The Initial-Value Problem of Spherically Symmetric Wyman Sector Nonsymmetric Gravitational Theory

We cast the four-dimensional field equations of the Nonsymmetric Gravitational Theory (NGT) into a form appropriate for numerical study. In doing so, we have restricted ourselves to spherically symmetric spacetimes, and we have kept only the Wyman sector of the theory. We investigate the well-posedness of the initial-value problem of NGT for a particular data set consisting of a pulse in the antisymmetric field on an asymptotically flat space background. We include some analytic results on the solvability of the initial-value problem which allow us to place limits on the regions of the parameter space where the initial-value problem is solvable. These results are confirmed by numerically solving the constraints.
