We point out that the Myers-Perry metric in five dimensions is algebraically special. It has Petrov type \underline{22}, which is the Petrov type of the five-dimensional Schwarzschild metric.

We classify all five-dimensional Einstein manifolds that are static, have an SO(3) isometry group and have Petrov type 22. We use this classification to show that the localized black hole in the Randall-Sundrum scenario necessarily has…

On an oriented 4-manifold, we examine the geometry that arises when the curvature operator of a Riemannian or Lorentzian metric $g$ commutes, not with its own Hodge star operator, but rather with that of another semi-Riemannian metric $h$…

In an effort to invariantly characterize the conformal curvature structure of analogue spacetimes built from a nonrelativistic fluid background, we determine the Petrov type of a variety of laboratory geometries. Starting from the simplest…

In general, geometries of Petrov type II do not admit symmetries in terms of Killing vectors or spinors. We introduce a weaker form of Killing equations which do admit solutions. In particular, there is an analog of the Penrose-Walker…

The Bel-Robinson tensor is analyzed as a linear map on the space of the traceless symmetric tensors. This study leads to an algebraic classification that refines the usual Petrov-Bel classification of the Weyl tensor. The new classes…

We analyze oriented Riemannian 4-manifolds whose Weyl tensors $W$ satisfy the conformally invariant condition $W(T,\cdot,\cdot,T) = 0$ for some nonzero vector $T$. While this can be algebraically classified via $W$'s normal form, we find a…

We explore the relationship in metric spaces between different properties related to the Besicovitch covering theorem, and also consider weak versions of doubling, in connection to the non-uniqueness of centers and radii in arbitrary metric…

Over an arbitrary field of characteristic different from $2$ admitting an anisotropic torsion $3$-fold Pfister form, we apply a construction due to Merkurjev to produce an algebra with orthogonal involution of degree $6$ which admits proper…

The vacuum and electrovacuum Einstein equations for spacetimes with two commuting Killing vectors can be solved by indirect methods of integrable systems. But if, in addition, the spacetime admits an irreducible Killing tensor and the…

The class of Petrov type I curvature tensors is further divided into those for which the span of the set of distinct principal null directions has dimension four (maximally spanning type I) or dimension three (nonmaximally spanning type I).…

We briefly overview the Petrov classification in four dimensions and its generalization to higher dimensions.

Higher order Bernstein- and Markov-type inequalities are established for trigonometric polynomials on compact subsets of the real line and algebraic polynomials on compact subsets of the unit circle. In the case of Markov-type inequalities…

We discuss Petrov type D Einstein-Maxwell fields in which both double null eigenvectors of the Weyl tensor are non-aligned with the eigenvectors of a non-null electromagnetic field and are assumed to be geodesic, shear-free, diverging and…

Exact analytic expressions for various characteristics of the hyperbolic-type orbits of a particle in the Schwarzschild geometry are presented. A useful simple approximation formula is given for the case when the deviation from the…

Using the general parametrization of spherically symmetric and asymptotically flat black holes in arbitrary metric theories of gravity and implying that: a) the post-Newtonian constraints are taken into account and b) basic astrophysically…

Standard (radiation-gauge) metric reconstruction excludes generic sources because it requires a tracefree metric perturbation. We remove this obstruction for perturbations of Petrov type D spacetimes by introducing a traceful radiation…

We adopt a vierbein formalism to study pseudo-Finsler spaces modeled on a pseudo-Minkowski space. We show that it is possible to obtain closed expressions for most of the geometric objects of the theory, including Berwald's curvature,…

We show that a spacetime satisfying the linearized vacuum Einstein equations around a type D background is generically of type I, and that the splittings of the Principal Null Directions (PNDs) and of the degenerate eigenvalue of the Weyl…

We derive a BBP-type formula for the remainder of the Madhava-Gregory-Leibniz series for $\pi$. The result is a closed form in base-$16$ with Pochhammer denominators. The analogous formula for the alternating series for $\log 2$ is also…
