We present solutions of the Einstein
equations that extend the static Schwarzschild solution in empty space into regions of non-zero energy
density ⍴ and
radial pressure 𝑝 = 𝑤
⍴, where 𝑤 is a
constant equation of state parameter. For simplicity we focus mainly on solutions with constant ⍴. For
𝑤 = 0 we
find solutions both with and without a singularity at the origin. Possible applications to galaxies are considered, where we find enhanced velocity rotation curves
towards the edge of a galaxy. We propose that our explicit non-singular solution with 𝑤 = -1 describes the interior of a black hole, which is a form of vacuum energy. We verifythat its
entropy is consistent with the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy, if
one assumes the Hawking temperature. We further suggest that this idea
can perhaps be applied to the dark
energy of the observable universe, ifone views the latter as arising
from black holes as pockets of vacuum energy. We estimate the averagedensity of such a dark energy to be approximately 1E-30 g/cm^3. We also
speculate on applications to early time
inflation.
