Necessary conditions for causality from linearized stability at ultra-high boosts

Shuvayu Roy, Sukanya Mitra, Rajeev Singh

In this work, we provide a novel method to constrain the causal parameter space of a relativistic hydrodynamic system exclusively from its linear stability analysis at non-zero mom…

Stochastic Evolution of Primordial Black Holes to near-extremality in EFTs of Gravity

Soham Acharya, Shuvayu Roy, Sudipta Sarkar

The search for dark matter candidates includes primordial black holes (PBHs) as possible constituents. Recent studies show that some PBHs can survive to the present epoch by gainin…

Relativistic Dispersion Spectra across Lorentz boosted frames: Spurious modes and the enigma of causality

Sayantani Bhattacharyya, Sukanya Mitra, Shuvayu Roy +1

The analysis of excitation spectra in gradient-expanded relativistic fluid theories frequently leads to pathologies under Lorentz boosts. However, extracting the dispersion modes i…

Ladder Symmetry: The Necessary and Sufficient Condition for Vanishing Love Numbers

Chanchal Sharma, Shuvayu Roy, Sudipta Sarkar

Black holes in four-dimensional, asymptotically flat general relativity have vanishing static tidal Love numbers (TLNs), a property tied to a hidden symmetry of the perturbation eq…

EFT Corrections to Majumdar-Papapetrou Black Holes

Soham Acharya, Shuvayu Roy, Sudipta Sarkar

Recent studies on extremal black holes within effective field theories (EFT) of gravity have revealed an intriguing phenomenon: tidal forces near the horizon experience significant…

Frame transformation and stable-causal hydrodynamic theory

Sayantani Bhattacharyya, Sukanya Mitra, Shuvayu Roy

In this work, a connection has been indicated between the different existing formulations of relativistic hydrodynamic theories, which, in order to be causal and stable, (i) either…
