Stationary, axisymmetric and asymptotically flat spacetimes of dust of which trajectories are integral curves of the time translation Killing vector are investigated. The flow has no Newtonian limit. Asymptotic flatness implies the…
We discuss spherically symmetric perfect fluid solutions of Einstein's equations which have equation of state ($p=\alpha \mu$) and which are self-similar in the sense that all dimensionless variables depend only upon $z\equiv r/t$. For each…
In this paper we analyze spherically symmetric static vacuum solutions with various topologies in mimetic gravity. When the Einstein's tensor is different from zero, a new class of solutions different from the Schwarzschild one emerges from…

In this lecture we will show some properties of a singularity-free solution to Einstein's equations and its accordance with some theorems dealing with singularities. We will also discuss the implications of the results.
A new method is proposed, that establishes a one to one correspondance between the whole set of static axially symmetric vacuum GR solutions and a specific class of stationary axially symmetric scalar-Einstein solutions having a given mass…
Recent works by the second author and Maxwell et al. have shown that the Einstein-scalar field conformal constraint equations are highly complex and generally intractable, even in the vacuum case. In this article, to gain a clearer…
We numerically study the dynamics of an imploding hollow cylinder composed of dust. Since there is no cylindrical black hole in 4-dimensional spacetime with physically reasonable energy conditions, a collapsed dust cylinder involves a naked…
