Abstract
Enlargement of a spherical void in the expanding universe is discussed. In a nonlinear regime of density perturbation, the low-density region or a void behaves like an explosive source and the dense thin shell is formed by this explosion of the void. Israel’s formalism for an infinitely thin shell is applied to derive a relativistic relation, which is analysed for various models of the universe. The motion of a void in the closed universe is also discussed.
