Effective field theory descriptions of surface waves on flowing fluids have tended to assume that the flow is irrotational, but this assumption is often impractical due to boundary layer friction and flow recirculation. Here we develop an…

We examine the solution of the constraints in spherically symmetric general relativity when spacetime has a flat spatial hypersurface. We demonstrate explicitly that given one flat slice, a foliation by flat slices can be consistently…

We consider the thermodynamics of a horizon surface from the viewpoint of the vacuum tension $\tau =(c^4/4G )$. Numerically, $\tau \approx 3.026\times 10^{43}$ Newton. In order of magnitude, this is the tension that has been proposed for…

The low frequency part of the gravitational wave spectrum generated by local physics, such as a phase transition or parametric resonance, is largely fixed by causality, offering a clean window into the early Universe. In this work, this low…
In this paper, we study the linearized gravity theory in the near horizon region of the Schwarzschild black hole in four dimensional spacetime. Under the Newman-Unti gauge, we derive the most general near horizon symmetry and solution space…
We introduce simple generic models of surface dynamics in loop quantum gravity (LQG). A quantum surface is defined as a set of elementary patches of area glued together. We provide it with an extra structure of locality (nearest neighbors),…
In this work, we analyse static spherically symmetric solutions in the framework of mimetic gravity, an extension of general relativity where the conformal degree of freedom of gravity is isolated in a covariant fashion. Here we extend…
The study of circular orbits is fundamental in gravitational physics, yet their definition in dynamical spacetimes remains challenging due to the lack of temporal symmetry. In this work, we establish a unified framework by commencing from…
The horizon (the surface) of a black hole is a null surface, defined by those hypothetical "outgoing" light rays that just hover under the influence of the strong gravity at the surface. Because the light rays are orthogonal to the spatial…
Asymptotic spacetime symmetries have been conjectured to play an important role in quantum gravity. In this paper we study the breaking of asymptotic symmetries associated with a null horizon boundary. In two-dimensions, these symmetries…
