General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology
Accurate and computationally efficient waveform models are required to infer the parameters of compact binaries from their gravitational wave (GW) emission. Among these parameters, orbital eccentricity serves as a smoking gun for dynamical…
We present a systematic theoretical framework for investigating first-order electromagnetic (EM) perturbations induced by gravitational waves (GWs). Beginning with the covariant Maxwell equations, we derive the complete first-order…
In recent work, we have explored the novel possibility that the geodesic of a spacetime density flow in GR could be upgraded to an amplitude $\psi$ with density $|\psi|^2$. We show how this arises from generally-covariant quantum mechanics…
We investigate perturbative dynamics, tidal effects, and relativistic frequency shifts in a dyonic Kalb-Ramond black hole generated by a Lorentz-violating antisymmetric tensor background. The geometry is controlled by the mass $M$, the…
A new two-parameter asymptotically flat (AF) toric gravitational instanton is identified as a special case of the Euclidean double Kerr-NUT solution, by imposing certain symmetry and regularity conditions on its rod structure. These…
In this study, we explore universal thermodynamic topological classes of charged dRGT black string within both the canonical ensemble and grand canonical ensemble frameworks, and further analyze its asymptotic behavior under limiting…
We investigate thin-disk imaging of Kerr black holes with synchronized scalar hair, focusing on backreacted parity-odd excited states of a complex scalar field minimally coupled to Einstein gravity. The spacetime displays a…
We investigate the gravitational collapse of a massive scalar field in a conformally flat, spherically symmetric spacetime within general relativity. The collapsing matter distribution is modeled using a minimally coupled homogeneous scalar…
Johannsen metric is a natural and significant generalization of the Kerr metric, representing the most general stationary, axisymmetric spacetime that preserves the Carter constant of motion. The theoretical status furnishes a powerful,…
We investigate the cosmic coincidence problem in non-interacting holographic dark energy with the Hubble radius as the infrared cutoff in Einstein-Cartan gravity. In general relativity, this cutoff gives a dust-like equation of state in the…
Effective field theory (EFT) provides a systematic framework for parametrizing possible higher-energy corrections to general relativity through higher-curvature interactions. In this work, we investigate gravitational lensing in both weak-…
We develop an impact-parameter-resolved transfer analysis for the rotating acoustic black hole with Lorentz symmetry violation. The background is the $(2+1)$-dimensional Lorentz-violating draining-bathtub geometry, where the draining…
In this work we use an inverse reconstruction technique for constructing ACT-compatible and GW170817-compatible Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet inflationary theories. From a given tensor-to-scalar ratio using the reconstruction technique, we find…
We introduce a minimally coupled dark sector based on a nonlinear electrodynamics to generate regular spacetime textures that interpolate from a regular core to an asymptotic Lorentz-violating conical geometry. This construction provides a…
The ring wormhole is the zero-mass limit of the Kerr metric. Its geometry is locally flat, but the topology is nontrivial, with a throat connecting two asymptotic regions and a distributional curvature singularity on the ring encircling the…
The configuration space of causal sets is vast. It is a critical goal to map out this space. Here, we take a practical step towards this goal. We investigate nine classes of causal sets, most of them not studied before. These include…
With the multitude of gravitational wave observations that have been made in the past ten years, probing the dynamical and nonlinear nature of strong gravity is becoming more and more feasible. One promising way to test the nonlinear nature…
We study the gravitational helicity using the covariant phase space method. Starting from the covariant phase space of general relativity expressed in terms of connection variables, we construct the symplectic form and identify a duality…
We present the detailed analyses of five-dimensional loop quantum Kaluza-Klein cosmology based on the symmetric reduction of the connection formulation of the full theory. The previous results in a particular scenario are extended to more…
We present an analytic method for computing gravitational-wave fluxes from bound Schwarzschild geodesics with arbitrary eccentricity. Our approach systematically expands the Fourier coefficients of the emitted radiation in a Chebyshev…
