We construct a Schwarzschild-type exact external solution for a theory of gravity admitting local Galilean invariance. In order to realize the Galilean invariance we need to adopt a five-dimensional manifold. The solution for the…
Wormholes are hypothetical objects which can be black hole mimickers with strong gravitational fields. Recently, Wielgus et al. have constructed reflection-asymmetric thin-shell wormholes which are composed of the parts of a Schwarzschild…
We show that gravity field equations based on a tensor with rank greater than 2 have consistency problems in the sense that integration constants in the solutions, such as the parameter $m$ in the Schwarzschild metric, do not allow for an…
We present a class of static supersymmetric multi-center black hole solutions arising in four-dimensional N=2 supergravity theories with terms quadratic in the Weyl tensor. We also comment on possible corrections to the metric on the moduli…
The notion of geometrical duality is discussed in the context of both Brans-Dicke theory and general relativity. It is shown that, in some particular solutions, the spacetime singularities that arise in usual Riemannian general relativity…
We study conformally-invariant theories of gravity in six dimensions. In four dimensions, there is a unique such theory that is polynomial in the curvature and its derivatives, namely Weyl-squared, and furthermore all solutions of Einstein…
We show that an ansatz for $1+3+n$ dimensional static spacetime with spherical symmetry in three dimensions and Euclidean symmetry in $n$ dimensions, parametrized by only one function of radial coordinate, leads to a limited set of vacuum…
Using effective field theory techniques, we compute quantum corrections to spherically symmetric solutions of Einstein's gravity and focus in particular on the Schwarzschild black hole. Quantum modifications are covariantly encoded in a…
We provide a simple derivation of the Schwarzschild solution in General Relativity, generalizing an early approach by Weyl, to include Birkhoff's theorem: constancy of the mass; its deeper, Hamiltonian, basis is also given. Our procedure is…
Weyl gravity has been advanced in the recent past as an alternative to General Relativity (GR). The theory has had some success in fitting galactic rotation curves without the need for copious amounts of dark matter. To check the viability…
We present a new complexification scheme based on the classical double layer potential for the solution of the Helmholtz equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions in compactly perturbed half-spaces in two and three dimensions. The kernel…
Deformations of gauged WZW actions are constructed for any pair $(G,H)$ by taking different embeddings of the gauge group $H\subset G$ as it acts on the left and right of the group element $g$. This leads to models that are dual to each…
We continue to study the response of black-hole space-times on the presence of additional strong sources of gravity. Restricting ourselves to static and axially symmetric (electro-)vacuum exact solutions of Einstein's equations, we first…
A Lie system is a system of first-order differential equations admitting a superposition rule, i.e., a map that expresses its general solution in terms of a generic family of particular solutions and certain constants. In this work, we use…
The one-loop quantum corrections to geometry and thermodynamics of black hole are studied for the two-dimensional RST model. We chose boundary conditions corresponding to the eternal black hole being in the thermal equilibrium with the…
Using bicomplex formalism we construct generalizations of Fordy-Kulish systems of matrix nonlinear Schroedinger equations on two-dimensional space-time in two respects. Firstly, we obtain corresponding equations in three space-time…
Cosmic censorship protects the outside world from black hole singularities and paves the way for assigning entropy to gravity at the event horizons. We point out a tension between cosmic censorship and the quantum backreacted geometry of…
The formation of spacetime singularities is a quite common phenomenon in General Relativity and it is regulated by specific theorems. It is widely believed that spacetime singularities do not exist in Nature, but that they represent a…
Recent quasi-optimal error estimates for the finite element approximation of total-variation regularized minimization problems require the existence of a Lipschitz continuous dual solution. We discuss the validity of this condition and…
We derive a Weyl invariant equation for Gravity by gauging the global Weyl invariance of vacuum Einstein equations. The equation is linear in the curvature and a natural generalization of Einstein equations to Weyl geometry. The system has…
