Hawking’s singularity theorem for C^{1,1}-metrics

Hawking’s singularity theorem for C^{1,1}-metrics
Hawking’s singularity theorem for C^{1,1}-metrics
We provide a detailed proof of Hawking’s singularity theorem in the regularity class C^{1,1}, i.e., for spacetime metrics possessing locally Lipschitz continuous
first derivatives. The proof uses recent results in C^{1,1}-causality theory and is based on regularisation techniques adapted to the causal structure.

Abstract

We provide a detailed proof of Hawking’s singularity theorem in the regularity class C^{1,1}, i.e., for spacetime metrics possessing locally Lipschitz continuous
first derivatives. The proof uses recent results in C^{1,1}-causality theory and is based on regularisation techniques adapted to the causal structure.
