Quantum Field Theory on Spacetimes with a Compactly Generated Cauchy Horizon
We prove two theorems which concern difficulties in the formulation of the quantum theory of a linear scalar field on a spacetime, (M,gab), with a compactly generated Cauchy horizon. These theorems demonstrate the breakdown of the theory at certain base points of the Cauchy horizon, which are defined as ‘past terminal accumulation points’ of the horizon generators. Thus, the theorems may be int...
متن کاملStructure of the Cauchy Horizon Singularity
We study the Cauchy horizon (CH) singularity of a spherical charged black hole perturbed nonlinearly by a self-gravitating massless scalar field. We show numerically that the singularity is weak both at the early and at the late sections of the CH, where the focusing of the area coordinate r is strong. In the early section the metric perturbations vanish, and the fields behave according to pert...
متن کاملOn the Rigidity Theorem for Spacetimes with a Stationary Event Horizon or a Compact Cauchy Horizon
We consider smooth electrovac spacetimes which represent either (A) an asymptotically flat, stationary black hole or (B) a cosmological spacetime with a compact Cauchy horizon ruled by closed null geodesics. The black hole event horizon or, respectively, the compact Cauchy horizon of these spacetimes is assumed to be a smooth null hypersurface which is non-degenerate in the sense that its null ...
متن کاملCauchy horizon singularity without mass inflation.
A perturbed Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter solution is used to emphasize the nature of the singularity along the Cauchy horizon of a charged spherically symmetric black hole. For these solutions, conditions may prevail under which the mass function is bounded and yet the curvature scalar R αβγδ R αβγδ diverges.
متن کاملOn rigidity of spacetimes with a compact Cauchy horizon
There is a great variety of solutions of Einstein’s equation which contain a smooth compact Cauchy horizon. However, all of these spacetimes can be considered as being generalizations of the Taub-NUT solution. In these spacetimes, the Cauchy horizon separates the globally hyperbolic region from a region which contains closed timelike curves. It is a common feature of all of these spacetimes tha...
