Global Nonlinear Stability of Schwarzschild Spacetime under Polarized Perturbations

Essential mathematical insights into one of the most important and challenging open problems in general relativity—the stability of black holes

One of the major outstanding questions about black holes is whether they remain stable when subject to small perturbations. An affirmative answer to this question would provide strong theoretical support for the physical reality of black holes. In this book, Sergiu Klainerman and Jérémie Szeftel take a first important step toward solving the fundamen...
