The Euler Characteristic of Stationary Spacetimes Containing Black Holes
نویسنده
چکیده
The Euler characteristic of asymptotically flat, stationary vacuum spacetimes is calculated based on compactifications and Lefschetz’s fixed point formula. It turns out that it can be zero or two.

Black holes surrounded by uniformly rotating rings
Black Holes have grown to become a well accepted member of the canon of astrophysical objects. Nonetheless, there is still very little known about spacetimes containing both matter and Black Holes. But for a few exceptions (e.g. the Oppenheimer-Snyder collapse), such situations have been considered using approximation methods, perturbation techniques or pioneering, but still somewhat inaccurate...
متن کاملRigidity of marginally trapped surfaces and the topology of black holes
In a recent paper GS [13] the author and Rick Schoen obtained a generalization to higher dimensions of a classical result of Hawking concerning the topology of black holes. It was proved that, apart from certain exceptional circumstances, cross sections of the event horizon, in the stationary case, and ‘weakly outermost’ marginally outer trapped surfaces, in the general case, in black hole spac...
متن کاملNegative Komar mass of single objects in regular, asymptotically flat spacetimes
We study two types of axially symmetric, stationary and asymptotically flat spacetimes using highly accurate numerical methods. One type contains a black hole surrounded by a perfect fluid ring and the other a rigidly rotating disc of dust surrounded by such a ring. Both types of spacetime are regular everywhere (outside of the horizon in the case of the black hole) and fulfil the requirements ...
متن کاملGeometry of the extreme Kerr black hole
Geometrical properties of the extreme Kerr black holes in the topological sectors of nonextreme and extreme configurations are studied. We find that the Euler characteristic plays an essential role to distinguish these two kinds of extreme black holes. The relationship between the geometrical properties and the intrinsic thermodynamics
متن کاملThe GEMS Approach to Stationary Motions in the Spherically Symmetric Spacetimes
We generalize the work of Deser and Levin on the unified description of Hawking radiation and Unruh effect to general stationary motions in spherically symmetric black holes. We have also matched the chemical potential term of the thermal spectrum of the two sides for uncharged black holes.
