We generalize our unique continuation results recently established for a class of linear and nonlinear wave equations $\Box_g \phi + \sigma \phi = \mathcal{G} ( \phi, \partial \phi )$ on asymptotically anti-de Sitter (aAdS) spacetimes to…

In this global study of solutions to the linear wave equation on Schwarzschild de Sitter spacetimes we attend to the cosmological region of spacetime which is bounded in the past by cosmological horizons and to the future by a spacelike…

In this paper, we derive the early-time asymptotics for fixed-frequency solutions $\phi_\ell$ to the wave equation $\Box_g \phi_\ell=0$ on a fixed Schwarzschild background ($M>0$) arising from the no incoming radiation condition on…

In canonical quantum gravity, the wave function for a hypersurface inside a Schwarzschild black hole can be obtained by solving the Wheeler-DeWitt equation. What is of prime importance is the behavior of the wave function for the future…
