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, most 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.

  1. Einstein-aether Elliptic Charges and the First Law of Asymptotically AdS Black Holes

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Einstein-aether theory admits an elliptic charge arising from a symmetry of the reduced action that explains the misalignment contribution to the first law for asymptotically AdS universal horizons.
