The Kerr geometry admits the Carter symmetry, which ensures that the geodesic equations are integrable. It is shown that gravitational waveforms associated with extreme-mass-ratio inspirals involving a non-integrable compact object display `glitch' phenomena, where the frequencies of gravitational waves increase abruptly, when the orbit crosses certain spacetime regions known as Birkhoff islands. The presence or absence of these features in data from upcoming space-borne detectors will therefore allow not only for tests of general relativity, but also of fundamental spacetime symmetries.

  1. Quadrupolar tidal effects destroy the integrability of black hole geodesics: analytic proof and numerical evidence of chaos

    gr-qc 2026-07 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    Leading-order tidally induced quadrupoles destroy Kerr geodesic integrability: no polynomial deformation of the Carter constant is conserved for generic Love couplings and Kerr spin.

    gr-qc 2026-01 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Quadratic-in-spin MPTD dynamics in type-D Einstein spacetimes with Killing–Yano symmetry admits five commuting first integrals—hence Liouville–Arnold integrability—only when the spin-induced quadrupole deformability p...

  3. Resonant interactions from dynamical perturbers on generic orbits around an extreme mass ratio inspiral

    gr-qc 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A numerical scan of 141,130 third-body resonances in EMRI systems finds no action changes above 1% but some waveform phase shifts near 0.1 radian.

  4. Chaotic orbital dynamics of pulsating stars around black holes surrounded by dark matter halos

    gr-qc 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Spherically symmetric pulsations trigger homoclinic chaos in orbits around black holes enclosed by dark matter halos, unlike the vacuum Schwarzschild case.

  5. Mutual Information for particle pair and its application to diagnose Chaos in Curved Spacetime

    gr-qc 2024-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Mutual information between two nearby particle trajectories distinguishes regular from chaotic orbits in Schwarzschild and Kerr spacetimes, matching the fast Lyapunov indicator.
