Closed Timelike Curves from a Vacuum Traveling Wave

Semin Xavier

We construct an exact vacuum spacetime that develops closed timelike curves from regular, asymptotically flat initial data respecting the weak, dominant, and strong energy conditio…

Infinitely degenerate slowly rotating solutions in gravity

Alan Sunny, Semin Xavier, S. Shankaranarayanan

This work tests the no-hair conjecture in gravity models. No-hair conjecture asserts that all black holes in General Relativity coupled to any matter must be Kerr-Newman typ…

The dominating mode of two competing massive modes of quadratic gravity

Avijit Chowdhury, Semin Xavier, S. Shankaranarayanan

Over the last two decades, motivations for modified gravity have emerged from both theoretical and observational levels. and Chern-Simons gravity have received more attentio…

An exact model for evaporating primordial black holes in cosmological space-time

Semin Xavier, Alan Sunny, S. Shankaranarayanan

Primordial black holes (PBHs) in the mass range are considered as possible dark matter candidates as they are not subject to big-bang nucleosynthesis c…

Infinitely degenerate exact Ricci-flat solutions in f(R) gravity

Semin Xavier, Jose Mathew, S. Shankaranarayanan

We obtain an infinite number of exact static, Ricci-flat spherically symmetric vacuum solutions for a class of f(R) theories of gravity. We analytically derive two exact vacuum bla…
