We study the passive transport of a scalar field by a spatially smooth but white-in-time incompressible Gaussian random velocity field on $\mathbb{R}^d$. If the velocity field $u$ is homogeneous, isotropic, and statistically self-similar,…

The recent simultaneous detection of gravitational waves and a gamma ray burst from a neutron star merger significantly shrank the space of viable scalar-tensor theories by demanding that the speed of gravity is equal to that of light. The…

We propose a new set of BMS charges at null infinity, characterized by a super-translation flux that contains only the `hard' term. This is achieved with a specific corner improvement of the symplectic 2-form, and we spell the conditions…
