New black hole solutions cannot be rotated without breaking their structure.
It is expected that matter composed of a perfect fluid cannot be at rest outside of a black hole if the spacetime is asymptotically flat and static (non-rotating). However, there has not been a rigorous proof for this expectation without assuming spheical symmetry. In this paper, we provide a proof of non-existence of …
Alternative proof for static black hole uniqueness with nonpositive mass.
Paper proves uniqueness of black holes and photon surfaces in higher dimensions.
Uniqueness theorem for extremal charged black holes in de Sitter space.
The celebrated uniqueness's theorem of the Schwarzschild solution by Israel, Robinson et al, and Bunting/Masood-ul-Alam, asserts that the only asymptotically flat static solution of the vacuum Einstein equations with compact but non-necessarily connected horizon is Schwarzschild. Between this article and its sequel we …
The paper confirms the existence of 5D regular static vacuum solutions with multiple black holes and Kasner asymptotics.
This is the second article of a series or two, proving a generalisation of the uniqueness theorem of the Schwarzschild solution. The theorem to be shown classifies all (metrically complete) solutions of the static vacuum Einstein equations with compact but non-necessarily connected horizon without any further assumptio…
In a seminal paper of 1917, H. Weyl presented a remarkable reduction of the static axisymmetric vacuum Einstein equations, serving as a relatively straightforward technique to generate and explore new solutions. Weyl's reduction was used by Myers in 1987, and independently by Korotkin-Nicolai in 1994, to construct a ne…
New black hole solutions with positive and negative masses in 4 and 5 dimensions.
This paper explores charged black holes in 3+1 dimensions, finding limitations on their existence.
We construct new classes of exact solutions of the 4D vacuum Einstein equations which describe ellipsoidal black holes, black tori and combined black hole -- black tori configurations. The solutions can be static or with anisotropic polarizations and running constants. They are defined by off--diagonal metric ansatz wh…
In a recent paper, the authors established the uniqueness of photon spheres in static vacuum asymptotically flat spacetimes by adapting Bunting and Masood-ul-Alam's proof of static vacuum black hole uniqueness. Here, we establish uniqueness of suitably defined sub-extremal photon spheres in static electro-vacuum asympt…
In a recent paper the first author established the uniqueness of photon spheres, suitably defined, in static vacuum asymptotically flat spacetimes by adapting Israel's proof of static black hole uniqueness. In this note we establish uniqueness of photon spheres by adapting the argument of Bunting and Masood-ul-Alam, wh…
We show that the recent work of Lee [23] implies existence of a large class of new singularity-free strictly static Lorentzian vacuum solutions of the Einstein equations with a negative cosmological constant. This holds in all space-time dimensions greater than or equal to four, and leads both to strictly static soluti…
We prove the existence and the uniqueness of the static dyonic black holes in four dimensional supergravity theory coupled vector and scalar multiplets. We set the near-horizon geometry to be a product of two Einstein surfaces, whereas the asymptotic geometry has to be a space of constant scalar curvature. Using …
Adapting Israel's proof of static black hole uniqueness, we show that the Schwarzschild spacetime is the only static vacuum asymptotically flat spacetime that possesses a suitably defined photon sphere.
Warped-product black hole spacetimes are -inextendible.
Formula for BPS black hole entropy derived from Vinberg cones.
A spacetime is a connected 4-dimensional semi-Riemannian manifold endowed with a metric with signature . The geometry of a spacetime is described by the metric tensor and the Ricci tensor of type whereas the energy momentum tensor of type describes the physical contents of the sp…
Researchers extend microlocal analysis across event horizons of rotating black holes.
Marginally outer trapped surfaces are widely considered as the best quasi-local replacements for event horizons of black holes in General Relativity. However, this equivalence is far from being proved, even in stationary and static situations. In this paper we study an important aspect of this equivalence, namely wheth…
We construct a large class of new singularity-free static Lorentzian four-dimensional solutions of the vacuum Einstein equations with a negative cosmological constant. The new families of metrics contain space-times with, or without, black hole regions. Two uniqueness results are also established.
We show that Wang's proof of uniqueness of Anti-de Sitter spacetime can be adapted to provide uniqueness results for strictly static asymptotically locally hyperbolic vacuum metrics with toroidal infinity, and to prove negativity of the free energy of asymptotically AdS black holes with higher-genus horizons.
The main aim of this thesis is to study the properties of trapped surfaces in spacetimes with symmetries and their possible relation with the theory of black holes. We will concetrate specially on one aspect of this possible equivalence, namely whether the static black hole uniqueness theorems extend to static spacetim…
New black hole solutions with lens space horizons in 5D Kaluza-Klein theory.
