Abstract

In this paper, the higher-dimensional collapse of homogeneous isotropic perfect fluid is studied by considering the geometry of five-dimensional spherically symmetric metric. Using equations of state for different fields like dust, radiation and stiff fluid with and without cosmological constant [Formula: see text], the gravitational collapse is studied. The results are compared with the usual four-dimensional study in [A. V. Astashenok, K. Mosani, S. D. Odintsov and G. C. Samanta, Int. J. Geom. Methods Mod. Phys. 16, 1950035 (2019)]. It is found that the collapse rate is faster in five-dimensional spacetime as compared to four-dimensional case supporting the cosmic censorship hypothesis.
