The trapped region

Abstract

I will discuss some recent results on marginally outer trapped surfaces, apparent horizons, and the trapped region. A couple of applications of the results developed for marginally outer trapped surfaces to coalescence of black holes and to the characterization of the trapped region are given.

talk given at ERE08, Salamanca. To appear in proceedings of ERE08. v2: Minor typos fixed
