abstract
Many numerical codes now under development to solve Einstein's equations of general relativity in 3+1 dimensional spacetimes employ the standard ADM form of the field equations. This form involves evolution equations for the raw spatial metric and extrinsic curvature tensors. Following Shibata and Nakamura, we modify these equations by factoring out the conformal factor and introducing three ``connection functions''. The evolution equations can then be reduced to wave equations for the conformal metric components, which are coupled to evolution equations for the connection functions. We evolve small amplitude gravitational waves and make a direct comparison of the numerical performance of the modified equations with the standard ADM equations. We find that the modified form exhibits much improved stability.

The linearized 3+1 TEGR system has imaginary eigenvalues in its principal symbol but becomes strongly hyperbolic after gauge fixing isolated problematic sectors.
Numerical simulations of equal-mass boson-star mergers reveal larger waveform deviations from black-hole binaries in late inspiral and merger, plus odd multipole excitations for certain scalar-field phases, with some signals degenerate until IMR consistency tests are applied.
Numerical relativity in the decoupling limit reveals dynamical scalarization and spin-induced (de)scalarization during hyperbolic black hole encounters for both signs of the coupling.
High-resolution GR neutrino-radiation MHD simulation of 1.35-1.35 Msun BNS merger shows KHI-driven B-field amplification to magnetar levels (~10^50 erg, factor >=316) in 3 ms post-merger.
Numerical relativity simulations of triple black hole systems reveal redshift effects and gravitational lensing in ringdown signals from head-on mergers, with no additional black hole formation from amplified waves.
A one-body conformal-factor correction stabilizes boson star-black hole initial data, enabling gravitational-wave analysis that shows higher multipoles can discriminate mixed mergers from pure black-hole binaries.
Simulations with Nakamura wave initial data confirm approximately discretely self-similar threshold solutions in vacuum gravitational wave collapse, but without exact self-similarity or a unique critical solution, consistent with prior studies.
Fits to numerical relativity data indicate that leading-order post-Newtonian dependence on mass ratio persists in several modes of binary black hole mergers through the merger, while low-degree polynomials capture deviations in higher modes.
Numerical simulations of black hole-boson star binaries show that scalar self-interactions can suppress tidal disruption while radiative efficiency depends on the chosen potential.
A grid-based multi-grid Poisson solver is implemented in numerical relativity, tested on puncture black holes and neutron stars, and used in a neutrino-radiation hydrodynamics simulation of 9 solar mass star collapse up to core bounce with high conservation accuracy.
Boson stars are particle-like solutions in general relativity that model dark matter, black hole mimickers, and binary systems.
