We propose a unified version of hoop conjecture valid for various black holes and horizonless compact stars. This conjecture is expressed by the mass to circumference ratio $4\pi M_{in}/C\leqslant 1$, where C is the circumference of the…
Recently, with numerical methods, Hod clarified the validity of Thorne hoop conjecture for spatially regular static charged fluid spheres, which were considered as counterexamples against the hoop conjecture. In this work, we provide an…
The hoop conjecture is well confirmed in momentarily static spaces, but it has not been investigated systematically for the system with relativistic motion. To confirm the hoop conjecture for non-time-symmetric initial data, we consider the…
The hoop conjecture, introduced by Thorne almost five decades ago, asserts that black holes are characterized by the mass-to-circumference relation $4\pi {\cal M}/{\cal C}\geq1$, whereas horizonless compact objects are characterized by the…
The famous hoop conjecture by Thorne has been claimed to be\ violated in curved spacetimes coupled to linear electrodynamics. Hod \cite{Hod:2018} has recently refuted this claim by clarifying the status and validity of the conjecture…
We investigate the validity of Thorne's hoop conjecture in non-axisymmetric spacetimes by examining the formation of apparent horizons numerically. If spaces have a discrete symmetry about one axis, we can specify the boundary conditions to…
By analyzing the apparent horizon (AH) formation in the collision of two pp-waves with rectangular sources in four dimensions, we study to what extent the AH can be distorted without violating the energy conditions. It is shown that the…
The status and regime of validity of the famous Thorne hoop conjecture in spatially regular {\it charged} curved spacetimes are clarified.
We give general sufficient conditions for the existence of trapped surfaces due to concentration of matter in spherically symmetric initial data sets satisfying the dominant energy condition. These results are novel in that they apply and…
In a recent paper, Hod started a study on no scalar hair theorem for asymptotically flat spherically symmetric neutral horizonless reflecting compact stars. In fact, Hod's approach only rules out massive scalar fields. In the present paper,…
In the background of isotropic horizonless spheres, Hod recently provided an analytical proof of a bound on the compactness at the innermost light ring with the dominant energy and non-negative trace conditions. In this work, we extend the…
A reformulation of the Hoop Conjecture based on the concept of trapped circle is presented. The problems of severe compactness in every spatial direction, and of how to superpose the hoops with the surface of the black hole, are resolved. A…
The initial data of gravity for a cylindrical matter distribution confined to a brane are studied in the framework of the single-brane Randall-Sundrum scenario. In this scenario, the 5-dimensional nature of gravity appears in the…
I propose a sharp form of Thorne's hoop conjecture which relates Birkhoff's invariant $\beta$ for an outermost apparent horizon to its $ADM$ mass, $ \beta \le 4 \pi M_{ADM}$. I prove the conjecture in the case of collapsing null shells and…
By a combination of analytical and numerical methods, the density profile of a momentarily at rest spherical star is varied, and the corresponding response in the area of the spherical shells is monitored. It is shown that the inner…
It is usually accepted to consider an apsidal motion in binary stars as a direct confirmation that a substance inside stars is not uniformly distributed. It is shown in this paper that the apsidal motion in binary systems observation data…
A precise formulation of the hoop conjecture for four-dimensional spacetimes proposes that the Birkhoff invariant \beta for an apparent horizon in a spacetime with mass M should satisfy \beta \le 4\pi M. The invariant \beta is the least…
Assuming the hoop conjecture in classical general relativity and quantum mechanics, any observer who attempts to perform an experiment in an arbitrarily small region will be stymied by the formation of a black hole within the spatial domain…
The problem of a spherically symmetric charged thin shell of dust collapsing gravitationally into a charged Reissner-Nordstr\"om black hole in $d$ spacetime dimensions is studied within the theory of general relativity. Static charged…
In the present work, we attempt to find a new class of solutions for the spherically symmetric perfect fluid sphere by employing the Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM), a new tool via which the mass polynomial function facilitates to tackle…
