Robinson-Trautman solution with scalar hair

Abstract: Explicit Robinson-Trautman solution with minimally coupled free scalar field is derived and analyzed. It is shown that this solution contains curvature singularity which is initially naked but later the horizon envelopes it. We use quasilocal horizon definition and prove its existence in later retarded times using sub-and supersolution method combined with growth estimates. We show that the solution is generally of algebraic type II but reduces to type D in spherical symmetry.

“…The relation between the asymptotic momentum and the local horizon curvature in the Robinson-Trautman class was used in the analytic explanation of an "antikick" appearing in numerical studies of an asymmetric binary black hole merger [15]. Recently, the solution with minimally coupled free scalar field was derived in [16] and shown to posses a singularity which is initially naked and only later gets covered by a horizon.…”

“…In classical general relativity they were used to study counterexamples to black hole no-hair theorems or the cosmic censorship hypothesis and in many other areas. The study of scalar fields in Kundt spacetimes complements the one performed in the closely related Robinson-Trautman family [11,12].…”

“…Note that the gradient of the scalar field is now aligned with the null congruence defining the properties of spacetime (∇ μ ϕ ∝ ∂ v ), which is not possible in the case of the Robinson-Trautman family [11] where the nonzero expansion of the congruence disallows a completely aligned scalar field. Such an alignment means that scalar field propagates along this null direction and can be interpreted as a scalar wave.…”
