Discussion Overview
The discussion revolves around the mathematical projection of a Killing vector onto a Schwarzschild field of spacetime. Participants explore the meaning and implications of this projection, particularly in relation to black and white holes within the context of Schwarzschild spacetime.
Discussion Character
- Debate/contested
- Conceptual clarification
Main Points Raised
- Some participants question the clarity and meaning of the original question regarding projecting a Killing vector onto a Schwarzschild field.
- There is a request for references to clarify the intent behind the projection of a black and white hole onto Schwarzschild spacetime.
- One participant asserts that Schwarzschild spacetime inherently includes both black and white holes, suggesting that the question may be based on a misunderstanding.
- Another participant proposes the use of Kruskal coordinates for visualizing the maximally extended Schwarzschild solution.
Areas of Agreement / Disagreement
Participants generally express disagreement regarding the formulation and validity of the original question, with no consensus on how to approach the projection of a Killing vector in this context.
Contextual Notes
There are unresolved assumptions about the definitions and implications of projecting a Killing vector, as well as the nature of black and white holes in relation to Schwarzschild spacetime.
