Soldering freedom and BMS-like transformations
arXiv:1707.01112 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.98.104009
Abstract
When two spacetimes are stitched across a null-shell placed at the horizon of a black hole BMS-supertranslation like soldering freedom arises if one demands the induced metric on the horizon shell should remain invariant under the translations generated by the null generators of the shell. We revisit this phenomenon at the horizon of rotating shells and obtain BMS like symmetries. We further show that superrotation like soldering symmetries in the form of conformal isometries can emerge whenever the degenerate metric of any null hypersurface admits a dependency on null (degenerate direction) coordinate. This kind of conformal isometry can also appear for a null surface situated very close to the horizon of black holes. We also study the intrinsic properties of different kinds of horizon shells considered in this note.
