This paper establishes two things in an asymptotically (anti-)de Sitter spacetime, by direct computations in the physical spacetime (i.e. with no involvement of spacetime compactification): (1) The peeling property of the Weyl spinor is…

Using Penrose diagrams the causal structure of the static spherically symmetric vacuum solution to conformal (Weyl) gravity is investigated. A striking aspect of the solution is an unexpected physical singularity at $r=0$ caused by a linear…
A new method to visualize the curvature of spacetime was recently proposed. This method finds the eigenvectors of the "electric" and "magnetic" components of the Weyl tensor and, in analogy to the field lines of electromagnetism, uses the…
We analyze a class of linear wave equations for odd half spin that have a well posed initial value problem. We demonstrate consistency of the equations in curved space-times. They generalize the Weyl neutrino equation. We show that there…
According to folklore in general relativity, the Weyl tensor can be decomposed into parts corresponding to Newton-like, incoming and outgoing wavelike field components. It is shown here that this one-to-one correspondence does not hold for…

Einstein's equations of General Relativity form a highly nonlinear system, so most exact solutions rely on symmetry assumptions. Spherically symmetric spacetimes have been particularly important, providing a tractable yet physically rich…
