The ``moving puncture'' technique has led to dramatic advancements in the numerical simulations of binary black holes. Hannam et.al. have recently demonstrated that, for suitable gauge conditions commonly employed in moving puncture…

The Kerr spacetime is perhaps the most astrophysically important of the currently known exact solutions to the Einstein field equations. Whenever spacetimes can be put in unit-lapse form it becomes possible to identify some very…

We derive the Teukolsky equation for perturbations of a Kerr spacetime when the spacetime metric is written in either ingoing or outgoing Kerr-Schild form. We also write explicit formulae for setting up the initial data for the Teukolsky…

The non-linear stability of the sub-extremal Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetime in the stationary region near the conformal boundary is analysed using a technique based on the extended conformal Einstein field equations and a conformal…

In this paper, we elucidate the problem of gravitating Skyrmion governed by field equations of the Einstein-Skyrme system with no potential term in the Bondi coordinate. The spherical symmetry has to be assumed and both the metric functions…

In Schwarzschild spacetime the value $r=3m$ of the radius coordinate is characterized by three different properties: (a) there is a ``light sphere'', (b) there is ``centrifugal force reversal'', (c) it is the upper limiting radius for a…

The nature of the super-massive black hole candidates in galactic nuclei can be tested by analyzing the profile of the K$\alpha$ iron line observed in their X-ray spectrum. In this paper, we consider the possibility that the spacetime in…

We study the negative mass Schwarzschild spacetime, which has a naked singularity, and show that it is perturbatively unstable. This is achieved by first introducing a modification of the well known Regge - Wheeler - Zerilli approach to…

The Kerr-type solutions of the five-dimensional Einstein and Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet equations look pretty similar when written in Kerr-Schild form. However the Myers-Perry spacetime is circular whereas the rotating solution of the…

Time-dependent spherically-symmetric perturbations of Schwarzschild black holes are studied within torsion bigravity, i.e., within generalized Einstein-Cartan theories where the dynamical torsion carries massive spin-2 excitation. We reduce…

We investigate proper infall times in the Schwarzschild and Kerr spacetimes from a covariant perspective, focusing on the role of black--hole rotation in the focusing properties of timelike geodesic congruences.To perform a geometrically…

The Schwarzschild exterior space-time is conformally related to a direct product space-time, $\mathcal{M}_2 \times S_2$, where $\mathcal{M}_2$ is a two-dimensional space-time. This direct product structure arises naturally when considering…

In a previous paper we have considered the Regge-Wheeler equation for fields of spin $s=0$, $1$ or $2$ on the Schwarzschild spacetime in coordinates that are regular at the horizon. In particular, we have constructed in…

Five-dimensional generalization of (A)dS(5)-Kerr black hole is shown to be generated in a coordinate free way by a single AdS(5) global symmetry parameter. Its mass and angular momenta are associated to Casimir invariants of the background…

This article outlines our derivation of the second order perturbations to a Schwarzschild black hole, highlighting our use of, and necessary reliance on, computer algebra. The particular perturbation scenario that is presented here is the…

A general geometrical scheme is presented for the construction of novel classical gravity theories whose solutions obey two-sided bounds on the sectional curvatures along certain subvarieties of the Grassmannian of two-planes. The…

Using a yukawa type of metric we derive the kretschmann scalar for a general static black hole of a certain mass. The scalar gives the curvature of the space time as a function of the radial distance in the vicinity as well as inside of the…

We show that the classical double copy relationship for Kerr-Schild spacetimes can be dimensionally reduced to give a natural notion of the double copy for Kaluza-Klein theory with gravity coupled to a gauge field and a dilaton. Under…

We review results on the spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat Einstein-Vlasov system. We focus on a recent result where we found explicit conditions on the initial data which guarantee the formation of a black hole in the evolution.…

Arising from admissible extended scale-critical short-pulse initial data, we show that 3+1 dimensional Einstein vacuum equations admit dynamical Kerr black hole formation solutions. Our hyperbolic arguments combine the scale-critical…
