Abstract: The following theorem is established. Among all static, asymptotically flat vacuum space-times with closed simply connected equipotential surfaces ${g}_{00}=\mathrm{constant}$, the Schwarzschild solution is the only one which has a nonsingular infinite-red-shift surface ${g}_{00}=0$. Thus there exists no static asymmetric perturbation of the Schwarzschild manifold due to internal sources (e.g., a quadrupole moment) which will preserve a regular event horizon. Possible implications of this result for asymmetric gravitational collapse are briefly discussed.

Local and global properties of spacetime solutions of the Einstein conformal scalar system
J Estevez-Delgado,Thomas Zannias +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors constructed families of inextendible spacetimes (M, g, Φ) where the field Φ diverges on a regular hypersurface and the divergence of Φ takes place on the boundary of the spacetime.

Shear Hell Holes and anisotropic universes
Bernard Carr,John D. Barrow +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that primordial black holes with shear could have even more dramatic properties than the usual stationary black holes, such as prolific generators of gravitational radiation and they could be associated with interesting quantum effects.

Weak cosmic censorship conjecture cannot be violated in gedanken experiments
Peng-Yu Wu,H. Khodabakhshi,H. Lü +2 more
TL;DR: Researchers investigate the Weak Cosmic Censorship Conjecture using gedanken experiments, classifying proposed violation scenarios and resolving contradictions, finding that WCCC is preserved for extremal black holes with W>0 and asymptotically-(A)dS black holes.

The master equations in the euclidean schwarzschild–tangherlini metric of a small static perturbation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the master equations in the Euclidean Schwarzschild-Tangherlini space-time of a small static perturbation and showed that for each harmonic mode on the sphere there are two solutions that behave differently at infinity.

Stability of a Schwarzschild Singularity
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a Schwarzschild singularity, spherically symmetrical and endowed with mass, will undergo small vibrations about the spherical form and therefore remain stable if subjected to a small nonspherical perturbation.

Maximal analytic extension of the Kerr metric
TL;DR: Kruskal's transformation of the Schwarzschild metric is generalized to apply to the stationary, axially symmetric vacuum solution of Kerr, and is used to construct a maximal analytic extension of the latter.

Collinear particles and bondi dipoles in general relativity
W. Israel,K. A. Khan +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a static vacuum line element is derived which represents the field of a collinear set of spherically symmetric masses and a limiting process applied to this line-element yields an explicit global solution of a problem first considered by Bondi.

Possible Instability in the Self-closure Phenomenon in Gravitational Collapse
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors point out that models with exact spherical symmetry possess idiosyncrasies which render them dangerous, and perhaps misleading, as a basis for induction, and they suggest that such models are not suitable for induction.
