Horizons in matter: black hole hair vs. Null Big Bang
Abstract
It is shown that only particular kinds of matter (in terms of the "radial" pressure to density ratio ) can coexist with Killing horizons in black-hole or cosmological space-times. Thus, for arbitrary (not necessarily spherically symmetric) static black holes, admissible are vacuum matter (, i.e., the cosmological constant or some its generalization) and matter with certain values of between 0 and -1, in particular, a gas of disordered cosmic strings (). If the cosmological evolution starts from a horizon (the so-called Null Big Bang scenarios), this horizon can co-exist with vacuum matter and certain kinds of phantom matter with . It is concluded that normal matter in such scenarios is entirely created from vacuum.
