A new method is presented for finding Killing tensors in spacetimes with symmetries. The method is used to find all the Killing tensors of Melvins magnetic universe and the Schwarzschild vacuum. We show that they are all trivial. The method requires less computation than solving the full Killing tensor equations directly, and it can be used even when the spacetime is not algebraically special.

Killing vectors play a crucial role in characterizing the symmetries of a given spacetime. However, realistic astrophysical systems are in most cases only approximately symmetric. Even in the case of an astrophysical black hole, one might expect Kill
ing symmetries to exist only in an approximate sense due to perturbations from external matter fields. In this work, we consider the generalized notion of Killing vectors provided by the almost Killing equation, and study the perturbations induced by a perturbation of a background spacetime satisfying exact Killing symmetry. To first order, we demonstrate that for nonradiative metric perturbations (that is, metric perturbations with nonvanishing trace) of symmetric vacuum spacetimes, the perturbed almost Killing equation avoids the problem of an unbounded Hamiltonian for hyperbolic parameter choices. For traceless metric perturbations, we obtain similar results for the second-order perturbation of the almost Killing equation, with some additional caveats. Thermodynamical implications are also explored.
There are many logically and computationally distinct characterizations of the surface gravity of a horizon, just as there are many logically rather distinct notions of horizon. Fortunately, in standard general relativity, for stationary horizons, mo
st of these characterizations are degenerate. However, in modified gravity, or in analogue spacetimes, horizons may be non-Killing or even non-null, and hence these degeneracies can be lifted. We present a brief overview of the key issues, specifically focusing on horizons in analogue spacetimes and universal horizons in modified gravity.
We examine the Hamiltonian formulation and hyperbolicity of the almost-Killing equation (AKE). We find that for all but one parameter choice, the Hamiltonian is unbounded, and in some cases, the AKE has ghost degrees of freedom. We also show the AKE
is only strongly hyperbolic for one parameter choice, which corresponds to a case in which the AKE has ghosts. Fortunately, one finds that the AKE reduces to the homogeneous Maxwell equation in a vacuum, so that with the addition of the divergence-free constraint (a Lorenz gauge), one can still obtain a well-posed problem that is stable in the sense that the corresponding Hamiltonian is positive definite. An analysis of the resulting Komar currents reveals an exact Gauss law for a system of black holes in vacuum spacetimes and suggests a possible measure of matter content in asymptotically flat spacetimes.
Keplers rescaling becomes, when Eisenhart-Duval lifted to $5$-dimensional Bargmann gravitational wave spacetime, an ordinary spacetime symmetry for motion along null geodesics, which are the lifts of Keplerian trajectories. The lifted rescaling gener
ates a well-behaved conserved Noether charge upstairs, which takes an unconventional form when expressed in conventional terms. This conserved quantity seems to have escaped attention so far. Applications include the Virial Theorem and also Keplers Third Law. The lifted Kepler rescaling is a Chrono-Projective transformation. The results extend to celestial mechanics and Newtonian Cosmology.
Small violations of spacetime symmetries have recently been identified as promising Planck-scale signals. This talk reviews how such violations can arise in various approaches to quantum gravity, how the emergent low-energy effects can be described w
ithin the framework of relativistic effective field theories, how suitable tests can be identified, and what sensitivities can be expected in current and near-future experiments.
