6 Introduction Topological black holes Topological black holes 4-dimensional topological black holes have been considered in the literature. In these one replaces the spherically symmetric Kottler solution (i.e. Schwarzschild de Sitter or Schwarzschild anti de Sitter) by its planar or hyperbolic counterparts. Modding out by discrete subgroup of R 2 or SL(2, R) yields black holes with toroidal or higher genus horizons. José Natário (IST, Lisbon) Higher-dimensional Topological Black Holes IST / 23

16 Einstein manifolds Introduction Einstein manifolds dσ 2 typically has a singularity at ρ = 0: the Kretschmann scalar K is related to the square C 2 of the Weyl tensor of dσ 2 by K = C 2 f 4 + const. This can be avoided for k < 0 with f = e ±νρ, when the metric has an internal infinity (cusp), or f = cosh(νρ), when the metric has a minimal surface and a second asymptotic region (wormhole).

24 Collapse to higher dimensional topological black holes Global properties Global properties If Λ = 0 (hence λ > 0) and (N, dσ 2 ) is not an n-sphere then the locally naked singularity is always visible from I + for k 0, but can be hidden if k > 0 and n 4 (cf. [Ghosh and Beesham]). José Natário (IST, Lisbon) Higher-dimensional Topological Black Holes IST / 23
25 Collapse to higher dimensional topological black holes Global properties Global properties If Λ > 0 (hence λ > 0) and (N, dσ 2 ) is not an n-sphere then the locally naked singularity can be always be hidden except if the FLRW universe is recollapsing (hence k > 0) and n < 4.

26 Collapse to higher dimensional topological black holes Global properties Global properties For Λ < 0 we have: If λ > 0 and (N, dσ 2 ) is not an n-sphere then the locally naked singularity can always be hidden. If λ = 0 then the cusp singularity is not locally naked. If λ < 0 then no causal curve can cross the wormhole from one I to the other (cf. [Galloway]).

27 Collapse to higher dimensional topological black holes Global properties Global properties Global properties are much more diverse in the generalized Lemaître-Tolman-Bondi case. For instance, one can easily find examples of black hole formation with wormholes inside the matter with positive λ and Λ = 0 (previously seen in 4 dimensions [Hellaby]).

33 Matching Collapse with gravitational wave emission Matching In each case, the interior metric gives consistent data for the Bizoń-Chmaj-Schmidt metric at a comoving timelike hypersurface. Local existence of the radiating exterior in the neighbourhood of the matching surface is then guaranteed. In the case of Eguchi-Hanson (asymptotically locally Euclidean) and k-taub-nut with k < 0 (includes hyperbolic space), the data can be chosen to be close to the data for the Schwarzschild solution. Since this solution is known to be stable [Dafermos and Holzegel], it is reasonable to expect that the exterior will settle down to the Schwarzschild solution.
