Exact outer boundary conditions for gravitational perturbations of the Schwarzschild metric feature integral convolution between a time-domain boundary kernel and each radiative mode of the perturbation. For both axial (Regge-Wheeler) and polar (Zerilli) perturbations, we study the Laplace transform of such kernels as an analytic function of (dimensionless) Laplace frequency. We present numerical evidence indicating that each such frequency-domain boundary kernel admits a sum-of-poles representation. Our work has been inspired by Alpert, Greengard, and Hagstroms analysis of nonreflecting boundary conditions for the ordinary scalar wave equation.

For scalar, electromagnetic, or gravitational wave propagation on a fixed Schwarzschild blackhole background, we describe the exact nonlocal radiation outer boundary conditions (ROBC) appropriate for a spherical outer boundary of finite radius enclos
ing the blackhole. Derivation of the ROBC is based on Laplace and spherical-harmonic transformation of the Regge-Wheeler equation, the PDE governing the wave propagation, with the resulting radial ODE an incarnation of the confluent Heun equation. For a given angular index l the ROBC feature integral convolution between a time-domain radiation boundary kernel (TDRK) and each of the corresponding 2l+1 spherical-harmonic modes of the radiating wave. The TDRK is the inverse Laplace transform of a frequency-domain radiation kernel (FDRK) which is essentially the logarithmic derivative of the asymptotically outgoing solution to the radial ODE. We numerically implement the ROBC via a rapid algorithm involving approximation of the FDRK by a rational function. Such an approximation is tailored to have relative error epsilon uniformly along the axis of imaginary Laplace frequency. Theoretically, epsilon is also a long-time bound on the relative convolution error. Via study of one-dimensional radial evolutions, we demonstrate that the ROBC capture the phenomena of quasinormal ringing and decay tails. Moreover, carrying out a numerical experiment in which a wave packet strikes the boundary at an angle, we find that the ROBC yield accurate results in a three-dimensional setting. Our work is a partial generalization to Schwarzschild wave propagation and Heun functions of the methods developed for flatspace wave propagation and Bessel functions by Alpert, Greengard, and Hagstrom.
We study scalar perturbations induced by scalar perturbations through the non-linear interaction appearing at second order in perturbations. We derive analytic solutions of the induced scalar perturbations in a perfect fluid. In particular, we consid
er the perturbations in a radiation-dominated era and a matter-dominated era. With the analytic solutions, we also discuss the power spectra of the induced perturbations.
It is now theoretically well established that not only a black hole can cast shadow, but other compact objects such as naked singularities, gravastar or boson stars can also cast shadows. An intriguing fact that has emerged is that the event horizon
and the photon sphere are not necessary for a shadow to form. Now, when two different types of equally massive compact objects cast shadows of same size, then it would be very difficult to distinguish them from each other. However, the nature of the nulllike and timelike geodesics around the two compact objects would be different, since their spacetime geometries are different. Therefore, the intensity distribution of light emitted by the accreting matter around the compact objects would also be different. In this paper, we emphasize this phenomenon in detail. Here, we show that a naked singularity spacetime, namely, the first type of Joshi-Malafarina-Narayan (JMN1) spacetime can be distinguishable from the Schwarzschild blackhole spacetime by the intensity distribution of light, though they have same mass and shadow size. We also use the image processing techniques here to show this difference, where we use the theoretical intensity data. The differences that we get by using the image processing technique may be treated as a theoretical template of intensity differences, which may be useful to analyse the observational data of the image of a compact object.
In the context of ghost-free, infinite derivative gravity, we will provide a quantum mechanical framework in which we can describe astrophysical objects devoid of curvature singularity and event horizon. In order to avoid ghosts and singularity, the
gravitational interaction has to be nonlocal, therefore, we call these objects as nonlocal stars. Quantum mechanically a nonlocal star is a self-gravitational bound system of many gravitons interacting nonlocally. Outside the nonlocal star the spacetime is well described by the Schwarzschild metric, while inside we have a non-vacuum spacetime metric which tends to be conformally flat at the origin. Remarkably, in the most compact scenario the radius of a nonlocal star is of the same order of the Buchdahl limit, therefore slightly larger than the Schwarzschild radius, such that there can exist a photosphere. These objects live longer than a Schwarzschild blackhole and they are very good absorbers, due to the fact that the number of available states is larger than that of a blackhole. As a result nonlocal stars, not only can be excellent blackhole mimickers, but can also be considered as dark matter candidates. In particular, nonlocal stars with masses below $10^{14}$g can be made stable compared to the age of the Universe.
We extend previous work [arXiv:1908.09095] to the case of Maxwells equations with a source. Our work shows how to construct a retarded vector potential for the Maxwell field on the Kerr-Newman background in a radiation gauge. As in our previous work,
the vector potential has a reconstructed term obtained from a Hertz potential solving Teukolskys equation with a source, and a correction term which is obtainable by a simple integration along outgoing principal null rays. The singularity structure of our vector potential is discussed in the case of a point particle source.
