Connections compatible with degenerate metric structures are known to possess peculiar features: on the one hand, the compatibility conditions involve restrictions on the torsion; on the other hand, torsionfree compatible connections are…
The 3D Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS$_3$) algebra that is the asymptotic symmetry algebra at null infinity of the $1+2$D asymptotically flat space-time is isomorphic to the $1+1$D Carrollian conformal algebra. Building on this connection,…
Developments in Carrollian gravity and holography necessitate the use of singular Carroll vector fields, a feature that cannot be accommodated within standard Carrollian geometry. We introduce Carrollian Lie algebroids as a framework to…
We briefly review the notion of the intrinsic torsion of a $G$-structure and then go on to classify the intrinsic torsion of the $G$-structures associated with spacetimes: namely, galilean (or Newton-Cartan), carrollian, aristotelian and…
The purpose of this dissertation is to examine the BMS symmetry group, which arises as the asymptotic symmetry group of four-dimensional asymptotically flat spacetimes at null infinity, and to uncover its relation to the Carroll group.…
We show that a holographic description of four-dimensional asymptotically locally flat spacetimes is reached smoothly from the zero-cosmological-constant limit of anti-de Sitter holography. To this end, we use the derivative expansion of…
We study the isometry groups of (non-compact) Lorentzian manifolds with well-behaved causal structure, aka causal spacetimes satisfying the ``no observer horizons'' condition. Our main result is that the group of time orientation-preserving…
We present a definition of null G-structures on Lorentzian manifolds and investigate their geometric properties. This definition includes the Robinson structure on 4-dimensional black holes as well as the null structures that appear in all…
In this paper, we present a comprehensive toolbox for studying Carrollian stretched horizons, encompassing their geometry, dynamics, symplectic geometry, symmetries, and corresponding Noether charges. We introduce a precise definition of…
In this work, a method for constructing null foliations of spacetime is presented. This method is used to specify equivalence classes of null generators, whose representatives can be associated lightlike co-normals that are locally affine…
We study asymptotically flat space-times in 3 dimensions for Einstein gravity near future null infinity and show that the boundary is described by Carrollian geometry. This is used to add sources to the BMS gauge corresponding to a…
Hypersurfaces embedded in conformal manifolds appear frequently as boundary data in boundary-value problems in cosmology and string theory. Viewed as the non-null conformal infinity of a spacetime, we consider hypersurfaces embedded in a…
Conformal Carroll symmetry generically arises on null manifolds and is important for holography of asymptotically flat spacetimes, generic black hole horizons and tensionless strings. In this paper, we focus on two dimensional (2d) null…
The geometry of P, the bundle of null directions over an Einstein space-time, is studied. The full set of invariants of the natural G-structure on P is constructed using the Cartan method of equivalence. This leads to an extension of P…
There is significant recent work on coupling matter to Newton-Cartan spacetimes with the aim of investigating certain condensed matter phenomena. To this end, one needs to have a completely general spacetime consistent with local…
In this work, we revisit Carrollian hydrodynamics, a type of non-Lorentzian hydrodynamics which has recently gained increasing attentions due to its underlying connection with dynamics of spacetime near null boundaries, and we aim at…
Carrollian Holography aims to provide a holographic description of quantum gravity in asymptotically flat spacetimes, in terms of a novel kind of `carrollian' conformal field theory defined on the spacetime null conformal boundary…
In this article, we consider some Carrollian dynamical systems as effective models on null hypersurfaces in a Lorentzian spacetime. We show that we can realize Carroll models from more usual ``relativistic'' theories. In particular, we show…
We discuss three different (conformally) Carrollian geometries and their relation to null infinity from the unifying perspective of Cartan geometry. Null infinity \emph{per se} comes with numerous redundancies in its intrinsic geometry and…
Geometrical analysis of a new type of Unified Field Theoretical models follow the guidelines of previous works of the authors is presented. These new unified theoretical models are characterized by an underlying hypercomplex structure, zero…
