Consistency Problems of Conformal Killing Gravity

Emel Altas, Bayram Tekin

We show that gravity field equations based on a tensor with rank greater than 2 have consistency problems in the sense that integration constants in the solutions, such as the para…

Vanishing of Conserved Charges in Cotton Gravity

Emel Altas, Bayram Tekin

Cotton gravity was recently introduced as a higher derivative extension of General Relativity. The field equations of the theory involve the rank-3 Cotton tensor. Here we show that…

Non-stationary Energy of Perfect Fluid Sources in General Relativity

Emel Altas, Bayram Tekin

The ADM energy for asymptotically flat spacetimes or its generalizations to asymptotically non-flat spacetimes measure the energy content of a stationary spacetime, such as a singl…

Hawking Temperature as the Total Gauss-Bonnet Invariant of the Region Outside a Black Hole

Emel Altas, Bayram Tekin

We provide two novel ways to compute the surface gravity () and the Hawking temperature of a stationary black hole: in the first method is given as the three-v…

Anomalous Dispersion in Gravity Theories

Emel Altas, Ercan Kilicarslan, Bayram Tekin

A wave pulse (be it a gravitational wave or a light wave) undergoes anomalous dispersion in a vacuum in flat spacetimes with an even number of spatial dimensions even if all the fr…

Perturbative solution of the Einstein Constraints with Spin and Momentum Far Away From a Binary Source in the Bowen-York formalism

Emel Altas, Emine Ertugrul, Bayram Tekin

We study the momentum and Hamiltonian constraints of vacuum Einstein equations, within the Bowen-York formalism, for two interacting black holes in close separation, with anti-para…

Basics of Apparent Horizons in Black Hole Physics

Emel Altas, Bayram Tekin

Event Horizon, a null hypersurface defining the boundary of the black hole region of a spacetime, is not particularly useful for evolving black holes since it is non-local in time.…

Approximate analytical description of apparent horizons for initial data with momentum and spin

Emel Altas, Bayram Tekin

We construct analytical initial data for a slowly moving and rotating black hole for generic orientations of the linear momentum and the spin. We solve the Hamiltonian constraint a…

Bowen-York Model Solution Redux

Emel Altas, Bayram Tekin

Initial value problem in General Relativity is often solved numerically; with only a few exceptions one of which is the "model" solution of Bowen and York where an analytical form…

Non-stationary Energy in General Relativity

Emel Altas, Bayram Tekin

Using the time evolution equations of (cosmological) General Relativity in the first order Fischer-Marsden form, we construct an integral that measures the amount of non-stationary…
