Geometry of Generic Isolated Horizons
read the original abstract
Geometrical structures intrinsic to non-expanding, weakly isolated and isolated horizons are analyzed and compared with structures which arise in other contexts within general relativity, e.g., at null infinity. In particular, we address in detail the issue of singling out the preferred normals to these horizons required in various applications. This work provides powerful tools to extract invariant, physical information from numerical simulations of the near horizon, strong field geometry. While it complements the previous analysis of laws governing the mechanics of weakly isolated horizons, prior knowledge of those results is not assumed.

Thermodynamics of dynamical black holes beyond perturbation theory
The authors derive non-perturbative first and second laws for dynamical black holes, identifying entropy with the area of local marginally trapped surfaces rather than the global event horizon.

Horizon Multipole Moments of a Kerr Black Hole
Horizon multipole moments of a Kerr black hole are computed in closed form from two definitions, yielding different values for l >= 1 at nonzero spin and sharing parity and small-spin scaling with field multipoles.

Entanglement Entropy and Thermodynamics of Dynamical Black Holes
In f(R) theories, the replica-method gravitational entropy computed on the apparent horizon matches the Hollands-Wald-Zhang dynamical black hole entropy and satisfies the first law, while the event horizon does not; t...
