Gravitational collapse of a homogeneous scalar field in deformed phase space

Non-Singular Gravitational Collapse of a Homogeneous Scalar Field in Deformed Phase Space

Abstract—In the present work, we revisit the collapse process of a spherically symmetric homogeneous scalar field (in FRW background) minimally coupled to gravity, when the phase-space deformations are taken into account. Such a deformation is mathematically introduced as a particular type of noncommutativity between the canonical momenta of the scale factor and of the scalar field. In the abse...

Gravitational Collapse of Homogeneous Scalar Fields

Conditions under which gravity coupled to self interacting scalar field determines singularity formation are found and discussed. It is shown that, under a suitable matching with an external space, the boundary, if collapses completely, may give rise to a naked singularity. Issues related to the strength of the singularity are discussed.

Mode-Coupling in Rotating Gravitational Collapse of a Scalar Field

We present an analytic study of the mode-coupling phenomena for a scalar field propagating on a rotating Kerr background. Physically, this phenomena is caused by the dragging of reference frames, due to the black-hole (or star’s) rotation. We find that different modes become mixed during the evolution and the asymptotic late-time tails are dominated by a mode which, in general, has an angular d...

Numerical simulations of the gravitational collapse for a massless scalar field in anti-de Sitter space

Space-Time Description of Scalar Particle Creation by a Homogeneous Isotropic Gravitational Field

We give the generalization of the method of the space-time description of particle creation by a gravitational field for a scalar field with nonconformal coupling to the curvature. The space-time correlation function is obtained for a created pair of the quasi-particles, corresponding to a diagonal form of the instantaneous Hamiltonian. The case of an adiabatic change of the metric of homogeneo...
