Study shows instability in exotic compact objects with evanescent ergosurfaces.
The intrinsic geometry of the Kerr ergosurface on constant Boyer-Lindquist (BL), Kerr, and Doran time slices is characterized. Unlike the BL slice, which had been previously studied, the other slices (i) do not have conical singularities at the poles (except the Doran slice in the extremal limit), (ii) have finite pola…
For germs of subanalytic sets, we define two finite sequences of new numerical invariants. The first one is obtained by localizing the classical Lipschitz-Killing curvatures, the second one is the real analogue of the evanescent characteristics introduced by M. Kashiwara. We show that each invariant of one sequence is …
The point of the paper is to show some limitations of geometrical optics in the analysis of subwavelength focusing. We analyze the resolution of the image of a line source radiating in the Maxwell fisheye and the Veselago-Pendry slab lens. The former optical medium is deduced from the stereographic projection of a virt…
