We construct a covariant phase space for rotating weakly isolated horizons in Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory in all (odd) $D\geq5$ dimensions. In particular, we show that horizons on the corresponding phase space satisfy the zeroth…

We consider generic static spacetimes with Killing horizons and study properties of curvature tensors in the horizon limit. It is determined that the Weyl, Ricci, Riemann and Einstein tensors are algebraically special and mutually aligned…

For sequences of warped product metrics on a $3$-torus satisfying the scalar curvature bound $R_j \geq -\frac{1}{j}$, uniform upper volume and diameter bounds, and a uniform lower area bound on the smallest minimal surface, we find a…

We study hypersurfaces with prescribed null expansion in an initial data set. We propose a notion of stability and prove a topology theorem. Eichmair's Perron approach toward the existence of marginally outer trapped surface adapts to the…

We give a simplified approach to Kunzinger & Saemann's theory of Lorentzian length spaces in the globally hyperbolic case; these provide a nonsmooth framework for general relativity. We close a gap in the regularly localizable setting, by…

We investigate the geometry of a twisting non-shearing congruence of null geodesics on a conformal manifold of even dimension greater than four and Lorentzian signature. We give a necessary and sufficient condition on the Weyl tensor for…

We show that the equation of motion of scalar-tensor theory acquires thermodynamic identity when projected on a generic null surface. The relevant projection is given by $E_{ab}l^ak^b$, where $E_{ab} =8\pi T_{ab}^{(m)}$ represents the…

We consider the spacetime geometry of a static but otherwise generic black hole (that is, the horizon geometry and topology are not necessarily spherically symmetric). It is demonstrated, by purely geometrical techniques, that the curvature…

Our interest lies in the recoverability properties of compressed tensors under the \textit{canonical polyadic decomposition} (CPD) model. The considered problem is well-motivated in many applications, e.g., hyperspectral image and video…
