%0 Journal Article %T Curvature singularity of the distributional BTZ black hole geometry %A N. R. Pantoja %A H. Rago %A R. O. Rodriguez %J Mathematics %D 2002 %I arXiv %R 10.1063/1.1699482 %X For the non-rotating BTZ black hole, the distributional curvature tensor field is found. It is shown to have singular parts proportional to a $\delta$-distribution with support at the origin. This singularity is related, through Einstein field equations, to a point source. Coordinate invariance and independence on the choice of differentiable structure of the results are addressed. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/0205094v1
