My professor and I were discussing the emergence of the Swartzschild solution from topological considerations, corresponding to the manipulations of a point singularity. He pointed out to me that mass nowhere enters into the considerations, and so classifying black holes according to mass is fallacious. I am not entirely sure how he arrived at this point, however, and have forgotten the general process. Could someone please explain this to me, and/or provide me with some other references?
Also, I recall reading somewhere that the Kerr solution emerges from considerations of a circle in a plane, using topology (as with the Swartzschild and points). Supposedly the killing field emerging from the isotropic nature of the space generates angular momentum. How would a charge arise if we were considering the Kerr-Neumman solution?
Thank you in advance
