The asymptotic method of post-Newtonian (PN) expansion for weak gravitational fields, recently developed, is compared with the standard method of PN expansion, in the particular case of a massive test particle moving along a geodesic line…
Standard choices of quasi-circular orbit parameters for black-hole binary evolutions result in eccentric inspiral. We introduce a conceptually simple method, which is to integrate the post-Newtonian equations of motion through hundreds of…
We analytically derive the secular changes of the orbital parameters, i.e., energy, angular momentum, and Carter constant, for general bound orbits in Kerr spacetime, at leading order in the mass ratio, through the 6th post-Newtonian (6PN)…
Highly accurate closed-form expressions that describe the full trajectory of photons propagating in the equatorial plane of a Kerr black hole are obtained using asymptotic approximants. This work extends a prior study of the overall bending…
The method of asymptotic expansions is used to build an approximation scheme relevant to celestial mechanics in relativistic theories of gravitation. A scalar theory is considered, both as a simple example and for its own sake. This theory…
Recent discovery of kilohertz quasi-periodic brightness oscillations of low mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) has attracted attention to highly relativistic periodic motion near accreting neutron stars. Most models proposed so far involve…
We introduce a numerical method for the approximation of functions which are analytic on compact intervals, except at the endpoints. This method is based on variable transforms using particular parametrized exponential and…
We derive alternate and new closed-form analytic solutions for the non-equatorial eccentric bound trajectories, $\{ \phi \left( r, \theta \right)$, $\ t \left( r, \theta \right),\ r \left( \theta \right) \}$, around a Kerr black hole by…
We present various post-Newtonian (PN) models for the phase evolution of compact objects moving along quasi-spherical orbits in Kerr spacetime derived by using the 12PN analytic formulas of the energy, angular momentum and their averaged…
The generalized post-Keplerian parametrization for compact binaries on eccentric bound orbits is established at second post-Newtonian (2PN) order in a class of massless scalar-tensor theories. This result is used to compute the…
Eccentric black-hole binaries are among the most awaited sources of gravitational waves, yet their dynamics lack a consistent framework that provides a detailed and physically robust evolutionary description due to gauge issues. We present…
We study eccentric equatorial orbits of a test-body around a Kerr black hole under the influence of gravitational radiation reaction. We have adopted a well established two-step approach: assuming that the particle is moving along a…
The Fourier extension method, also known as the Fourier continuation method, is a method for approximating non-periodic functions on an interval using truncated Fourier series with period larger than the interval on which the function is…
We investigate the weak-field, post-Newtonian expansion to the solution of the field equations in Chern-Simons gravity with a perfect fluid source. In particular, we study the mapping of this solution to the parameterized post-Newtonian…
The perimeter of an ellipse has no exact closed-form expression in terms of elementary functions, and numerous approximations have been proposed since the eighteenth century. Classical formulas by Fagnano, Euler, and Ramanujan, as well as…
Parameter shift rules (PSRs) are useful methods for computing arbitrary-order derivatives of the cost function in parameterized quantum circuits. The basic idea of PSRs is to evaluate the cost function at different parameter shifts, then…
Characterizing eccentricity in gravitational waveforms in a consistent manner is crucial to facilitate parameter estimation, astrophysical population studies, as well as searches for these rare systems. We present a framework to…
We have performed a detailed analysis of orbital motion in the vicinity of a nearly extremal Kerr black hole. For very rapidly rotating black holes (spin a=J/M>0.9524M) we have found a class of very strong field eccentric orbits whose…
The linear in mass ratio correction to the periapsis advance of equatorial orbits around a spinning black hole is calculated for the first time and to very high precision, providing a key benchmark for different approaches modelling…
We consider the high spin expansion for the null geodesics in the Kerr spacetime. We expand the null geodesic equation successively to higher orders in deviation from extremity. Via the method of matched asymptotic expansion, the radial…
