Lemaitre was apparently the first to make an explicit coordinate transformation resulting in the removal of the singularity at r = a = 2m in the Schwarzschild metric, while Lanczos was the first to express doubts on the physical reality of…
The double Schwarzschild solution in the equal mass case is studied in bispherical coordinates. An explicit conformal transformation from cylindrical Weyl coordinates to bispherical coordinates is given in terms of elliptic functions. A…
It is shown that the Schwarzschild spacetime can be extended so that the metric becomes analytic at the singularity. The singularity continues to exist, but it is made degenerate and smooth, and the infinities are removed by an appropriate…
We consider a broad class of static, spherically symmetric generalized Schwarzschild-like solutions with multiple non-interacting anisotropic fluid sources and derive the coordinate transformation from Schwarzschild-like (curvature) to…
We reconsider the classical Schwarzschild solution in the context of a Janus cosmological model. We show that the central singularity can be eliminated through a simple coordinate change and that the subsequent transit from one fold to the…
The definition of well-behaved coordinate charts for black hole spacetimes can be tricky, as they can lead for example to either unphysical coordinate singularities in the metric (e.g. $r=2M$ in the Schwarzschild black hole) or to an…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author due to the triviality of the considered coordinate transformations. A consistent treatment, based on the extended physical radial coordinate, is presented in the publications of the author 2000 -…
Generally, the Schwarzschild black hole was proved stable through two different methods: the mode-decomposition method and the integral method. In the paper, we show the integral method can only apply to the initial data vanishing at both…
We consider the deformation of the Schwarzschild solution in general relativity due to spherically symmetric quantum fluctuations of the metric and the matter fields. In this case, the 4D theory of gravity with Einstein action reduces to…
The well-known Schwarzschild black hole was first obtained as a stationary, spherically symmetric solution of the Einstein's vacuum field equations. But until thirty years later, efforts were made for the analytic extension from the…
The static vacuum spherically symmetric solutions in massive gravity are obtained both analytically and numerically. The solutions depend on two parameters (integration constants): the mass M (or, equivalently, the Schwarzschild radius),…
We study the singularity created in the supercritical collapse of a spherical massless scalar field. We first model the geometry and the scalar field to be homogeneous, and find a generic solution (in terms of a formal series expansion)…
Every general relativity textbook emphasizes that coordinates have no physical meaning. Nevertheless, a coordinate choice must be made in order to carry out real calculations, and that choice can make the difference between a calculation…
In this paper, the Eddington-Finkelstein transformation is used as an illustration of how the problem of singularities or infinities can be removed by application of nonstandard analysis to the Schwarzschild line element (metric). The…
The M{\o}ller energy complex of Schwarzschild black hole solution in several coodinates are evaluated. Our results show that the M{\o}ller energy complex is independent of not only the purely spatial transformation, but also the shift of…
We derive loop quantum gravity corrections to the Raychaudhuri equation in the interior of a Schwarzschild black hole and near the classical singularity. We show that the resulting effective equation implies defocusing of geodesics due to…
Since its first introduction, the Schwarzschild metric has been written in various coordinate systems. This has been done primarily to understand the nature of the coordinate singularity at the event horizon. However, very often, the…
Starting from a general transformation for spherically symmetric metrics where g\_11=-1/g\_00, we analyze coordinates with the common property of conformal flatness at constant solid angle element. Three general possibilities arise: one…
The exterior and interior Schwarzschild solutions are rewritten replacing the usual radial variable with an angular one. This allows to obtain some results otherwise less apparent or even hidden in other coordinate systems.
A variety of historical coordinates in which the Schwarzschild metric is regular over the whole of the extended spacetime are compared and the hypersurfaces of constant coordinate are graphically presented. While the Kruscal form (one of…
