The Black Hole Stability Problem — •Gustav Holzegel — Imperial College, London

A fundamental open problem in general relativity is to establish the non-linear stability of the Kerr-family of black holes. I will review recent progress in this field including a discussion of a proof of the linear stability of the Schwarzschild solution under gravitational perturbations, which I obtained in collaboration with Dafermos and Rodnianski.
