On global existence for the spherically symmetric Einstein-Vlasov system in Schwarzschild coordinates
Journal article, 2007

The spherically symmetric Einstein-Vlasov system in Schwarzschild coordinates (i.e., polar slicing and areal radial coordinate) is considered. An improved continuation criterion for global existence of classical solutions is given. Two other types of criteria which prevent finite time blow-up are also given.

Continuation criteria

Einstein-Vlasov

Cosmic censorship

Gravitational collapse
