The purpose of this paper is to discuss the perfect fluid gravitational collapse in modified f(R) metric gravity theories with non-minimal curvature coupled to matter. For this inference, we investigate the effects on self-gravitating implosion with spherically symmetric non-static geometry in the presence of extra force [Formula: see text], that express the cosmic expansion with dark source constraints. Matching conditions are given in which we have taken the insertion of non-static interior and static exterior regions along with cosmological constant. We have investigated the apparent horizons with effective results and along with their physical interpretation. It is analyzed that the extra component of dark source material reduces the gravitating implosion, hence slowing the rate of collapse. This study also reflects the contribution towards the perfect fluid for the generalization in f(R) gravity with zero coupling constant [Formula: see text].

We explore the problem of charged perfect fluid spherically symmetric gravitational collapse in f(R, T) gravity (R is Ricci scalar and T is the trace of energy–momentum tensor). We have taken the interior boundary of a star as spherically symmetric metric filled with the charged perfect fluid. In order to study charged perfect fluid collapse, we have investigated the exact solutions of the Maxwell–Einstein field equations solutions using the most simplified form for f(R, T) model f(R, T) = R + 2[Formula: see text]T, where [Formula: see text] is model parameter. This study involves the effects of charge as well as coupling parameter on collapse of a star. We studied the nature of trapped surfaces, apparent horizon and singularity structure in detail. It has been found that singularity is formed earlier than the apparent horizons, so the end state of gravitational collapse in this case is black hole.

In this paper, the effect of electromagnetic field has been investigated on the spherically symmetric gravitational collapse with the perfect fluid in the presence of positive cosmological constant. Junction conditions between the static exterior and non-static interior spherically symmetric spacetimes are discussed. We study the apparent horizons and their physical significance. It is found that electromagnetic field reduces the bound of cosmological constant by reducing the pressure and hence collapsing process is faster as compared to the perfect fluid case. This work gives the generalization of the perfect fluid case to the charged perfect fluid. Results for the perfect fluid case are recovered.

Analytic spherically symmetric solutions of the Einstein field equations coupled with a perfect fluid and with self-similarities of the zeroth, first and second kinds, found recently by Benoit and Coley [Class. Quantum Grav.15, 2397 (1998)], are studied, and found that some of them represent gravitational collapse. When the solutions have self-similarity of the first (homothetic) kind, some of the solutions may represent critical collapse but in the sense that now the "critical" solution separates the collapse that forms black holes from the collapse that forms naked singularities. The formation of such black holes always starts with a mass gap, although the "critical" solution has homothetic self-similarity. The solutions with self-similarity of the zeroth and second kinds seem irrelevant to critical collapse. Yet, it is also found that the de Sitter solution is a particular case of the solutions with self-similarity of the zeroth kind, and that the Schwarzschild solution is a particular case of the solutions with self-similarity of the second kind with the index α=3/2.

This paper deals with spherically symmetric gravitational collapse of inhomogeneous perfect fluid in Einstein Gauss–Bonnet gravity. The physical quantities have been plotted in the EGB gravity. The Ricci Scalar and Kretschmann scalar have been determined to study the curvature singularity. The shell focusing curvature singularities are generated at last stage of gravitational collapse of object. The formation of singularity and apparent horizon depends on the initial data. Also, the energy conditions have been discussed for the reasonable energy momentum tensor. The presence of GB coupling constant [Formula: see text] modifies the structure of singularity and formation of apparent horizon.

Abstract A metric theory of gravitation is suggested which reduces to Einstein's theory in the case of vanishing matter. If matter is present, in the Lagrangian formulation of the theory the principle of minimal coupling is given up by directly linking the matter variables to the curvature tensor. The theory contains a free parameter of dimension length. It is considered not to be a universal constant but a length characteristic for the mass of the material system described. Results diverging from those of General Relativity are to be expected for regions with high curvature i. e. especially for gravitational collapse and dense phases of the cosmos. An exact, static and spherically symmetric solution with constant matter density is discussed; it indicates that, possibly, gravitational collapse is avoided.

This paper contains the study of spherically symmetric perfect fluid collapse in the framework of f(R, T) modified theory of gravity using five-dimensional background. We consider the five-dimensional spherical symmetric metric as the interior region and a five-dimensional Schwarzschild metric as an exterior region. The Darmois junction conditions between exterior and interior regions are discussed. By taking the particular f(R, T) model, the corresponding field equations are evaluated for both marginally bound L(r) = 1 and non-marginally bound L(r) ≠ 1 cases. We find the gravitational mass of the collapsing system and discuss the apparent horizons and their time formation for different possible cases. Also, the cosmological and black hole horizons have been discussed. It has been concluded that the term involving λ plays a double role: it accelerates the collapse in the region where ρ0 < 4p0 and it slows down the collapsing of matter when ρ0 > 4p0. Further, it is noted that our results reduce to the results found by Sharif and Ahmad (J. Korean Phys. Soc. 52, 980 (2008). doi: 10.3938/jkps.52.980) in general relativity for λ = 0.

In this paper, the effect of a positive cosmological constant on spherically symmetric collapse with perfect fluid has been investigated. The matching conditions between static exterior and non-static interior spacetimes are given in the presence of a cosmological constant. We also study the apparent horizons and their physical significance. It is concluded that the cosmological constant slows down the collapse of matter and hence limit the size of the black hole. This analysis gives the generalization of the dust case to the perfect fluid. We recover the results of the dust case for p = 0.

The conformal transformation of the Misner–Sharp mass is reexamined. It has recently been found that this mass does not transform like usual masses do under conformal mappings of spacetime. We show that when it comes to conformal transformations, the widely used geometric definition of the Misner–Sharp mass is fundamentally different from the original conception of the latter. Indeed, when working within the full hydrodynamic setup that gave rise to that mass, i.e. the physics of gravitational collapse, the familiar conformal transformation of a usual mass is recovered. The case of scalar–tensor theories of gravity is also examined.
