We relate Bondi systems near space-like infinity to another type of gauge conditions. While the former are based on null infinity, the latter are defined in terms of Einstein propagation, the conformal structure, and data on some Cauchy…

We discuss the asymptotic structure of null infinity in five dimensional space-time. Since it is known that the conformal infinity is not useful for odd higher dimensions, we shall employ the coordinate based method like the Bondi…

In the companion paper [SciPost Phys. 13, 108 (2022), arXiv:2205.11401 [hep-th]] we have studied the solution space at null infinity for gravity in the partial Bondi gauge. This partial gauge enables to recover as particular cases and among…

We define the asymptotic flatness and discuss asymptotic symmetry at null infinity in arbitrary dimensions using the Bondi coordinates. To define the asymptotic flatness, we solve the Einstein equations and look at the asymptotic behavior…

In this work we give a complete picture of how to in a direct simple way define the mass at null infinity in harmonic coordinates in three different ways that we show satisfy the Bondi mass loss law. The first and second way involve only…

An idealized observer of an astronomical event is situated at future null infinity, where light rays emitted from the source approach. Mathematically, null infinity corresponds to the portion of the spacetime boundary defined by equivalence…

In our previous papers [arXiv:2106.03150, arXiv:2110.10917, arXiv:2208.00822], we analyzed the asymptotic behavior of future directed null geodesics near future null infinity and then we showed a proposition on the accessibility of the null…

Bondi-like (single-null) characteristic formulations of general relativity are used for numerical work in both asymptotically flat and anti-de Sitter spacetimes. Well-posedness of the resulting systems of partial differential equations,…

We study null hypersurfaces approaching null infinity in asymptotically flat spacetimes within the Bondi-Sachs gauge. The null Raychaudhuri constraint is shown to asymptote to the Bondi mass-loss formula, interpreted as a stress tensor…

We continue our study on the logarithmic balanced model metric initiated in our previous work. By a non-trivial refinement of the set of tools developed in our previous work, we are able to confirm partially a conjecture we made in our…

To study quantum gravity in asymptotically flat spacetimes, one would like to understand the algebra of observables at null infinity. Here we show that the Bondi mass cannot be observed in finite retarded time, and so is not contained in…

Gravitational waves with a space-translation Killing field are considered. In this case, the 4-dimensional Einstein vacuum equations are equivalent to the 3-dimensional Einstein equations with certain matter sources. This interplay between…

We give a geometrical definition of the asymptotic flatness at null infinity in spacetimes of even dimension $d$ greater than 4 within the framework of conformal infinity. Our definition is shown to be stable against perturbations to linear…

A new sufficient condition for photons emitted near future null infinity to reach future null infinity is derived by studying null geodesics in the Bondi coordinates in asymptotically flat spacetimes. In our previous works…

We obtain the general asymptotic solutions of Einstein gravity with or without cosmological constant in Bondi gauge. The Bondi gauge was originally introduced in the context of gravitational radiation in asymptotically flat gravity. In the…

We give a general geometric definition of asymptotic flatness at null infinity in $d$-dimensional general relativity ($d$ even) within the framework of conformal infinity. Our definition is arrived at via an analysis of linear perturbations…

A new sequential approach to investigations of structure of metric spaces at infinity is proposed. Criteria for finiteness and boundedness of metric spaces at infinity are found.

Following the recent work of Henneaux and Troessaert, which revisits the problem of spacetime symmetries at spatial infinity, we analyze this problem using the Bondi metric without determinant condition as our starting point. It turns out…

The positivity of the Bondi mass has been proven in 4 dimensions, but in higher dimensions the issue remains open. The formalism of the present paper has been developed to investigate this and is well suited to the higher dimensional case.…

We present the first numerical simulations of asymptotically flat space-times whose computational domain includes past and future null-infinity. As an application, we explore the scattering of a gravitational wave in a black hole…
