Physical-space estimates for axisymmetric waves on extremal Kerr spacetime

Elena Giorgi, Jingbo Wan

We study axisymmetric solutions to the wave equation on extremal Kerr backgrounds and obtain integrated local energy decay (or Morawetz estimates) through an analysis \textit{exclu…

Wave equations estimates and the nonlinear stability of slowly rotating Kerr black holes

Elena Giorgi, Sergiu Klainerman, Jeremie Szeftel

This is the last part of our proof of the nonlinear stability of the Kerr family for small angular momentum, i.e , in which we deal with the nonlinear wave type estimat…

The Carter tensor and the physical-space analysis in perturbations of Kerr-Newman spacetime

Elena Giorgi

The Carter tensor is a Killing tensor of the Kerr-Newman spacetime, and its existence implies the separability of the wave equation. Nevertheless, the Carter operator is known to c…
