In a recent work I showed that the family of smooth steep time functions can be used to recover the order, the topology and the (Lorentz-Finsler) distance of spacetime. In this work I present the main ideas entering the proof of the (smooth) distance formula, particularly the product trick which converts metric statements into causal ones. The paper ends with a second proof of the distance formula valid in globally hyperbolic Lorentzian spacetimes.

We focus on the Penroses Weyl Curvature Hypothesis in a general framework encompassing many specific models discussed in literature. We introduce a candidate density for the Weyl entropy in pure spacetime perfect fluid regions and show that it is mon otonically increasing in time under very general assumptions. Then we consider the behavior of the Weyl entropy of compact regions, which is shown to be monotone in time as well under suitable hypotheses, and also maximal in correspondence with vacuum static metrics. The minimal entropy case is discussed too.

We show that finiteness of the Lorentzian distance is equivalent to the existence of generalised time functions with gradient uniformly bounded away from light cones. To derive this result we introduce new techniques to construct and manipulate achro nal sets. As a consequence of these techniques we obtain a functional description of the Lorentzian distance extending the work of Franco and Moretti.

We study a perturbation begin{equation} Delta u + P | abla u| = h | abla u|, end{equation} of spacetime Laplacian equation in an initial data set $(M, g, p)$ where $P$ is the trace of the symmetric 2-tensor $p$ and $h$ is a smooth function.
Using the methods of ordinary quantum mechanics we study $kappa$-Minkowski space as a quantum space described by noncommuting self-adjoint operators, following and enlarging arXiv:1811.08409. We see how the role of Fourier transforms is played in thi s case by Mellin transforms. We briefly discuss the role of transformations and observers.

We derive the equations governing the linear stability of Kerr-Newman spacetime to coupled electromagnetic-gravitational perturbations. The equations generalize the celebrated Teukolsky equation for curvature perturbations of Kerr, and the Regge-Whee ler equation for metric perturbations of Reissner-Nordstrom. Because of the apparent indissolubility of the coupling between the spin-1 and spin-2 fields, as put by Chandrasekhar, the stability of Kerr-Newman spacetime can not be obtained through standard decomposition in modes. Due to the impossibility to decouple the modes of the gravitational and electromagnetic fields, the equations governing the linear stability of Kerr-Newman have not been previously derived. Using a tensorial approach that was applied to Kerr, we produce a set of generalized Regge-Wheeler equations for perturbations of Kerr-Newman, which are suitable for the study of linearized stability by physical space methods. The physical space analysis overcomes the issue of coupling of spin-1 and spin-2 fields and represents the first step towards an analytical proof of the stability of the Kerr-Newman black hole.
