Perturbations of Kerr spacetime are typically studied with the Teukolsky formalism, in which a pair of invariant components of the perturbed Weyl tensor are expressed in terms of separable modes that satisfy ordinary differential equations. However, for certain applications it is desirable to construct the full metric perturbation in the Lorenz gauge, in which the linearized Einstein field equations take a manifestly hyperbolic form. Here we obtain a set of Lorenz-gauge solutions to the vacuum field equations in terms of homogeneous solutions to the spin-2, spin-1 and spin-0 Teukolsky equations; and completion pieces that represent perturbations to the mass and angular momentum of the spacetime. The solutions are valid in vacuum Petrov type-D spacetimes that admit a conformal Killing-Yano tensor.

  1. Metric reconstruction and the Hamiltonian for eccentric, precessing binaries in the small-mass-ratio limit

    gr-qc 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    First-order metric perturbations and the generalized redshift invariant are computed for eccentric, precessing orbits in Kerr spacetime using four metric reconstruction methods, with open-source code provided.

  2. Extreme mass-ratio inspiral within an ultralight scalar cloud I. Scalar radiation

    gr-qc 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Scalar radiation from an EMRI in an ultralight scalar cloud is computed semi-analytically, showing dipole clouds decelerate and quadrupole clouds accelerate the inspiral, with up to about 100 rad dephasing after 18 months.
