Spherical gravitational collapse in 5D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity

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 terms $α> 0$ completely changes the causal structure of the singularities from the analogous general relativistic case. The gravitational collapse of inhomogeneous dust in the five-dimensional GB extended Einstein equations leads to formation of a massive, but weak, timelike singularity which is forbidden in general relativity. The apparent horizons of two different collapsing solutions show interesting mathematical similarity.

Exact non-spherical relativistic star

We obtain Vaidya-like solutions to include both a null fluid and a string fluid in non-spherical (plane symmetric and cylindrical symmetric) anti-de Sitter space-times. Assuming that string fluid diffuse, we find exact solutions of Einstein's field equations. Thus we extend a recent work of Glass and Krisch \cite {gk} to non-spherical anti-de Sitter space-times.

Higher dimensional dust collapse with a cosmological constant

The general solution of the Einstein equation for higher dimensional (HD) spherically symmetric collapse of inhomogeneous dust in presence of a cosmological term, i.e., exact interior solutions of the Einstein field equations is presented for the HD Tolman-Bondi metrics imbedded in a de Sitter background. The solution is then matched to exterior HD Scwarschild-de Sitter. A brief discussion on the causal structure singularities and horizons is provided. It turns out that the collapse proceed in the same way as in the Minkowski background, i.e., the strong curvature naked singularities form and that the higher dimensions seem to favor black holes rather than naked singularities.

The role of the equation of state and the space-time dimension in spherical collapse

We study the spherically symmetric collapse of a fluid with non-vanishing radial pressure in higher dimensional space-time. We obtain the general exact solution in the closed form for the equation of state ($P_r = γρ$) which leads to the explicit construction of the root equation governing the nature (black hole versus naked singularity) of the central singularity. A remarkable feature of the root equation is its invariance for the three cases: (${D+1}, {γ= -1}$), (${D}, {γ= 0}$) and (${D - 1}, {γ= 1}$) where $D$ is the dimension of space-time. That is, for the ultimate end result of the collapse, $D$-dimensional dust, ${D+1}$ - AdS (anti de Sitter)-like and ${D-1}$ - dS-like are absolutely equivalent.

Gravitational Collapse of Perfect Fluid in Self-Similar Higher Dimensional Space-Times

We investigate the occurrence and nature of naked singularities in the gravitational collapse of an adiabatic perfect fluid in self-similar higher dimensional space-times. It is shown that strong curvature naked singularities could occur if the weak energy condition holds. Its implication for cosmic censorship conjecture is discussed. Known results of analogous studies in four dimensions can be recovered.
