surfaces and global coordinates in black hole spacetimes
Bernardo Araneda, Bernard F. Whiting
We present a discussion of the periodicity in imaginary time of maximally extended black hole spacetimes without reference to Euclidean manifolds. As motivation, we first demonstra…
Mode Stability For Massless Scalars In Five-Dimensional Black Hole Backgrounds
M. Cvetic, C. N. Pope, B. F. Whiting +1
The mode stability of the Kerr black hole in four dimensions was demonstrated by Whiting in 1989, by separating the Teukolsky equation that describes gravitational perturbations an…
Supergravity Black Holes, Love Numbers and Harmonic Coordinates
M. Cvetic, G. W. Gibbons, C. N. Pope +1
To perform realistic tests of theories of gravity, we need to be able to look beyond general relativity and evaluate the consistency of alternative theories with observational data…
The First-Order Velocity Memory Effect from Compact Binary Coalescing Sources
Atul K. Divakarla, Bernard F. Whiting
It has long been known that gravitational waves from compact binary coalescing sources are responsible for a first-order displacement memory effect experienced by a pair of freely…
On the geometry of Petrov type II spacetimes
Steffen Aksteiner, Lars Andersson, Bernardo Araneda +1
In general, geometries of Petrov type II do not admit symmetries in terms of Killing vectors or spinors. We introduce a weaker form of Killing equations which do admit solutions. I…
Classical Tools for Antipodal Identification in Reissner-Nordström Spacetime
Nathaniel A. Strauss, Bernard F. Whiting, Anne T. Franzen
We extend the discussion of the antipodal identification of black holes to the Reissner-Nordström (RN) spacetime by developing the classical tools necessary to define the correspon…
