In the Bondi-Sachs gauge, the Einstein equations with a cosmological constant coupled to a scalar field in spherical symmetry are cast into a first order strongly hyperbolic formulation in which the lapse and shift are the fundamental…
A major issue in general relativity, from its earliest days to the present, is how to extract physical information from any solution or class of solutions to the Einstein equations. Though certain information can be obtained for arbitrary…

Various equivalences between so-called soft theorems which constrain scattering amplitudes and Ward identities related to asymptotic symmetries have recently been established in gauge theories and gravity. So far these equivalences have…

We study the spacetime structures of the static solutions in the $n$-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet-$\Lambda$ system systematically. We assume the Gauss-Bonnet coefficient $\alpha$ is non-negative. The solutions have the…
Outer boundary conditions for strongly and symmetric hyperbolic formulations of 3D Einstein's field equations with a live gauge condition are discussed. The boundary conditions have the property that they ensure constraint propagation and…

This article is the second of two in which we develop a geometric framework for analysing silent and anisotropic big bang singularities. In the present article, we record geometric conclusions obtained by combining the geometric framework…
For a spherically symmetric self-gravitating scalar field we study self similar and quasi-self similar solutions in asymptotically flat and AdS spacetimes in various dimensions. Our main approach relies on reducing the Einstein-Klein-Gordon…
