    0 references
    The authors present an exact collapsing solution of \(2+1\)-gravity with a negative cosmological constant and minimally coupled to a massless scalar field. Its global causal structure and its symmetries are discussed. Finally the linear perturbation analysis in this background is performed with the result, that it does lead to blackhole formation; the critical exponent is determined.
