Maxime Jean Hubert Gadioux is a researcher in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics at the University of Cambridge, specializing in black holes and general relativity. His research involves the study of non-smooth horizons in the context of dynamical black holes, which exhibit non-smooth features such as creases and caustics. Gadioux has collaborated with others to classify these features in four-dimensional spacetime and has described their properties in detail. He has explored the merger of Kerr black holes and has shown that certain features are indeed present, conforming to the correct mathematical properties. His ongoing research relates to the laws of black hole mechanics, and he has found counterexamples in spherical symmetry, while the rotating case remains an open question. Gadioux aims to investigate the possibility of constructing an extremal rotating black hole that forms in a finite time frame, seeking evidence to support this theoretical endeavor.
