We carry out numerical simulations of the gravitational collapse of a perfect fluid with the ultrarelativistic equation of state $P=\kappa\rho$, in spherical symmetry in $2+1$ spacetime dimensions with $\Lambda<0$. At the threshold of…

A complete characterization is obtained of the asymptotic behavior of solutions of the static vacuum Einstein equations which have a (pseudo)-compact horizon or boundary and are complete away from the boundary. It is proved that the…
We consider anisotropic fluids with directional pressures $p_i = w_i \rho$ ($\rho$ is the density, $w_i = $const, $i = 1,2,3$) as sources of gravity in stationary cylindrically symmetric space-times. We describe a general way of obtaining…
