We linearize the Einstein equations when the metric is Bondi-Sachs, when the background is Schwarzschild or Minkowski, and when there is a matter source in the form of a thin shell whose density varies with time and angular position. By…
The Einstein-Maxwell (E-M) equations in a curved spacetime that admits at least one Killing vector are derived, from a Lagrangian density adapted to symmetries. In this context, an auxiliary space of potentials is introduced, in which, the…
Recent work has highlighted the deep connection between quantum information and spacetime geometry. Bousso and Shahbazi-Moghaddam (Phys. Rev. Lett. 128, 231301 (2022)) proved that ``hyperentropic'' regions -- where entropy exceeds the area…
We argue that the total observable entropy is bounded by the inverse of the cosmological constant. This holds for all space-times with a positive cosmological constant, including cosmologies dominated by ordinary matter, and recollapsing…
Einstein-Maxwell equations with a cosmological constant are analyzed in a four dimensional stationary spacetime admitting in addition a two dimensional group $G_2$ of spatial isometries. Charged rotating open and closed black string…
We begin by emphasizing that we are dealing with standard Einstein or Einstein-Maxwell theory - absolutely no new physics has been inserted. The fresh item is that the well-known asymptotically flat solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell theory…
Known examples in plane symmetry or Gowdy symmetry show that given a $1$-parameter family of solutions to the vacuum Einstein equations, it may have a weak limit which does not satisfy the vacuum equations, but instead has a non-trivial…
Assuming the four-dimensional space-time to be a general warped product of two surfaces we reduce the four-dimensional Einstein equations to a two-dimensional problem which can be solved. All global vacuum solutions are explicitly…
In this work, we have obtained exact solutions of Einstein equations for static and axially symmetric magnetized matter, specifically in plane-symmetric and almost-plane symmetric cases. Although these solutions impose constraints on the…
A positive cosmological constant simplifies the asymptotics of forever expanding cosmological solutions of the Einstein equations. In this paper a general mathematical analysis on the level of formal power series is carried out for vacuum…
Vacuum polarization of a massive scalar field in the background of a two-dimensional version of a spinning cosmic string is investigated. It is shown that when the `radius of the universe' is such that spacetime is globally hyperbolic the…
We study the effects of trans-planckian censorship conjecture (TCC) bounds on geodesic completeness of spacetime and the associated existence for an infinite proper time. Using Gronwall's lemma, TCC bounds can be derived directly, leading…
We present a new formulation of Einstein's equations for an axisymmetric spacetime with vanishing twist in vacuum. We propose a fully constrained scheme and use spherical polar coordinates. A general problem for this choice is the…

A new solution to the Einstein-Maxwell field equations is presented describing a cylindrically symmetric homogeneous cosmology. The solution is conformally flat, it possesses seven Killing vectors of which the timelike one is rotating and…
Some of the most interesting results on the global dynamics of solutions of the vacuum Einstein equations concern the Gowdy spacetimes whose spatial topology is that of a three-dimensional torus. In this paper certain of these ideas are…
A spacetime consisting of parallel electric/magnetic fields held together by its own gravity in the presence of a cosmological constant $\Lambda$ is derived as a limit of the de Sitter/anti-de Sitter C-metric. The limiting procedure is…

The Abelian Higgs model with or without external particles is considered in curved space. Using the dual transformation, we rewrite the model in terms of dual gauge fields and derive the Bogomol'nyi-type bound. We examine cylindrically…
In this paper, we first review Huei's formulation in which it is shown that the linearized Einstein equations can be written in the same form as the Maxwell equations. We eliminate some imperfections like the scalar potential which is ill…
