Local approaches <strong>to</strong> black <strong>holes</strong><br />

Local definitions of “black <strong>holes</strong>”<br />

A hypersurface H of (M , g) is said <strong>to</strong> be<br />

a future outer <strong>trapping</strong> horizon (FOTH) iff<br />

(i) H foliated by marginally trapped 2-surfaces<br />

(θ (k) < 0 and θ (ℓ) = 0)<br />

(ii) Lk θ (ℓ) < 0 (locally outermost trapped surf.)<br />

[Hayward, PRD 49, 6467 (1994)]<br />

a dynamical horizon (DH) iff<br />

(i) H foliated by marginally trapped 2-surfaces<br />

(ii) H spacelike<br />
