The geometrodynamics of a thin, dust, electrically neutral shell in the metric of a charged Reissner-Nordström black hole is considered. The Arnowitt-Deser-Misner formalism is used to construct the thin-shell Hamiltonian. The wave equation is derived. The wave equation is shown to be a second-order homogeneous difference equation. Exact analytical solutions have been found.
