We describe a novel method to measure the surface charge densities on optical fibers placed in the vicinity of a trapped ion, where the ion itself acts as the probe. Surface charges distort the trapping potential, and when the fibers are…
I will discuss some recent results on marginally outer trapped surfaces, apparent horizons, and the trapped region. A couple of applications of the results developed for marginally outer trapped surfaces to coalescence of black holes and to…
Within a semiclassical framework, we investigate spherically symmetric solutions of the Einstein equations that (i) develop a trapped region within a finite time as measured by distant observers, and (ii) remain sufficiently regular at the…
Topography and gravity are geophysical fields whose joint statistical structure derives from interface-loading processes modulated by the underlying mechanics of isostatic and flexural compensation in the shallow lithosphere. Under this…
We prove trapped-surface formation for the Einstein-Weyl spinor system (gravity coupled to a massless left-handed two-spinor) without any symmetry assumption. To this end we establish a semi-global solution under double null foliation and…
Penrose's original heuristic for his eponymous spacetime inequality -- a conjectured lower bound on the ADM mass in terms of the area of a horizon cross-section -- relies on the black hole final state conjecture. In this paper we isolate a…
The Bardeen solution corresponding to Einstein field equations with a cosmological constant is a regular black hole. The main goal of this manuscript is to investigate the geometric structures in terms of curvature conditions admitted by…
We introduce a natural generalization of marginally outer trapped surfaces, called immersed marginally outer trapped surfaces, and prove that three dimensional asymptotically flat initial data sets either contain such surfaces or are…
We prove the existence of asymptotically hyperbolic solutions to the vacuum Einstein constraint equations with a marginally outer trapped boundary of positive mean curvature, using the constant mean curvature conformal method. As an…
We investigate within the Darmois-Israel thin shell formalism the match of neutral and asymptotically flat, slowly rotating spacetimes (up to the second order in the rotation parameter) when their boundaries are dynamic. It has several…
The AdS/hydrodynamics correspondence provides a 1-1 map between large wavelength features of AdS black branes and conformal fluid flows. In this note we consider boundaries between nonrelativistic flows, applying the usual boundary…
We study inverse problems in anisotropic elasticity using tools from algebraic geometry. The singularities of solutions to the elastic wave equation in dimension $n$ with an anisotropic stiffness tensor have propagation kinematics captured…
We extend Bousso's notion of a lightsheet - a surface where entropy can be defined in a way so that the entropy bound is satisfied - to more general surfaces. Intuitively these surfaces may be regarded as deformations of the Bousso choice;…
For spaces which are not asymptotically anti-de Sitter where the asymptotic behavior is deformed by replacing the cosmological constant by a dilaton scalar potential, we show that it is possible to have well-defined boundary stress-energy…
Extremely compact objects containing a region of trapped null geodesics could be of astrophysical relevance due to trapping of neutrinos with consequent impact on cooling processes or trapping of gravitational waves. These objects have…
We present a systematic investigation of the thermodynamic topology for a broad class of asymptotically charged Anti-de Sitter (AdS) black holes in Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton (EMD) theories, examining how scalar coupling parameters and…
I review the AdS/hydrodynamics correspondence, which provides a 1-1 map between large wavelength features of AdS black branes and conformal fluid flows. In this thesis I consider boundaries between nonrelativistic flows, applying the usual…
In this thesis, we focus on higher-curvature extensions of Einstein gravity as toy models to probe universal properties of conformal field theory (CFT) using the gauge/gravity duality. In this context, we are particularly interested in…
In this paper, we present a new approach of creating PTAS to the TSP problems by defining a bounded-curvature surface embedded spaces. Using this definition we prove: - A bounded-curvature surface embedded spaces TSP admits to a PTAS. -…
We investigate a trapped surface and naked singularity in a $D$-dimensional Vaidya spacetime with a self-similar mass function. A trapped surface is defined as a closed spacelike $(D-2)$-surface which has negative both null expansions.…
