Kerr-Schild metrics have been introduced as a linear superposition of the flat spacetime metric and a squared null vector field, say $\boldsymbol{k}$, multiplied by some scalar function, say $H$. The basic assumption which led to Kerr…

We study the backwards-in-time stability of the Schwarzschild singularity from a dynamical PDE point of view. More precisely, considering a spacelike hypersurface $\Sigma_0$ in the interior of the black hole region, tangent to the singular…

Starting from Newton's gravitational theory, we give a general introduction into the spherically symmetric solution of Einstein's vacuum field equation, the Schwarzschild(-Droste) solution, and into one specific stationary axially symmetric…

Using the Ernst formalism, a novel solution of vacuum general relativity (GR) was recently obtained [1], describing a Schwarzschild black hole (BH) immersed in a nonasymptotically flat rotating background, dubbed swirling universe, with the…

We prove a threshold-sharp stability theory for the conformal scalar-curvature sector on zero-curvature Carter backgrounds. The main result is a fully closed bounded-slab theorem: the reflecting evolution is constructed, the conserved…

According to Birkhoff's theorem the only spherically symmetric solution of the vacuum Einstein field equations is the Schwarzschild solution. Inspite of imposing asymptotically flatness and staticness as initial conditions we obtain that…

Static spherically symmetric uncoupled scalar space-times have no event horizon and a divergent Kretschmann singularity at the origin of the coordinates. The singularity is always present so that non-static solutions have been sought to see…

We demonstrate that generic two-dimensional Horndeski theories can arise from the reduction of pure gravities in $d \geq 4$ dimensions, and therefore generic onshell configurations for the two-dimensional metric and scalar field correspond…

We present a novel approach to establish the Birkhoff's theorem validity in the so-called quadratic Poincar\'e Gauge theories of gravity. By obtaining the field equations via the Palatini formalism, we find paradigmatic scenarios where the…

Rastall's theory belongs to the class of non-conservative theories of gravity. In vacuum, the only non-trivial static, spherically symmetric solution is the Schwarzschild one, except in a very special case. When a canonical scalar field is…
