This is the first in a series of articles on the numerical solution of Friedrich's conformal field equations for Einstein's theory of gravity. We will discuss in this paper why one should be interested in applying the conformal method to physical problems and why there is good hope that this might even be a good idea from the numerical point of view. We describe in detail the derivation of the conformal field equations in the spinor formalism which we use for the implementation of the equations, and present all the equations as a reference for future work. Finally, we discuss the implications of the assumptions of a continuous symmetry.

    gr-qc 2025-04 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A hierarchical, boundary-regular affine-null form of the conformal Einstein-scalar equations is derived, shown equivalent to compactified physical-space equations, and used to extract the news function at null infinity.
