SUMMARY:Duality in Einstein’s Gravity
DESCRIPTION:General Relativity Seminar \nSpeaker: Uri Kol\, CMSA \n\nTitle: Duality in Einstein’s Gravity \nAbstract: Electric-Magnetic duality has been a key feature behind our understanding of Quantum Field Theory for over a century. In this talk I will describe a similar property in Einstein’s gravity. The gravitational duality reveals\, in turn\, a wide range of new IR phenomena\, including aspects of the double copy for scattering amplitudes\, asymptotic symmetries and more.

SUMMARY:Strong Cosmic Censorship
DESCRIPTION:General Relativity Seminar \n\nSpeaker: Professor Oscar Dias (University of Southampton) \n\nTitle: Strong Cosmic Censorship \nAbstract: Generically\, strong cosmic censorship (SCC) is the statement that physics within general relativity should be predicted from initial data prescribed on a Cauchy hypersurface. In this talk I will review how fine-tuned versions of SCC have been formulated and evolved along the last decades up to the point where we believe that Christodoulou’s version is true in asymptotically flat spacetimes. However\, I will also describe that in recent years it was found that this is no longer necessarily true for some other backgrounds\, namely in some de Sitter (with a positive cosmological constant) spacetimes or even in rotating BTZ black holes in 3-dimensional Anti-de Sitter spacetime. Finally\, I will discuss some possibilities (quantum effects\, non-smooth initial data\,…) that might restore SCC in those backgrounds where the standard formulation of the conjecture is violated.

SUMMARY:Love Symmetry of Black Holes
DESCRIPTION:General Relativity Seminar \nSpeaker: Sergei Dubovsky (New York University)\n\n\n\nTitle: Love Symmetry of Black Holes\n\n\nAbstract: Perturbations of massless fields in the Kerr-Newman black hole background enjoy a (“Love”) SL(2\,ℝ) symmetry in the suitably defined near zone approximation. We show how the intricate behavior of black hole responses in four and higher dimensions can be understood from the SL(2\,ℝ) representation theory. In particular\, static perturbations of four-dimensional black holes belong to highest weight SL(2\,ℝ) representations. It is this highest-weight property that forces the static Love numbers to vanish. We show that the Love symmetry is tightly connected to the enhanced isometries of extremal black holes. The Love symmetry also exhibits a peculiar UV/IR mixing.

SUMMARY:Gravitational Wave\, Angular Momentum\, and Supertranslation Ambiguity
DESCRIPTION:General Relativity Seminar \n\nSpeaker: Naqing Xie (Fudan University) \nTitle: Gravitational Wave\, Angular Momentum\, and Supertranslation Ambiguity\n\nAbstract: The supertranslation ambiguity of angular momentum is a long-standing and conceptually important issue in general relativity. Recently\, there appeared the first definition of angular momentum at null infinity that is supertranslation invariant. However\, in the compact binary coalescence community\, supertranslation ambiguity is often ignored. We have shown that\, in the linearised theory of gravitational wave\, the new angular momentum coincides with the classical definition at the quadrupole level. This talk is based on a recent joint work with Xiaokai He and Xiaoning Wu.
