Numerical relativity for Horndeski gravity
read the original abstract
We present an overview of recent developments in the numerical solution of Horndeski gravity theories, which are the class of all scalar-tensor theories of gravity that have second order equations of motion. We review several methods that have been used to establish well-posed initial value problems for these theories, and discuss well-posed formulations of the constraint equations. We also discuss global aspects of exact, strongly coupled solutions to some of Horndeski gravity theories: the formation of shocks, the loss of hyperbolicity, and the formation of naked curvature singularities. Finally we discuss numerical solutions to binary black hole and neutron star systems for several Horndeski theories.

A parity selection rule for regular black holes
Spherically symmetric gravity theories can carry generic matter through a regular center only if their defining functions have GR-like parity (α even, β odd in r), equivalent at the metric level to f(−r,−M)=f(r,M); Ha...

Scalar memory from compact binary coalescences
In Ricci-coupled scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity, the change in scalar charge during binary black hole mergers generates a scalar memory contribution that modifies the total memory signal on observable timescales.

Black hole mergers beyond general relativity: a self-force approach
Self-force theory is extended to compute merger and ringdown waveforms in beyond-GR black hole binaries under the extreme mass-ratio approximation, with first calculations of self-force corrections to the merger waveform.

Towards long and accurate numerical relativity waveforms of binary black holes beyond general relativity
Spectral methods plus comoving fixing-the-equations drivers yield 40+ cycle equal-mass sGB binary waveforms with phase error ≲1 rad, distinguishable from GR and merging earlier.

Higher-derivative gravitational effective field theories are generically weakly hyperbolic
Any pure-metric higher-derivative gravity EFT with derivative-independent characteristics has a weakly hyperbolic physical spin-2 block that gauge fixing and constraint addition cannot remove.

Scalarization and descalarization in hyperbolic encounters of black holes
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.

Scalar memory from compact binary coalescences
Binary black hole mergers in Ricci-coupled scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity produce an observable scalar breathing memory signal from the merger-driven change in scalar charge, potentially matching the size of the theory's...
