Abstract
The extendibility of solutions of the equations of the general theory of relativity through a physical singularity is demonstrated; the extension is not analytic. At a singular point the field equations lose meaning, but the action is finite. Direct variational methods are developed for the study of solutions at a singular point, and are illustrated by the example of the Kasner solution. Astrophysical consequences are discussed.
