Abstract

We continue our examination of the constraints in spherically symmetric general relativity begun in I (gr-qc/9411009) and II (gr-qc/9411010). We extend to general configurations with J0J\ne 0 the analysis of II which treated a moment of time symmetry. We exploit the one parameter family of foliations introduced in I which are linear and homogeneous in the extrinsic curvature to characterize apparent horizons and spatial singularities in the initial data. In particular, we demonstrate that these characterizations do not depend sensitively on the foliation.
