Abstract

We give circularly symmetric solutions for null fluid collapse in 2+1-dimensional Einstein gravity with a cosmological constant. The fluid pressure PP and energy density ρ\rho are related by P=kρP=k\rho (k1)(k\le 1). The long time limit of the solutions are black holes whose horizon structures depend on the value of kk. The k=1k=1 solution is the Banados-Teitelboim-Zanelli black hole metric in the long time static limit, while the k<1k<1 solutions give other, `hairy' black hole metrics in this limit.
