Matter Maps to Geometry in Gravitational Collapse

H. Khodabakhshi, Zhi-Chao Li, H. Lu +1

We establish an exact bidirectional map between the effective homogeneous interior density of a collapsing star and the exterior metric function in generalized Oppenheimer--Snyder…

Classification of Oppenheimer-Snyder Collapse: Singular, Bouncing, and Soft-Landing Scenarios

Zhi-Chao Li, H. Khodabakhshi, H. Lu

We study Oppenheimer-Snyder (OS) gravitational collapse matched to a general static, spherically symmetric exterior spacetime. Unlike the Schwarzschild case, two new features can a…

The Upper Bound of Event Horizon Formation Time in Generalized Oppenheimer-Snyder Collapse

Zhi-Chao Li, H. Khodabakhshi, H. Lu

We prove that, in the framework of the Oppenheimer-Snyder collapse, the Schwarzschild exterior maximizes the event horizon formation time among all…

Gravitational Collapse: Generalizing Oppenheimer-Snyder and a Conjecture on Horizon Formation Time

H. Khodabakhshi, H. Lu, F. Shojai

We generalize the Oppenheimer-Snyder model of gravitational collapse by considering a broader class of static, spherically symmetric exterior spacetimes, with an interior geometry…

Weak Cosmic Censorship Conjecture Cannot be Violated in Gedanken Experiments

Peng-Yu Wu, H. Khodabakhshi, H. Lu

We innovate a systematic investigation of the Weak Cosmic Censorship Conjecture (WCCC) using gedanken experiments involving black hole perturbations by test particles. We classify…

Cosmology with Higher-Derivative Gravities

H. Khodabakhshi, M. Farhang, F. Shojai +1

We introduce an ingenious approach to explore cosmological implications of higher-derivative gravity theories. The key novelty lies in the characterization of the additional massiv…
