Black holes: The membrane paradigm
TL;DR: In this article, the physics of black holes are explored in terms of a membrane paradigm which treats the event horizon as a two-dimensional membrane embedded in three-dimensional space, and a 3+1 formalism is used to split Schwarzschild space-time and the laws of physics outside a nonrotating hole.

TL;DR: Analysis of the power-law tails in the evolution of massless fields around a fixed background geometry corresponding to a black hole confirms their existence and suggests the behavior of the full nonlinear dynamics, which is studied numerically in a companion paper.

Membrane viewpoint on black holes: Properties and evolution of the stretched horizon

TL;DR: The membrane formalism rewrites the standard mathematical theory of black holes in a language and notation which (the authors hope) will facilitate research in black-hole astrophysics, and is likely to help astrophysicists understand intuitively and compute quantitatively the behaviors ofblack holes in complex external environments.
