Gravitational collapse of homogeneous scalar fields

Roberto Giambó

Published 2005-01-05, updated 2005-05-27Version 2

Conditions under which gravity coupled to self interacting scalar field determines singularity formation are found and discussed. It is shown that, under a suitable matching with an external space, the boundary, if collapses completely, may give rise to a naked singularity. Issues related to the strength of the singularity are discussed.
