In previous work, we developed tools for quantifying the tidal distortion of a black hole's event horizon due to an orbiting companion. These tools use techniques which require large mass ratios (companion mass $\mu$ much smaller than black…

The technique of dimensional reduction was used in a recent paper (Zanchin et al, Phys. Rev. D66, 064022,(2002)) where a three-dimensional (3D) Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton theory was built from the usual four-dimensional (4D)…

We review in a pedagogical fashion the 3+1-split which serves to put Einstein's equations into the form of a dynamical system with constraints. We then discuss the constraint equations under the simplifying assumption of time-symmetry.…
In this paper, by means of regularisation procedure via $r\to \sqrt{r^2+l_0^2}$ (where $l_0$ can play the role of zero point length), we first modify the gravitational and electromagnetic potentials in two dimensions and then we solve the…