Gradient flow in a potential energy (or Euclidean action) landscape provides a natural set of paths connecting different saddle points. We apply this method to General Relativity, where gradient flow is Ricci flow, and focus on the example of 4-dimensional Euclidean gravity with boundary S^1 x S^2, representing the can…
We show that in any spacetime dimension , degenerate components of the event horizon do not exist in static vacuum configurations with positive cosmological constant. We also show that without a cosmological constant asymptotically flat solutions cannot possess a degenerate horizon component. Several independen…
Counterexample found to estimate for skew-symmetric tensors.
We study the perturbations of two classes of static black ellipsoid solutions of four dimensional vacuum Einstein equations. Such solutions are described by generic off--diagonal metrics which are generated by anholonomic transforms of diagonal metrics. The analysis is performed in the approximation of small eccentrici…
Proves uniqueness of certain -symmetric gravitational instantons.
We construct new classes of exact solutions in metric--affine gravity (MAG) with string corrections by the antisymmetric --field. The solutions are parametrized by generic off--diagonal metrics possessing noncommutative symmetry associated to anholonomy framerelations and related nonlinear connection (N--connection)…
In this paper we consider an Einstein-type equation which generalizes important geometric equations, like static and critical point equations. We prove that a complete Einstein-type manifold with fourth-order divergence-free Weyl tensor and zero radial Weyl curvature is locally a warped product with -dimensional…
The horizon and geodesic structure of static configurations generated by anisotropic conformal transforms of the Schwarzschild metric is analyzed. We construct the maximal analytic extension of such off--diagonal vacuum metrics and conclude that for small deformations there are different classes of vacuum solutions of …
In this paper we present a new approach to the study of asymptotically flat static metrics arising in general relativity. In the case where the static potential is bounded, we introduce new quantities which are proven to be monotone along the level set flow of the potential function. We then show how to use these prope…
A complete characterization is obtained of the asymptotic behavior of solutions of the static vacuum Einstein equations which have a (pseudo)-compact horizon or boundary and are complete away from the boundary. It is proved that the time-symmetric space-like hypersurface has only finitely many ends, each of which is ei…
The paper classifies electrovacuum spaces in higher dimensions, proving several key results.
It is formulated a new 'anholonomic frame' method of constructing exact solutions of Einstein equations with off--diagonal metrics in 4D and 5D gravity. The previous approaches and results are summarized and generalized as three theorems which state the conditions when two types of ansatz result in integrable gravitati…
In this work, we consider solutions of the Maxwell equations on the Schwarzschild-de Sitter family of black hole spacetimes. We prove that, in the static region bounded by black hole and cosmological horizons, solutions of the Maxwell equations decay to stationary Coulomb solutions at a super-polynomial rate, with deca…
In this paper, we study vacuum static spaces with the complete divergence of the Bach tensor and Weyl tensor. First, we prove that the vanishing of complete divergence of the Bach tensor and Weyl tensor implies the harmonicity of the metric, and we present examples in which these conditions do not imply Bach flatness. …
Using black-hole inequalities and the increase of the horizon's areas, we show that there are arbitrarily small electro-vacuum perturbations of the standard initial data of the extreme Reissner-Nordstrom black-hole that, (by contradiction), cannot decay in time into any extreme Kerr-Newman black-hole. This proves the e…
Over the past three decades, black holes have played an important role in quantum gravity, mathematical physics, numerical relativity and gravitational wave phenomenology. However, conceptual settings and mathematical models used to discuss them have varied considerably from one area to another. Over the last five year…
New gravitational solitons and infinite topological manifolds found.
We study some aspects of spherical symmetric dyonic non-supersymmetric black holes in supergravity coupled to chiral and vector multiplets on Kähler-Ricci solitons. Then, we have a family of dyonic non-supersymmetric black holes deformed with respect to the flow parameter related to the Kähler-Ricci soliton…
Proof of reverse isoperimetric inequality for black holes.
This is the second of two works, in which we discuss the definition of an appropriate notion of mass for static metrics, in the case where the cosmological constant is positive and the model solutions are compact. In the first part, we have established a positive mass statement, characterising the de Sitter solution as…
The field equation for a spin 1/2 massive charged particle propagating in spacetimes that are the direct product of 2-dimensional spaces is separated. Moreover, we use this result to attain the separability of the Dirac equation in some specific static black hole solutions whose horizons have topology $\mathbb{R}\times…
