abstract

When the term ``black hole'' was originally coined in 1968, it was immediately conjectured that the only pure vacuum equilibrium states were those of the Kerr family. Efforts to confirm this made rapid progress during the ``classical phase'' from 1968 to 1975, and some gaps in the argument have been closed during more recent years. However the presently available demonstration is still subject to undesirably restrictive assumptions such as non-degeneracy of the horizon, as well as analyticity and causality in the exterior.

The third wheel: ringdown and lensing of triple systems

gr-qc · 2026-05-19 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Numerical relativity simulations of triple black hole systems reveal redshift effects and gravitational lensing in ringdown signals from head-on mergers, with no additional black hole formation from amplified waves.
