Static Black Hole Uniqueness Theorems - Lecture 1

Explore the fundamental concepts of static black hole uniqueness theorems in this comprehensive lecture by Carla Cederbaum from the University of Tubingen, Germany. Delivered as part of the ICTP School on Geometry and Gravity, delve into topics such as the Pseudo Schwartzel model, black hole horizons, and time symmetry. Examine various examples and learn about spatial slices, suitable choices, and completeness in the context of black holes. Gain insights into standard static models and understand the principles behind black hole uniqueness. This in-depth presentation offers a thorough exploration of advanced concepts in astrophysics and general relativity, providing a solid foundation for further study in the field.
