Previous special relativistic calculations of gravitational redshift, light deflection and Shapiro delay are extended to include perigee advance. The three classical, order G, post-Newtonian predictions of general relativity as well as general relativistic light-speed-variation are therefore shown to be also consequences of special relativistic Newtonian mechanics in Euclidean space. The calculations are compared to general relativistic ones based on the Schwarzschild metric equation, and related literature is critically reviewed.

We consider a spherically symmetric gravitational collapse of a tachyon field with an inverse square potential, which is coupled with a barotropic fluid. By employing an holonomy correction imported from loop quantum cosmology (LQC), we analyze the dynamics of the collapse within a semiclassical description. Using a dynamical system approach, we find that the stable fixed points given by the standard general relativistic setting turn into saddle points in the present context. This provides a new dynamics in contrast to the black hole and naked singularities solutions appearing in the classical model. Our results suggest that classical singularities can be avoided by quantum gravity effects and are replaced by a bounce. By a thorough numerical studies we show that, depending on the barotropic parameter γ, there exists a class of solutions corresponding to either a fluid or a tachyon dominated regimes. Furthermore, for the case γ ~ 1, we find an interesting tracking behavior between the tachyon and the fluid leading to a dust-like collapse. In addition, we show that, there exists a threshold scale which determines when an outward energy flux emerges, as a nonsingular black hole is forming, at the corresponding collapse final stages.

Some aspects of perfect-fluid general-relativistic hydrodynamics under the assumptions of irrotationality and isentropicity are analysed. A new derivation of the known fact that the Lagrangian for these fluids is just the pressure is given. Then we study the fluctuations around a given background field configuration, extracting a rule that connects the order at which a Taylor expansion of the action functional possibly stops with the fluid equation of state. From a classical invariance of the action we deduce the conserved Noether current. Because of the spontaneous breaking of such an invariance on the vacuum state Goldstone bosons arise, which turn out to be just phonons (quantized sound waves). Some useful results concerning the linear theory of sound waves are also given.

It is widely believed that though pressure resists gravitational collapse in Newtonian gravity, it aids the same in general relativity (GR) so that GR collapse should eventually be similar to the monotonous free fall case. But we show that, even in the context of radiationless adiabatic collapse of a perfect fluid, pressure tends to resist GR collapse in a manner which is more pronounced than the corresponding Newtonian case and formation of trapped surfaces is inhibited. In fact there are many works which show such collapse to rebound or become oscillatory implying a tug of war between attractive gravity and repulsive pressure gradient. Furthermore, for an imperfect fluid, the resistive effect of pressure could be significant due to likely dramatic increase of tangential pressure beyond the "photon sphere." Indeed, with inclusion of tangential pressure, in principle, there can be static objects with surface gravitational redshift z → ∞. Therefore, pressure can certainly oppose gravitational contraction in GR in a significant manner in contradiction to the idea of Roger Penrose that GR continued collapse must be unstoppable.

We explore the gravitational collapse of a spherically symmetric dust cloud in the Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet gravity without a cosmological constant, and obtain three families of LTB-like solutions. It is shown that the Gauss–Bonnet term has a profound influence on the nature of singularities, and the global structure of spacetime changes drastically from the analogous general relativistic case. Interestingly, the formation of a naked, massive and uncentral singularity, allowed in five-dimensional spacetime, is forbidden if D≥6. Moreover, such singularity is gravitational strong and a serious counterexample to CCH.
