We find a rotating Kaluza-Klein black hole solution with a squashed $S^3$ horizon in five dimensions. This is a Kerr counterpart of the charged one found by Ishihara and Matsuno (hep-th/0510094) recently. The space-time is geodesic complete…

A seemingly natural mechanism is proposed, that could stop the gravitational collapse of a very massive body. Without needing to change the concept of the collapsing process itself, that is, without invoking thin layers nor resorting to…
