Abstract

Numerical relativity has faced the problem that standard 3+1 simulations of black hole spacetimes without singularity excision and with singularity avoiding lapse and vanishing shift fail early on due to the so-called slice stretching. We discuss lapse and shift conditions for the nonexcision case that effectively cure slice stretching and allow run times of [Formula Presented] and more.
