In this paper we investigate whether the holographic principle proposed in string theory has a classical counterpart in general relativity theory. We show that there is a partial correspondence: at least in the case of vacuum Petrov type D spacetimes that admit a non-trivial Killing tensor, which encompass all the astrophysical black hole spacetimes, there exists a one to one correspondence between gravity in bulk and a two dimensional classical conformal scalar field on a null boundary.

We prove that higher dimensional Einstein spacetimes which possess a geodesic, non-degenerate double Weyl aligned null direction (WAND) $ell$ must additionally possess a second double WAND (thus being of type D) if either: (a) the Weyl tensor obeys $C_{abc[d}ell_{e]}ell^c=0$ ($LeftrightarrowPhi_{ij}=0$, i.e., the Weyl type is II(abd)); (b) $ell$ is twistfree. Some comments about an extension of the Goldberg-Sachs theorem to six dimensions are also made.

We present the explicit metric forms for higher dimensional vanishing scalar invariant (VSI) Lorentzian spacetimes. We note that all of the VSI spacetimes belong to the higher dimensional Kundt class. We determine all of the VSI spacetimes which admit a covariantly constant null vector, and we note that in general in higher dimensions these spacetimes are of Ricci type III and Weyl type III. The Ricci type N subclass is related to the chiral null models and includes the relativistic gyratons and the higher dimensional pp-wave spacetimes. The spacetimes under investigation are of particular interest since they are solutions of supergravity or superstring theory.

We algebraically classify some higher dimensional spacetimes, including a number of vacuum solutions of the Einstein field equations which can represent higher dimensional black holes. We discuss some consequences of this work.
We prove that any asymptotically flat static spacetime in higher dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory must have no magnetic field. This implies that there are no static soliton spacetimes and completes the classification of static non-extremal black holes in this theory. In particular, these results establish that there are no asymptotically flat static spacetimes with non-trivial topology, with or without a black hole, in Einstein-Maxwell theory.
We discuss dynamics of massive Klein-Gordon fields in two-dimensional Anti-de Sitter spacetimes ($AdS_2$), in particular conserved quantities and non-modal instability on the future Poincare horizon called, respectively, the Aretakis constants and the Aretakis instability. We find out the geometrical meaning of the Aretakis constants and instability in a parallel-transported frame along a null geodesic, i.e., some components of the higher-order covariant derivatives of the field in the parallel-transported frame are constant or unbounded at the late time, respectively. Because $AdS_2$ is maximally symmetric, any null hypersurfaces have the same geometrical properties. Thus, if we prepare parallel-transported frames along any null hypersurfaces, we can show that the same instability emerges not only on the future Poincare horizon but also on any null hypersurfaces. This implies that the Aretakis instability in $AdS_2$ is the result of singular behaviors of the higher-order covariant derivatives of the fields on the whole $AdS$ infinity, rather than a blow-up on a specific null hypersurface. It is also discussed that the Aretakis constants and instability are related to the conformal Killing tensors. We further explicitly demonstrate that the Aretakis constants can be derived from ladder operators constructed from the spacetime conformal symmetry.
