Abstract
We study the geometrical and dynamical features of expansion-free dynamical stars in general relativity. Such stars can exist only if particular physical and geometric conditions are satisfied. Firstly, for trapping to exist in an expansion-free dynamical star, the star must accelerate and radiate simultaneously. If either are zero, then the shear \(Sigma\) must be zero through out the star, in which case the star is static (\(\Theta=\Sigma=0\)). Secondly, we prove that with nonzero acceleration and radiation expansion-free dynamical stars must be conformally flat.
