In general relativity, the double null foliation is one for which $d$-dimensional spacetime is foliated by two families of intersecting null hyper surfaces (i.e. surfaces whose normal vectors are null) of $(d-1)$ dimensions. Their…

Here the Weyl curvature hypothesis is examined using the gravitational entropy (GE). We have considered the family of C-metric accelerating black holes and evaluated their corresponding gravitational entropy. Then we studied the GE in some…

We consider the recently introduced mimetic gravity, which is a Weyl-symmetric extension of the General Relativity and which can play a role of an imperfect fluid-like Dark Matter with a small sound speed. In this paper we discuss in…

We describe a procedure for locating black hole horizons in Kerr-Schild spacetimes in the double copy paradigm. Using only single- and zeroth-copy data on flat spacetime, our procedure predicts the existence of trapped surfaces in the…
