We derive a stationary and axisymmetric black hole solution to quadratic order in the spin angular momentum. The previously found, linear-in-spin terms modify the odd-parity sector of the metric, while the new corrections appear in the…
This note surveys how energy generation and strengthening has been used to prove Morawetz estimates for various field equations in Minkowski space, the exterior of the Schwarzschild spacetime, and the exterior of the Kerr spacetime. It…
In this paper we consider solutions to the linear wave equation on higher dimensional Schwarzschild black hole spacetimes and prove robust nondegenerate energy decay estimates that are in principle required in a nonlinear stability problem.…
The detection of gravitational waves resulting by the LIGO-Virgo-Kagra collaboration has inaugurated a new era in gravitational physics, providing an opportunity to test general relativity and its modifications in the strong gravity regime.…
We semianalytically investigate the scalar self-force experienced in the final stages of extreme mass ratio inspirals of nonspinning scalar particles into supermassive nearly extremal Kerr black holes. We exploit the near-horizon conformal…
We prove that a large class of smooth solutions $\psi$ to the linear wave equation $\Box_g\psi=0$ on subextremal rotating Kerr spacetimes which are regular and decaying along the event horizon become singular at the Cauchy horizon. More…
We study the defocusing semilinear wave equation in ${\mathbb{R}}\times{\mathbb{R}}^2\backslash{\mathcal K}$ with the Dirichlet boundary condition, where ${\mathcal K}$ is a star-shaped obstacle with smooth boundary. We first show that the…
Recent measurements of gravitational-wave ringdown following the merger of binary black holes raise the prospect of precision black hole spectroscopy in the near future. To perform the most sensitive tests of the nature of black holes using…
We present a new vector field approach to almost-sharp decay for the wave equation on spherically symmetric, stationary and asymptotically flat spacetimes. Specifically, we derive a new hierarchy of higher-order weighted energy estimates by…
Motivated by the goal for high accuracy modeling of gravitational radiation emitted by isolated systems, recently, there has been renewed interest in the numerical solution of the hyperboloidal initial value problem for Einstein's field…
We consider the Cauchy problem for the wave equation in a general class of spherically symmetric black hole geometries. Under certain mild conditions on the far-field decay and the singularity, we show that there is a unique globally smooth…
Given a characteristic initial value problem with smooth data representing a dynamical event horizon settling down to that of Kerr in the subextremal, strictly rotating range with suitable upper and lower bounds, we prove that a weak null…
We generalize our previous work on gravitational lensing by a Kerr black hole in the strong deflection limit, removing the restriction to observers on the equatorial plane. Starting from the Schwarzschild solution and adding corrections up…
We study analytically, via the Newman-Penrose formalism, the late-time decay of linear electromagnetic and gravitational perturbations along the event horizon (EH) of black holes. We first analyze in detail the case of a Schwarzschild black…
We revisit global existence and decay for small-data solutions of semilinear wave equations on extremal Reissner-Nordstr\"om black hole backgrounds satisfying the classical null condition, a problem which was previously addressed by the…
Gravitational perturbations about a Kerr black hole in the Newman-Penrose formalism are concisely described by the Teukolsky equation. New numerical methods for studying the evolution of such perturbations require not only the construction…
This is the second part of a series of papers deriving the precise, late-time behaviour and (in)stability properties of charged scalar fields on near-extremal Reissner--Nordstr\"om spacetimes via energy estimates. In this paper, we use…
These lecture notes, based on a course given at the Zurich Clay Summer School (June 23-July 18, 2008), review our current mathematical understanding of the global behaviour of waves on black hole exterior backgrounds. Interest in this…
In this paper, we study the future causally geodesically complete solutions of the spherically symmetric Einstein-scalar field system. Under the a priori assumption that the scalar field $\phi$ scatters locally in the scale-invariant…
Black hole perturbation theory for Kerr black holes is best studied in the Newman Penrose Formalism, in which gravitational waves are described as perturbations in the Weyl scalars $\psi_0$ and $\psi_4$, with the governing equation being…
