Weyl metrics and their generalizations: classical and quantum viewpoint

In this thesis, we study two distinct topics both connected to stationary axially sym- metric spacetimes. The first is a study of an exact solution sourced by phantom scalar field. This solution can be derived from the well-known Curzon-Chazy metric and has several unusual features. It is a spherically symmetric wormhole which is however not symmetric with respect to its throat, it possesses a non-scalar curvature singularity and functions as a one-directional time machine. The energy content of the spacetime is ex- amined and various other properties are discussed. The remaining parts are dedicated to extreme mass ratio inspirals in two stationary axially symmetric spacetimes, perturbed Schwarzschild and Kerr. The canonical perturbation theory was used to transform the respective geodesic Hamiltonian to action-angle coordinates allowing us to evolve flux- driven inspirals in both spacetimes. 1
Space-times of ring sources

Marginally outer-trapped surfaces (MOTSs) are found for a family of space-like hypersurfaces described by the Brill-Lindquist initial data. These hypersurfaces contain a singular ring characterized by its radius, mass and charge. Due to the ring character of the singularity, these surfaces are natural candidates for MOTSs with toroidal topology. By adjusting and employing the numerical method of geodesics, we indeed localize MOTSs of both spherical and toroidal topology, and compare the results with those obtained previously by Jaramillo & Lousto.
