Gravitational perturbations which are present in any realistic stellar
collapse to a black hole die off in the exterior of the hole but expe
rience an infinite blueshift in the interior. This is believed to lead
to a slowly contracting lightlike scalar curvature singularity, chara
cterized by a divergence of the hole's (quasilocal) mass function alon
g the inner horizon. The region near the inner horizon is described wi
th great accuracy by a plane wave spacetime. While Einstein's equation
s for this metric are still too complicated to be solved in closed for
m, it is relatively simple to integrate them numerically, which we do
here. For generic, regular initial data, we find the predicted mass in
flation-type null singularity, rather than a spacelike singularity. It
, therefore, seems that mass inflation indeed represents a generic sel
f-consistent picture of the black hole interior.
