We construct analytic extensions of the Pomeransky-Senkov metrics with multiple Killing horizons and asymptotic regions. We show that, in our extensions, the singularities associated to an obstruction to differentiability of the metric lie…
We consider a class of black holes for which the area of the two-dimensional spatial cross-section has a minimum on the horizon with respect to a quasiglobal (Krusckal-like) coordinate. If the horizon is regular, one can generate a tubelike…
At the threshold of black hole formation in the gravitational collapse of a scalar field a naked singularity is formed through a universal critical solution that is discretely self-similar. We study the global spacetime structure of this…

Rotating stringy black hole solutions with non-vanishing dilaton $\phi$, antisymmetric tensor $B_{\mu\nu}$, and $U(1)$ gauge field $A_{\mu}$ are investigated. Both Boyer-Lindquist-like and Kerr-Schild-like coordinate are constructed. The…
In this paper, we construct a class of collapsing spacetimes in vacuum without any symmetries. The spacetime contains a black hole region which is bounded from the past by the future event horizon. It possesses a Cauchy hypersurface with…
A Penrose diagram is constructed for a spatially coherent black hole that smoothly begins an accretion, then excretes symmetrically as measured by a distant observer, with the initial and final states described by a metric of Minkowski…
I describe the general mathematical construction and physical picture of topological black holes, which are black holes whose event horizons are surfaces of non-trivial topology. The construction is carried out in an arbitrary number of…
Through an illuminating thought experiment we demonstrate that the nonsingular "continued collapse" picture of a black hole is the only consistent and physical one. We provide a class exact solutions on the boundary of the space of physical…
Global properties of vacuum static, spherically symmetric configurations are studied in a general class of scalar-tensor theories (STT) of gravity in various dimensions. The conformal mapping between the Jordan and Einstein frames is used…
The sequence of intertwined T-S-T duality transformations acting on the 4D static uncharged black hole leads to a new black hole background with horizon and singularity exchanged. It is shown that this space-time is extendible too. In…
A simple yet systematic new algorithm to investigate the global structure of Kerr-Newman spacetime is suggested. Namely, the global structure of \theta=const. timelike submanifolds of Kerr-Newman metric are studied by introducing a new time…
In the presence of compact dimensions massive solutions of General Relativity may take one of several forms including the black-hole and the black-string, the simplest relevant background being R^{3+1} * S^1. It is shown how Morse theory…
A finite subgroup of the conformal group SL(2,C) can be related to invariant polynomials on a hypersurface in C^3. The latter then carries a simple singularity, which resolves by a finite iteration of basic cycles of deprojections. The…
This paper considers generalised network, intended as networks where (a) the edges connecting the nodes are nonlinear, and (b) stochastic processes are continuously indexed over both vertices and edges. Such topological structures are…
The universe is filled with various compact objects and the most attractive of them are the black holes and singularity. But it is also known that at the singularity density becomes so infinitely high that the present physics knowledge…
The topological structure of the event horizon has been investigated in terms of the Morse theory. The elementary process of topological evolution can be understood as a handle attachment. It has been found that there are certain…

It is shown that a spacetime with collisionless matter evolving from data on a compact Cauchy surface with hyperbolic symmetry can be globally covered by compact hypersurfaces on which the mean curvature is constant and by compact…
Routing information through networks is a universal phenomenon in both natural and manmade complex systems. When each node has full knowledge of the global network connectivity, finding short communication paths is merely a matter of…
