Numerical algorithms for finding Black Hole solutions of Einstein's equations

Einstein's Theory of General Relativity has proven remarkably successful at modelling a wide range of gravitational phenomena. Amongst some of the novel features in this description is the existence of black holes; regions of space-time where gravity is so strong that light cannot escape. The p...
