The purpose of the present work is to extend the earlier results for asymptotically flat vacuum space-times to asymptotically flat solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations. Once again, in this case, we get a class of asymptotically…
We show that, unlike vacuum General Relativity, Einstein-scalar theories allow balanced static, neutral, asymptotically flat, double-black hole solutions, for scalar field models minimally coupled to gravity, with appropriate…
In a recent seminal paper \cite{D-H-R} of Dafermos, Holzegel and Rodnianski the linear stability of the Schwarzschild family of black hole solutions to the Einstein vacuum equations was established by imposing a double null gauge. In this…
We present a new proof of linear stability of the Schwarzschild solution to gravitational perturbations. Our approach employs the system of linearised gravity in the new geometric gauge of \cite{benomio_kerr}, specialised to the $|a|=0$…
We derive Einstein's equations from a linear theory in flat space-time using free-field gauge invariance and universal coupling. The gravitational potential can be either covariant or contravariant and of almost any density weight. We adapt…
We derive a geometrical version of the Regge-Wheeler and Zerilli equations, which allows us to study gravitational perturbations on an arbitrary spherically symmetric slicing of a Schwarzschild black hole. We explain how to obtain the…
A mathematical proof is given that Maxwell's equations are an {\it artifact} of Hodge theory together with the laws of Gauss and Amp\`ere, taken as axioms. They are thus geometric in nature, independent of any specific physical mechanisms,…
It is shown how the gauge of the ``regular finite initial value problem at spacelike infinity'' can be used to construct a certain type of estimates for the Maxwell field propagating on a Schwarzschild background. These estimates are…
Odd-type spin 2 perturbations of Einstein's equation can be reduced to the scalar Regge-Wheeler equation. We show that the weighted norms of solutions are in L^2 of time and space. This result uses commutator methods and applies uniformly…
We construct a scattering theory for the spin $\pm2$ Teukolsky equations on the exterior of the Schwarzschild spacetime, as a first step towards developing a scattering theory for the linearised Einstein equations in double null gauge. This…
High-accuracy gravitational-wave modeling demands going beyond linear, first-order perturbation theory. Particularly motivated by the need for second-order perturbative models of extreme-mass-ratio inspirals and black hole ringdowns, we…
In this note we prove decay for the spin $\pm$1 Teukolsky Equations on the Schwarzschild spacetime. These equations are those satisfied by the extreme components ($\alpha$ and $\underline \alpha$) of the Maxwell field, when expressed with…
We introduce a convolution on a 2-sphere and use it to show that the linearised Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin transformations and gauge fixing conditions of Einstein-Hilbert gravity coupled to a two-form and a scalar field, follow from the…
In this paper we consider the field equations for linearized gravity and other integer spin fields on the Kerr spacetime, and more generally on spacetimes of Petrov type D. We give a derivation, using the GHP formalism, of decoupled field…
The generalized Maxwell equations with arbitrary gauge parameter are considered in the $11\times 11$-matrix form. The gauge invariance of such a model is broken due to the presence of a scalar field. The canonical and symmetrical Belinfante…
We obtain the Schwarzschild solution based on teleparallel gravity (TG) theory formulated in a space-time with torsion only. The starting point is the Poincar\UNICODE{0xe9} gauge theory (PGT).The general structure of TG and its connection…
We show that certain solutions to the linearized Einstein equation can---by the application of a particular type of linearized gauge transformation---be straightforwardly transformed into solutions of the exact Einstein equation. In cases…
In this paper, we address the issue of linear stability of Schwarzschild space- time subject to certain axisymmetric perturbations. In particular, we prove that associ- ated solutions to the linearized vacuum Einstein equations centered at…
We express Maxwell's equations as a single equation, first using the divergence of a special type of matrix field to obtain the four current, and then the divergence of a special matrix to obtain the Electromagnetic field. These two…
We investigate the vacuum and charged spherically symmetric static solutions of the Einstein equations on cosmological background. The background metric is not flat, but curved, with constant - curvature spatial sections. Both vacuum and…
