Conjectures that have been proved

Black hole stability conjecture

The black hole stability conjecture is the conjecture that a perturbed Kerr black hole will settled back down to a stable state. This has been an open problem in general relativity for some time. A 2016 paper proved the stability of slowly rotating Kerr black holes in de Sitter space. A limited stability result for Kerr black holes in Schwarzschild space-time was published by Klainerman et. al. in 2017. Culminating in 2022, a series of papers was published by Klainerman et. al. which present a proof of the conjecture for slowly rotating Kerr black holes in Minkowski space-time. (Wikipedia).

Peter Hintz: The stability of Kerr-de Sitter black holes

Abstract: In this lecture I will discuss Kerr-de Sitter black holes, which are rotating black holes in a universe with a positive cosmological constant, i.e. they are explicit solutions (in 3+1 dimensions) of Einstein's equations of general relativity. They are parameterized by their mass

The lectures will focus on some of the key issues of mathematical theory of black holes, i.e. rigidity, stability and collapse. The first two issues can be neatly summarized by two well known conjectures. The rigidity conjecture identifies the class of stationary, asymptotical
