Generating Anisotropic Collapse and Expansion Solutions of Einstein's Equations

Abstract

Analytic gravitational collapse and expansion solutions with anisotropic pressure are generated. Metric functions are found by requiring zero heat flow scalar. It emerges that a single function generates the anisotropic solutions. Each generating function contains an arbitrary function of time which can be chosen to fit various astrophysical time profiles. Two examples are provided: a bounded collapse metric and an expanding cosmological solution
