New Metrics Admitting the Principal Killing-Yano Tensor

Valeri P. Frolov, Pavel Krtous, David Kubiznak

It is believed that in any number of dimensions the off-shell Kerr-NUT-(A)dS metric represents a unique geometry admitting the principal (rank 2, non-degenerate, closed conformal K…

Spinning particles in general relativity: Momentum-velocity relation for the Mathisson-Pirani spin condition

L. Filipe O. Costa, Georgios Lukes-Gerakopoulos, Oldřich Semerák

The Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon (MPD) equations, providing the "pole-dipole" description of spinning test particles in general relativity, have to be supplemented by a condition spe…

Rotation of inertial frames by angular momentum of matter and waves

William Barker, Tomáš Ledvinka, Donald Lynden-Bell +1

We elucidate the dynamics of a thin spherical material shell with a tangential pressure, using a new approach. This is both simpler than the traditional method of extrinsic curvatu…

Perturbation of a Schwarzschild black hole due to a rotating thin disc

P. Čížek, O. Semerák

Will (1974) treated the perturbation of a Schwarzschild black hole due to a slowly rotating light concentric thin ring by solving the perturbation equations in terms of a multipole…

Kerr-Newman black hole in the formalism of isolated horizons

Martin Scholtz, Aleš Flandera, Norman Gürlebeck

The near horizon geometry of general black holes in equilibrium can be conveniently characterized in the formalism of weakly isolated horizons in the form of the Bondi-like expansi…

Entropy budget for Hawking evaporation

Ana Alonso-Serrano, Matt Visser

Blackbody radiation, emitted from a furnace and described by a Planck spectrum, contains (on average) an entropy of bits per photon. Since normal physical burning is a…

Weakly charged generalized Kerr-NUT-(A)dS spacetimes

Valeri P. Frolov, Pavel Krtous, David Kubiznak

We find an explicit solution of the source free Maxwell equations in a generalized Kerr-NUT-(A)dS spacetime in all dimensions. This solution is obtained as a linear combination of…

Weyl type N solutions with null electromagnetic fields in the Einstein-Maxwell -form theory

Martin Kuchynka, Alena Pravdova

We consider -dimensional solutions to the electrovacuum Einstein-Maxwell equations with the Weyl tensor of type N and a null Maxwell -form field. We prove that such space…

Black holes, hidden symmetries, and complete integrability

Valeri P. Frolov, Pavel Krtous, David Kubiznak

The study of higher-dimensional black holes is a subject which has recently attracted a vast interest. Perhaps one of the most surprising discoveries is a realization that the prop…

Penrose junction conditions extended: impulsive waves with gyratons

Jiri Podolsky, Robert Svarc, Roland Steinbauer +1

We generalize the classical junction conditions for constructing impulsive gravitational waves by the Penrose "cut and paste" method. Specifically, we study nonexpanding impulses w…

On the implications of the Bekenstein bound for black hole evaporation

Giovanni Acquaviva, Alfredo Iorio, Martin Scholtz

We provide general arguments regarding the connection between low-energy theories (gravity and quantum field theory) and a hypothetical fundamental theory of quantum gravity, under…

Yet another family of diagonal metrics for de Sitter and anti-de Sitter spacetimes

Jiri Podolsky, Ondrej Hruska

In this work we present and analyze a new class of coordinate representations of de Sitter and anti-de Sitter spacetimes for which the metrics are diagonal and (typically) static a…

NUT-like and near-horizon limits of Kerr-NUT-(A)dS spacetimes

Ivan Kolar, Pavel Krtous

We study a class of limits of the higher-dimensional Kerr-NUT-(A)dS spacetimes where particular roots of metric functions degenerate. Namely, we obtain the Taub-NUT-(A)dS and the e…
