The energy density of the gravitational field is a full-fledged source of the gravitational field. This principle of Einstein was not implemented by him in the Einstein equation. Not long ago it was possible to find an energy-momentum…
Since Schwarzshild discovered the point-mass solution to Einstein's equations that bears his name, many equivalent forms of the metric have been catalogued. Using an elementary coordinate transformation, we derive the most general form for…

Regularity of the horizon radius $r_g$ of a collapsing body constrains a limiting form of a spherically-symmetric energy-momentum tensor near it. Its non-zero limit belongs to one of four classes that are distinguished only by two signs. As…
The singularity theorem by Hawking and Penrose qualifies Schwarzschild black-holes as geodesic incomplete space-times. Albeit this is a mathematically rigorous statement, it requires an operational framework that allows to probe the…

One crucial problem in relativistic astrophysics is that of the nature of black hole candidates. It is usually assumed that astrophysical black holes are described by the Schwarzschild or Kerr space-times; however, there is no direct…
In this paper I examine black hole and cosmological space-times in Born-Infeld-Einstein theory with electric and magnetic charges. The field equations are derived and written in the form $G_{\mu\nu}=-\kappa T_{\mu\nu}$ for spherically…
As is well-known, the Schwarzschild metric cannot be derived based on pre-general-relativistic physics alone, which means using only special relativity, the Einstein equivalence principle and the Newtonian limit. The standard way to derive…
A new spherically-symmetric solution for a gravitational field is found in the conformally-unimodular metric. It is shown, that the surface of the black hole horizon in the standard Schwarzschild metric can be squeezed to a point by…
We construct a new exact solution of Einstein's equations in vacuo in terms of Weyl canonical coordinates. This solution may be interpreted as a black hole in a space-time which is periodic in one direction and which behaves asymptotically…
Two solutions of the coupled Einstein-Maxwell field equations are found by means of the Horsky-Mitskievitch generating conjecture. The vacuum limit of those obtained classes of spacetimes is the seed gamma-metric and each of the generated…
