McVittie's solution of Einstein's field equations, representing a point mass embedded into an isotropic universe, possesses a scalar curvature singularity at proper radius $R=2m$. The singularity is space-like and precedes, in the expanding…
McVittie's spacetime is a spherically symmetric solution to Einstein's equation with an energy-momentum tensor of a perfect fluid. It describes the external field of a single quasi-isolated object with vanishing electric charge and angular…
A generalization of the McVittie solution, representing spacetime of a mass particle placed in (n+2) dimensional Robertson-Walker universe is reported.
The integral of the energy density function $\mathfrak m$ of a closed Robertson-Walker (RW) spacetime with source a perfect fluid and cosmological constant $\Lambda$ gives rise to an action functional on the space of scale functions of RW…
Whereas current cosmological observations suggest that the universe is dominated by a positive cosmological constant ($\Lambda > 0$), the AdS/CFT correspondence tells us that the case $\Lambda<0$ is still worthy of consideration. In this…
McVittie spacetimes embed the vacuum Schwarzschild(-(anti) de Sitter) spacetime in an isotropic FLRW background universe. We study the global structure of McVittie spacetimes with spatially non-flat FLRW backgrounds. This requires the…
Wheeler-DeWitt equation is applied to $k > 0$ Friedmann Robertson Walker metric with various types of matter. It is shown that if the Universe ends in the matter dominated era (e.g., radiation or pressureless gas) with zero cosmological…
The two-parameter charged McVittie solution of the Einstein equations is revisited and its apparent horizons are discussed and located numerically (for the extremal case, analytically). According to the parameter values, this spacetime can…
We study the existence of black holes in a homogeneous and isotropic expanding Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe dominated by dark energy. We show that black holes can exist in such a universe by considering some specific McVittie…
The cosmological principle, promoting the view that the universe is homogeneous and isotropic, is embodied within the mathematical structure of the Robertson-Walker (RW) metric. The equations derived from an application of this metric to…
We study spherically symmetric geometries made of anisotropic perfect fluid based on general relativity. The purpose of the work is to find and classify black hole solutions in closed spacetime. In a general setting, we find that a static…
In 1963, Zel'dovich devised a method to define the mass of a closed Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe, showing that by this definition it is exactly zero. Rounding out this result, we show that the masses of flat and open universes…
Einstein-Vlasov system is solved for a homogeneous isotropic spacetime with positive curvature. In the case of the Universe consisting of massless particles the equation for R(t) is solved analytically.
A minimum length universe is enforced via a diffusive Markovian field. Requiring the invariance of the proper time functional under spacetime transformations generated by such fields provides us with many new terms added to the Christoffel…
The fundamental singularity theorem of FLRW cosmologies assumes that the matter content in the cosmological model obeys the strong energy condition along with a nonpositive cosmological constant which gives rise to an irrotational geodesic…
We show that a single imperfect fluid can be used as a source to obtain the generalized McVittie metric as an exact solution to Einstein's equations. The mass parameter in this metric varies with time thanks to a mechanism based on the…
We investigate the possibility that the matter of the universe has a significant component (the quintessence component) determined by the equation of state $p=w\rho$, with $w<0$. Here, we find conditions under which a closed model may look…
In this paper, we obtain exact cosmological vacuum solutions for an extended FLRW homogenous and isotropic Brans-Dicke (BD) universe in five dimensions for all values of the curvature index. Then, by employing the equations associated to a…
We find an exact solution of Scalar-Tensor-Vector Gravity field equations that represents a black hole embedded in an expanding universe. This is the first solution of the kind found in the theory. We analyze the properties of the apparent…
Minkowski space is shown to be globally stable as a solution to the Einstein--Vlasov system in the case when all particles have zero mass. The proof proceeds by showing that the matter must be supported in the "wave zone", and then proving…
