Gravitational collapse of homogeneous perfect fluid in HOG theories

arXiv:0811.4570 · doi:10.1063/1.3032755

Abstract

This paper investigates the evolution of collapsing FRW models with a scalar field having the potential which arises in the conformal frame of high order gravity theories, coupled to matter described by a perfect fluid with energy density and pressure , obeying a barotropic equation of state. The solutions are shown to evolve generically to a singular state in a finite time and they are used as sources for radiating objects undergoing complete gravitational collapse. Although these singularities may be naked in some special case, it is shown that generically a black hole forms.
