The Newman-Penrose formalism may be used in numerical relativity to extract coordinate-invariant information about gravitational radiation emitted in strong-field dynamical scenarios. The main challenge in doing so is to identify a null…
In recent years, there has been considerable interest in theories formulated in anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime. However, AdS spacetime fails to be globally hyperbolic, so a classical field satisfying a hyperbolic wave equation on AdS…
The aim of this paper is to present a general way to calculate quasi-normal modes (QNM) of the Teukolsky equation for higher dimensional (d > 4) Kerr spacetime with compactified extra dimensions. In order to do so, we develop a formalism…
In this work we consider AdS$_3$ gravitational theory with certain mixed boundary conditions at spatial infinity. Using the Chern-Simons formalism of AdS$_3$ gravity, we find that these boundary conditions lead to non-trivial boundary…
We prove boundedness and polynomial decay statements for solutions of the spin $\pm2$ Teukolsky equation on a Kerr exterior background with parameters satisfying $|a|\ll M$. The bounds are obtained by introducing generalisations of the…

We obtain exact expressions for the quasinormal modes (QNMs) of the massive scalar, fermionic and vector perturbations around a rotating BTZ-like black hole in the Einstein-bumblebee gravity. We find that the Lorentz symmetry breaking (LSB)…
In this paper, we derive the field equations of quartic quasi-topological gravity by varying the action with respect to the metric. Also, we obtain the linearized graviton equations in the AdS background and find that it is governed by a…
We establish resolution bounds on reconstructing a bulk field from boundary data on a timelike hypersurface. If the bulk only supports propagating modes, reconstruction is complete. If the bulk also supports evanescent modes, local…
We propose a heuristic for the brick wall in AdS/CFT: the location where a boundary mode's local bulk energy reaches a (Planckian) UV cut-off. This accomplishes two things: (a) the brick wall is framed as a breakdown criterion for bulk…
On a class of four-dimensional Lifshitz spacetimes with critical exponent $z=2$, including a hyperbolic and a spherical Lifshitz topological black hole, we consider a real Klein-Gordon field. Using a mode-decomposition, we split the…

We study the phenomena of superradiance for $F(R)$-Maxwell black holes in an AdS space-time. The AdS boundary plays the role of a mirror and provides a natural confining system that makes the superradiant waves bouncing back and forth…
We analyse the cosmology of a brane world model where a single brane carrying the standard model fields forms the boundary of a 5-dimensional AdS bulk (the Randall-Sundrum II scenario). We focus on the thermal radiation of bulk gravitons,…
