I'm not sure if this is new ground that I'm treading, it may not be but consider the following:


If you heat up a laser enough within a crystal and propel it forward, it can bounce off the sides and remain within the crystal indefinitely until there is an approaching infinite amount of energy within that crystal.

A singularity is a sphere, so make that crystal a sphere (smooth and round out the asymptotes - in math speak - in three or four dimensions).

Anyway, that laser beam within the sphere or crystal could potentially create enough energy (approaching infinite energy) to create a black hole, a void, or what have you. I'm not sure what would happen to the sphere, would it shrink down to infinite density and explode and destroy the galaxy?

I don't know. But if this could be controlled (like tactical nukes) you could have a pretty solid bomb on your hands.


Given the calculus of it, we are talking about 3-dimensional shifting asymptotes and curved lines approaching those asymptotes until you get a spiralling-inward series of circles that end at a point (that I do not know of yet).
The theory is ok, the reality is that all, absolutely all reflective materials have a maximum reflective coefficient beyond which they can no longer reflect things and the light burns through, also, all light transmissible materials have a non-zero transmission coefficient so basically, the mirror surface gives out or you lose energy in the material until it melts.
