Fractal Threshold Behavior in Vacuum Gravitational Collapse

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2008-11-26 v2

Abstract

We present the numerical evidence for fractal threshold behavior in the five dimensional vacuum Einstein equations satisfying the cohomogeneity-two triaxial Bianchi type-IX ansatz. In other words, we show that a flip of the wings of a butterfly may influence the process of the black hole formation.
