We consider the problem of gravitational collapse of a fluid under the effect of a Schwarzschild black hole (e.g. a primordial one) that suddenly forms inside the fluid. We assume the fluid initially be a uniform dust. Starting from this…
In this paper, we study the collapse of a superhorizon-sized void in the early, radiation-dominated universe using an improved general relativistic code. We find that in general a relativistic or nonrelativistic void collapses via a shock…

We prove with an exact relativistic computation that the spherosymmetric gravitational collapses with a time-dependent pressure end in bodies with a small, but finite volume. Against a diffuse, wrong conviction.
In this paper we address the issue of black hole solutions in (1+1)-dimensional non-projectable Horava-Lifshitz gravity. We consider several models by considering different potentials in the scalar matter sector. We also consider the…
