Description

Abstract: Black holes are perhaps the most spectacular theoretical prediction of Einstein's theory of general relativity. A mathematical proof of their stability as solutions to the Einstein equations remains a fundamental open problem in the subject. The talk will outline the formulation, major difficulties, and implications of the problem, including its connections with recent advances in the experimental observation of these objects.
