We study the dynamics near finite-time singularities of flat isotropic universes filled with two interacting but otherwise arbitrary perfect fluids. The overall dynamical picture reveals a variety of asymptotic solutions valid locally…
We study an analytical solution to the Einstein's equations in 2+1-dimensions, representing the self-similar collapse of a circularly symmetric, minimally coupled, massless, scalar field. Depending on the value of certain parameters, this…
Discretely self-similar solutions govern critical gravitational collapse and have been known only numerically since Choptuik's pioneering work. We construct, in closed analytic form, an infinite family of such solutions of the…
Seminar held at JINR, Dubna, May 15, 2012. In General Relativity, spacetime singularities raise a number of problems, both mathematical and physical. One can identify a class of singularities - with smooth but degenerate metric - which,…
We present a renormalization group analysis to Einstein-Rosen waves or vacuum spacetimes with whole-cylinder symmetry. It is found that self-similar solutions appear as fixed points in the renormalization group transformation. These…
The Riemann, Ricci and Einstein tensors for N-dimensional spherically symmetric spacetimes in various systems of coordinates are studied, and the general metric for conformally flat spacetimes is given. As an application, all the…
We present time-dependent analytic solutions to the Einstein equations coupled with a dilaton (scalar) field. The background geometry for the solutions is a product of an N-dimensional spherically symmetric space and a d-dimensional flat…
Recent results show that important singularities in General Relativity can be naturally described in terms of finite and invariant canonical geometric objects. Consequently, one can write field equations which are equivalent to Einstein's…
We study the spherical gravitational collapse of a compact object under the approximation that the radial pressure is identically zero, and the tangential pressure is related to the density by a linear equation of state. It turns out that…
Gravitational critical collapse in the Einstein-axion-dilaton system is known to lead to continuous self-similar solutions characterized by the Choptuik critical exponent $\gamma$. We complete the existing literature on the subject by…
Einstein's theory of general relativity models the physical universe using spacetimes which satisfy Einstein's gravitational field equations. To date, Einstein's theory has been enormously successful in modeling observed gravitational…
We investigate here gravitational collapse of a perfect fluid with a linear isentropic equation of state $p = k \rho$. A class of collapse models is given which is a family of solutions to Einstein equations and the final fate of collapse…
In this article, we present a gravitational collapse null dust solution of the Einstein field equations. The spacetime is regular everywhere except on the symmetry axis where it possesses a naked curvature singularity, and admits one…
The study of dynamic singularity formation in spacetime, focusing on scalar field collapse models, is analysed. We revisit key findings regarding open spatial topologies, concentrating on minimal conditions necessary for singularity and…
Basis and limitations of singularity theorems for Gravity are examined. As singularity is a critical situation in course of time, study of time paths, in full generality of Equivalence principle, provides two mechanisms to prevent…
We consider a spherical gravitational collapse of inhomogeneous dust (and null dust) in Einstein gravity with the Gauss-Bonnet (GB) combination of quadratic curvature terms. It turns out that the presence of the coupling constant of the GB…
The stability analysis of self-similar solutions is an important approach to confirm whether they act as an attractor in general non-self-similar gravitational collapse. Assuming that the collapsing matter is a perfect fluid with the…
A new numerical framework, based on the use of a simple first order strongly hyperbolic evolution equations, is introduced and tested in case of 4-dimensional spherically symmetric gravitating systems. The analytic setup is chosen such that…
We consider the problem of critical gravitational collapse of a scalar field in 2+1 dimensions with spherical (circular) symmetry. After surveying all the analytic, continuously self-similar solutions and considering their global structure,…
This paper is devoted to study the gravitational charged perfect fluid collapse in the Friedmann universe models with cosmological constant. For this purpose, we assume that the electromagnetic field is so weak that it does not introduce…
