Naked Singularities for the Einstein Vacuum Equations: The Exterior Solution
- đ¤ Speaker: Yakov Shlapentokh-Rothman (Princeton University)
- đ Date & Time: Friday 12 June 2020, 16:00 - 17:00
- đ Venue: Zoom
Abstract
We will start by recalling the weak cosmic censorship conjecture. Then we will review Christodoulou’s construction of naked singularities for the spherically symmetric Einstein-scalar field system. Finally, we will discuss joint work with Igor Rodnianski which constructs spacetimes corresponding to the exterior region of a naked singularity for the Einstein vacuum equations
