The Schwarzchild solution insertion in an expanding universe, the so-called "Swiss cheese model," is shown to possess a very unphysical property. Specifically, in this model some trajectories are discontinuous functions of their initial…
We examine whether the Schwarzschild black hole can emerge as the continuous end state of gravitational collapse from a non-singular configuration. Employing a time dependent extension of the regular Schwarzschild metric, we track the…
It is noted that the coordinate transformations usually used to demonstrate the continuity of geodesics at the Schwarzschild horizon are of class $C^0$, while the standard causality theory requires that the metric tensor to be at least…
We analyse the Schwarzschild solution in the context of the historical development of its present use, and explain the invariant definition of a singular surface at the Schwarzschild's radius, that can be applied to the Kerr-Newman solution…
In this paper, a geometric resolution of singularities algorithm is developed. This method is elementary in its statement and proof, using explicit coordinate systems as much as possible. Each coordinate change used in the resolution…
We consider the perturbation of the Schwarzschild solution by the perimeter action. The asymptotic behaviour of the solution at infinity and at the horizon are calculated and analysed in the first approximation. The perturbation is…
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…
Antoci et al. have argued that the horizons of the boost-rotation, Kerr and Schwarzschild solutions are singular, having shown that a certain invariantly-defined acceleration scalar blows up at the horizons. Their examples do not satisfy…
We discuss some of the geometric properties, such as the foliated Schwarz symmetry, the monotonicity along the axial and the affine-radial directions, of the first eigenfunctions of the Zaremba problem for the Laplace operator on annular…
This paper is concerned with the structure of the set of Riemannian metrics on a connected manifold such that the corresponding Laplace--Beltrami operator has an eigenvalue of a given multiplicity. The starting point of our investigation is…
The Lorentzian distance formula, conjectured several years ago by Parfionov and Zapatrin, has been recently proved by the second author. In this work we focus on the derivation of an equivalent expression in terms of the geometry of…
In recent papers on spacetimes with a signature-changing metric, the concept of a Lorentzian-Euclidean black hole and new elements for Lorentzian-Riemannian signature change have been introduced. A Lorentzian-Euclidean black hole is a…
The homotopy interleaving distance, a distance between persistent spaces, was introduced by Blumberg and Lesnick and shown to be universal, in the sense that it is the largest homotopy-invariant distance for which sublevel-set filtrations…
Two common misconceptions about the theory of Special Relativity that are actively taught in textbooks are discussed. It is shown, first, that the Lorentz transformations are actually transformations of the coordinates of a photon, not the…
For 0<n<d integers and r>2, we prove that an n-dimensional Ahlfors-David regular measure M in R^d is uniformly n-rectifiable if and only if the r-variation for the Riesz transform with respect to M is a bounded operator in L^2(M). This…
We apply a formulation of Einstein's general relativity with only cubic interactions for deriving the metric of a Schwarzschild black hole to all orders in perturbation theory. This cubic interactions formulation coupled to effective…
It has been recently claimed that the initial singularity might be avoided in the context of rainbow cosmology, where one attempts to account for quantum-gravitational corrections through an effective-theory description based on an…
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…
A metric more general than the Euclidean Schwarzschild-Tangherlini metric is considered. The cosmological constant is not necessarily Zero, and the hypersphere is replaced by an Einstein variety. A differential equation that derives from…
The modern notion of a black hole singularity is considered with reference to the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein's field equations of general relativity. A brief derivation of both the original and the modern line elements is given. The…
