dc.descriptionEinstein's equations are known to lead to the formation of black holes and spacetime singularities. This appears to be a manifestation of the mathematical phenomenon of finite-time blowup: a formation of singularities from regular initial data. We present a simple hyperbolic system of two semi-linear equations inspired by the Einstein equations. We explore a class of solutions to this system which are analogous to static black-hole models. These solutions exhibit a black-hole structure with a finite-time blowup on a characteristic line mimicking the null inner horizon of spinning or charged black holes. We conjecture that this behavior - namely black-hole formation with blow-up on a characteristic line - is a generic feature of our semi-linear system. Our simple system may provide insight into the formation of null singularities inside spinning or charged black holes in the full system of Einstein equations.
