Towards a singularity-proof scheme in numerical relativity

Towards a singularity-proof scheme in numerical relativity

Progress in numerical relativity has been hindered for 30 years because of the difficulties of avoiding spacetime singularities in numerical evolution. We propose a scheme which excises a region inside an apparent horizon containing the singularity. Two major ingredients of the scheme are the use of a horizon-locking coordinate and …
