( plural )
Quizzes for review
In a closed space-time, especially for an Einstein cylinder, null infinity for a given point is the limit of convergence of the light cone most distant from the given point. That is, it is the limit of a set of points that each have a time-like separation from every point that has a space-like separation from the given point.

When studying the causal structure of the Einstein cylinder, researchers frequently analyze how the light cones for a given event converge toward null infinity to determine which regions are forever causally separated.
