Global models of collapsing scalar field: endstate

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2024-05-10 v1

Abstract

The study of dynamic singularity formation in spacetime, focusing on scalar field collapse models, is analysed. We revisit key findings regarding open spatial topologies, concentrating on minimal conditions necessary for singularity and apparent horizon formation. Moreover, we examine the stability of initial data in the dynamical system governed by Einstein's equations, considering variations in parameters that influence naked singularity formation. We illustrate how these results apply to a family of scalar field models, concluding with a discussion on the concept of genericity in singularity studies.
