| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the properties of black holes by analyzing not the Einstein's equation of motion but equivalent equations in variational method and fluid mechanics.
In particular, we revealed the properties of higher-dimensional black holes,living in spaces whose number of spatial dimensions is greater than three, by investigating those of soap bubbles, which are called the constant-mean-curvature surfaces by mathematicians.
The results in this study are useful for both mathematics (differential geometry) and physics (general relativity and fluid mechanics), and can promote further interdisciplinary studies on the relation between the two.
