On the Local Existence for the Characteristic Initial Value Problem in General Relativity
abstract
Given a truncated incoming null cone and a truncated outgoing null cone intersecting at a two sphere $S$ with smooth characteristic initial data, a theorem of Rendall shows that the vacuum Einstein equations can be solved in a small neighborhood of $S$ in the future of $S$. We show that in fact the vacuum Einstein equations can be solved in a neighborhood in the future of the cones, as long as the constraint equations are initially satisfied on the null cones. The proof is based on energy type estimates and relies heavily on the null structure of the Einstein equations in the double null foliation.

Formation of extremal Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes: insights from numerics
For several scalar-field profiles, extremal Reissner-Nordström black holes can be glued from collapse only above a profile-dependent threshold in eM, and only for scalar masses below about m/e≈0.28.
