A rotating universe outside a Schwarzschild black hole where spacetime itself non-uniformly rotates

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study a non-uniformly rotating universe outside a Schwarzschild black hole by generating a time-dependent manifold of revolution around a straight line. In this simple model where layers of spherical shells of the universe non-uniformly rotate, the Einstein field equations require this phenomenon to be caused by a static mass-energy distribution with time-dependent TϕϕT^{ϕϕ} (quadratic with time) and Trϕ=TϕrT^{rϕ}=T^{ϕr} (linear with time). This indicates that a time-dependent stress along a certain direction results in a spacetime shift in that direction. For this model however, such material violates the null energy condition. Incidentally, the various coordinate systems describing the Schwarzschild solution can be viewed as arising from the freedom in parametrising the straight line and the radial function in the general method of constructing spacetime by generating manifolds of revolution around a given curve.
