The physical properties of an axisymmetric black-hole-ring system are studied analytically within the framework of general relativity to second order in the dimensionless mass ratio $\mu\equiv m/M$. In particular, we analyze the asymptotic…
The strong cosmic censorship conjecture, whose validation asserts the deterministic nature of general relativity, has been studied for charged BTZ black holes in three dimensional general relativity, as well as for Nth order pure Lovelock…
We have suggested, that the size of extra spatial dimensions (if they exist) should be related to the quantum vacuum fluctuations; an extra dimension must be sufficiently large to allow appearance of virtual quark-antiquark pairs, which are…
The correspondence between stationary, axisymmetric, asymptotically flat space-times and bundles over a reduced twistor space has been established in four dimensions. The main impediment for an application of this correspondence to examples…
We consider 2+1--dimensional analogues of the Bertotti-Robinson (BR) spacetimes in the sense that the coefficient at the angular part is a constant. We show that such BR-like solutions are either pure static or uncharged rotating. We trace…
We investigate the threshold of gravitational collapse with angular momentum, under the assumption that the critical solution is spherical and self-similar and has two growing modes, namely one spherical mode and one axial dipole mode…
We investigate higher dimensional Robinson-Trautman spacetimes with an electromagnetic field aligned with the hypersurface orthogonal, non-shearing, expanding geodesic null congruence. After integrating the system of Einstein-Maxwell…
How does one measure the angular momentum carried away by gravitational radiation during the merger of a binary black hole? This has been a subtle issue since the 1960's due to the discovery of ``supertranslation ambiguity": the angular…
Chaotic motion near black holes has recently been examined through the lens of the Maldacena-Shenker-Stanford (MSS) chaos-bound, but reported violations remain contradictory. A significant source of ambiguity stems from treating the…
The inequality $\sqrt{J}\leq m$ is proved for vacuum, asymptotically flat, maximal and axisymmetric data close to extreme Kerr data. The physical significance of this inequality and its relation to the standard picture of the gravitational…
Rotating charged Gauss-Bonnet black hole solutions in higher dimensional ($d >4$), asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetime are obtained in the small angular momentum limit. The angular momentum, magnetic dipole moment, and the gyromagnetic…
We study the gravitational collapse problem of rotating shells in three-dimensional Einstein gravity with and without a cosmological constant. Taking the exterior and interior metrics to be those of stationary metrics with asymptotically…
The physics of angular momentum in even space dimensions can be surprisingly counter-intuitive. Three such suprises, all associated with the properties of supersymmetric rotating objects, are examined: (i) 5D black holes, (ii) Dyonic…
We carry out the Hamiltonian formulation of the three- dimensional gravitational teleparallelism without imposing the time gauge condition, by rigorously performing the Legendre transform. Definition of the gravitational angular momentum…
The muon anomalous magnetic moment $a_\mu$ is studied in the infinite $\tan\beta$ limit of the MSSM. Since the muon mass arises completely from loop effects, large corrections to $a_\mu$ are expected in comparison to the usual case with…
The strategy of obtaining the familiar Kerr-Newman solution in general relativity is based on either using the metric ansatz in the Kerr-Schild form, or applying the method of complex coordinate transformation to a non-rotating charged…
5-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory with Chern-Simons coefficient $\lambda=1$ has supersymmetric black holes with vanishing horizon angular velocity, but finite angular momentum. Here supersymmetry is associated with a…
Tsirelson showed that $2\sqrt{2}$ is the maximum value that CHSH expression can take for quantum-correlations [B. S.Tsirelson, Lett. Math. Phys, 4 (1980) 93]. This bound simply follows from the algebra of observables. Recently by exploiting…
Apart from the familiar structure firmly-rooted in the general relativistic field equations where the energy--momentum tensor has a null divergence i.e., it conserves, there exists a considerable number of extended theories of gravity…
Dimensional analysis shows that the speed of light and Newton's constant of gravitation can be combined to define a quantity $F_* = {c^4\over G_N}$ with the dimensions of force (equivalently, tension). Then in any physical situation we must…
