Viscous fluid analogy<br />

Negative bulk viscosity of <strong>event</strong> <strong>horizons</strong><br />

From the Damour-Navier-S<strong>to</strong>kes equation, ζ = − 1<br />

< 0<br />

16π<br />

This negative value would yield <strong>to</strong> a dilation or contraction instability in an<br />

ordinary fluid<br />

It is in agreement with the tendency of a null hypersurface <strong>to</strong> continually contract<br />

or expand<br />

The <strong>event</strong> horizon is stabilized by the teleological condition imposing its expansion<br />

<strong>to</strong> vanish in the far future (equilibrium state reached)<br />
