In 1981 Wyman classified the solutions of the Einstein--Klein--Gordon equations with static spherically symmetric spacetime metric and vanishing scalar potential. For one of these classes, the scalar field linearly grows with time. We generalize this symmetry noninheriting solution, perturbatively, to a rotating one and extend the static solution exactly to arbitrary spacetime dimensions. Furthermore, we investigate the existence of nonminimally coupled, time-dependent real scalar fields on top of static black holes, and prove a no-hair theorem for stealth scalar fields on the Schwarzschild background.

It has been well known since the 1970s that stationary black holes do not generically support scalar hair. Most of the no-hair theorems which support this depend crucially upon the assumption that the scalar field has no time dependence. Here we fill in this omission by ruling out the existence of stationary black hole solutions even when the scalar field may have time dependence. Our proof is fairly general, and in particular applies to non-canonical scalar fields and certain non-asymptotically flat spacetimes. It also does not rely upon the spacetime being a black hole.
Solution generating techniques for general relativity with a conformally (and minimally) coupled scalar field are pushed forward to build a wide class of asymptotically flat, axisymmetric and stationary spacetimes continuously connected to Kerr. This family contains, amongst other things, rotating extensions of the Bekenstein black hole and also its angular and mass multipolar generalisations. Further addition of NUT charge is also discussed.
Using the quasi-Maxwell formalism, we derive the necessary and sufficient conditions for the matching of two stationary spacetimes along a stationary timelike hypersurface, expressed in terms of the gravitational and gravitomagnetic fields and the 2-dimensional matching surface on the space manifold. We prove existence and uniqueness results to the matching problem for stationary perfect fluid spacetimes with spherical, planar, hyperbolic and cylindrical symmetry. Finally, we find an explicit interior for the cylindrical analogue of the NUT spacetime.
We search for self tuning solutions to the Einstein-scalar field equations for the simplest class of `Fab-Four models with constant potentials. We first review the conditions under which self tuning occurs in a cosmological spacetime, and by introducing a small modification to the original theory - introducing the second and third Galileon terms - show how one can obtain de Sitter states where the expansion rate is independent of the vacuum energy. We then consider whether the same self tuning mechanism can persist in a spherically symmetric inhomogeneous spacetime. We show that there are no asymptotically flat solutions to the field equations in which the vacuum energy is screened, other than the trivial one (Minkowski space). We then consider the possibility of constructing Schwarzschild de Sitter spacetimes for the modified Fab Four plus Galileon theory. We argue that the only model that can successfully screen the vacuum energy in both an FLRW and Schwarzschild de Sitter spacetime is one containing `John $sim G^{mu}{}_{ u} partial_{mu}phipartial^{ u}phi$ and a canonical kinetic term $sim partial_{alpha}phi partial^{alpha}phi$. This behaviour was first observed in (Babichev&Charmousis,2013). The screening mechanism, which requires redundancy of the scalar field equation in the `vacuum, fails for the `Paul term in an inhomogeneous spacetime.
The analysis of gravitino fields in curved spacetimes is usually carried out using the Newman-Penrose formalism. In this paper we consider a more direct approach with eigenspinor-vectors on spheres, to separate out the angular parts of the fields in a Schwarzschild background. The radial equations of the corresponding gauge invariant variable obtained are shown to be the same as in the Newman-Penrose formalism. These equations are then applied to the evaluation of the quasinormal mode frequencies, as well as the absorption probabilities of the gravitino field scattering in this background.
