C-metric as a limit of photon rocket
Hauser, Vít ; Kofroň, David (advisor) ; Švarc, Robert (referee)
Tato práce se zabývá oblastí přesných řešení Einstenových rovnic. Toto téma zůstává po delší dobu předmětem soustředěného studia studia na MFF UK. Zaměřil jsem se na studium kosmické struny u metriky popisující akceleraci dvou černých děr, tzv. C-metriky. Cílem práce je přehledně shrnout vlastnosti několika skupin řešení - Robinson-Trautmanových řešení obecně; specificky fotonových raket a C-metriky. Následně pak ověřit možnost pře- vodu řešení založených na modelu fotonových raket na C-metriku. Zajímavou podúlohou je fokusace záření umožňující popis vakuové C-metriky. K řešení otázek v této oblasti se využívá systémů počítačové algebry k zjednodušování složitých výrazů. V druhé části je předložen problém nalezení alternativního popisu strun v rámci těchto řešení. Rozveden je i jednodušší problém Schwarzschildovy metriky proťaté kosmickou strunou. Podstatou řešení je hledání způsobu přechodu k těmto metrikám. Práce prezen- tuje a diskutuje řešení těchto úloh. Autorovi se, nicméně, nepodařilo popsat systematický způsob jak nalézat řešení s požadovanými vlastnostmi výsledné metriky. 1

The fields of current loops around black holes
Vlasáková, Zuzana ; Semerák, Oldřich (advisor) ; Karas, Vladimír (referee)
The field of a test current loop placed symmetrically in the equatorial plane around a Kerr black hole has been studied several times and solutions have been published in different forms. We compare these results and determine their limits in important places - in radial infinity, on the outer event horizon, on the static limit, in the equatorial plane and on the axis of symmetry. Furthermore, we show the behaviour of the field corresponding to the extreme black hole and verify Meissner effect. In the end we determine the field of a simple model of a current disc by a superposition of test current loops. This problem has an astrophysical motivation - the description of accretion discs in the vicinity of black holes. 1

Black holes under the influence of strong sources of gravitation
Kotlařík, Petr ; Semerák, Oldřich (advisor) ; Kofroň, David (referee)
In this thesis we study a deformation of a black-hole spacetime due to another strong sources of gravity. Keeping within static and axially symmetric metrics, we consider a binary of Schwarzschild black holes held apart from each other by a repulsive effect of an Appell ring. After verifying that such a system can rest in static equilibrium (without any supporting struts), we compute its several basic geometric characteristics and we plot simple invariants determined by the metric functions (especially lapse, or, equivalently, potential) and by their first and second derivatives (gravitational acceleration and Kretschmann scalar). Then we extend the analysis below the black-hole horizon and inspect the behaviour of the scalars inside. The geometry turns out to be deformed in a non-trivial way, we even find regions of negative Kretschmann scalar in some cases. In the second part, we present a summary of the perturbative solution describing a slowly rotating system of a black hole surrounded by a thin finite circular disc, and an analysis of equatorial circular geodesics in such a spacetime. 1

Parameterization of the Kerr solution
Miškovský, David ; Švarc, Robert (advisor) ; Scholtz, Martin (referee)
In this thesis we are exploring basic properties of the Kerr solution using se- veral coordinate systems. Later on, we are deriving general metric form of the spacetime foliated by null hypersurfaces. Employing the formalism of optical sca- lars we shall see, that geometry of a such a spacetime is non-twisting, that is it admits existence of a non-twisting affinely parametrized null geodesic congru- ence. Subsequently, we are trying to express the Kerr solution in the form of non-twisting coordinates. This form would have many applications e.g. in forma- lism of weakly isolated horizons (WHIs) for use in more realistic astrophysical models of black holes.

Space-times of ring sources
Pešta, Milan ; Semerák, Oldřich (advisor) ; Ledvinka, Tomáš (referee)
Marginally outer-trapped surfaces (MOTSs) are found for a family of space-like hypersurfaces described by the Brill-Lindquist initial data. These hypersurfaces contain a singular ring characterized by its radius, mass and charge. Due to the ring character of the singularity, these surfaces are natural candidates for MOTSs with toroidal topology. By adjusting and employing the numerical method of geodesics, we indeed localize MOTSs of both spherical and toroidal topology, and compare the results with those obtained previously by Jaramillo & Lousto.

Geodesic chaos in a perturbed Schwarzschild field
Polcar, Lukáš ; Semerák, Oldřich (advisor) ; Kopáček, Ondřej (referee)
We study the dynamics of time-like geodesics in the field of black holes perturbed by a circular ring or disc, restricting to static and axisymmetric class of space-times. Two analytical methods are tested which do not require solving the equations of motion: (i) the so-called geometric criterion of chaos based on eigenvalues of the Riemann tensor, and (ii) the method of Melnikov which detects the chaotic layer arising by break-up of a homoclinic orbit. Predictions of both methods are compared with numerical results in order to learn how accurate and reliable they are.

Rotating thin disc around a Schwarzschild black hole: properties of perturbative solution
Kotlařík, Petr ; Semerák, Oldřich (advisor) ; Ledvinka, Tomáš (referee)
In 1974, Will presented a solution for the perturbation of a Schwarzschild black hole due to a slowly rotating and light thin disc given in terms of a multipole expansion of the perturbation series. In a recently submitted paper, P. Čížek and O. Semerák generalized this procedure to the perturbation by a slowly rotating finite thin disc, using closed forms of Green functions rather than the multipole expansion. The method is illustrated there, in the first perturbation order, on the constant-density disc. In this thesis, we summarize, check and plot some of the obtained properties, and show how the presence of the disc changes the geometry of a horizon and the position of significant circular orbits. 1

Fields of current loops around black holes
Vlasáková, Zuzana ; Semerák, Oldřich (advisor) ; Svítek, Otakar (referee)
The magnetic field of a test circular current loop placed symmetrically around a Schwarzschild black hole has been determined several times in the literature and solutions has been expressed by different formulas. We compare these formulas analytically as well as numerically, and show, in particular, how they behave on the symmetry axis, in the equatorial plane and on the horizon. The problem is relevant for modelling accretion discs around black holes.

Space-times with toroidal horizons
Pešta, Milan ; Semerák, Oldřich (advisor) ; Ledvinka, Tomáš (referee)
Basic results of the uniqueness theorems and the topological-censorship theorem are presented. Properties of the well-known solution of Einstein's equations with a toroidal event horizon are examined and one of possible visualizations of the coordinate system that helps to better understand the behaviour of various invariants in the vicinity of the singularity is suggested. Apart from this solution, two solutions with a ring singularity are introduced as potential candidates for space-times with toroidal horizons whose properties are interpreted intuitively using the toroidal or Weyl coordinate systems. Last part is devoted to apparent horizons of the considered solutions and the differential equation for the apparent horizon of an arbitrary solution of the Weyl class is derived. The numerical solution of this equation is not presented.

Geodesics in the field of a perturbed black hole: where appears chaos?
Polcar, Lukáš ; Semerák, Oldřich (advisor) ; Suková, Petra (referee)
It is widely known that the motion around Schwarzshild black hole is completely integrable. However, after adding a disc or a ring one of the symmetries of the system is broken and the motion may become chaotic for some values of parameters. The aim of this thesis is to identify where appears chaos in static, axially symmetric spacetime by using the geometrical method based on the geodesic deviation equation. Is it possible to predict chaotic behaviour in general relativity solely from local geometrical properties of spacetime, without explicitly solving the geodesic equation?
