My PhD thesis.
Academic work
On energy bounds in asymptotically locally AdS spacetimes
27 August 2025
I prove positive energy theorems and BPS inequalities on a class of asymptotically, locally AdS spacetimes. The link below goes to a PDF of the published version, while the link above also contains the arXiv version, some additional information and some extended notes.
Spinorial quasilocal mass for spacetimes with negative cosmological constant
17 April 2025
I define a new notion of quasilocal mass for spacetimes with negative cosmological constant. The link below contains the arXiv PDF, while the link above also contains additional information and some extended notes.
Static black hole uniqueness theorems
31 August 2023
A report I wrote for my PhD as a 1st year progress update. Chapter 5 contains original, unpublished work, while the preceding chapters review famous results in the history of static black hole uniqueness theorems.
Connections on fibre bundles
30 April 2022
I provide a (currently slightly incomplete) pedagogical discussion of connections on differentiable fibre bundles.
Higher symmetries of relativistic wave equations in curved spacetime
21 May 2021
The dissertation I wrote for my master’s at UWA.
A primer on spinors
24 March 2021
I provide a general overview of spinors from the point of view of Clifford algebras.
Strictly MDAR-following galaxies
25 May 2019
This is work I did for the UWA unit, PHYS3003, and is also a follow-up to my International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR) studentship report. Although it’s typset in the MNRAS template, the work was never submitted for publication. Furthermore, the fact my ICRAR supervisor’s name, Gerhardt Meurer, doesn’t appear in the author list should not be seen as a claim to sole ownership, merely a reflection that I submitted it for one of my assignments.
The constant stability disk model
15 February 2019
This was the final report I submitted for my International Centre for Radio Astronomy (ICRAR) studentship under the supervision of Gerhardt Meurer.
