General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology
We prove the weak cosmic censorship conjecture in $2+1$ spacetime dimensions for the circularly symmetric Einstein-scalar field system in the presence of a negative cosmological constant $\Lambda<0$. More precisely, we show that for any…
In this work, we investigate the feasibility of using ringdown waveforms from supermassive black holes immersed in dark-matter halos to extract both the intrinsic black-hole parameters and those characterizing the surrounding matter…
A central open problem in quantum gravity is to understand how continuum spacetime emerges from quantum-geometric degrees of freedom in a background-independent setting. A many-body perspective suggests that spacetime emerges as a…
We analyse two static spacetimes, recently generated from a Schwarzschild--Bertotti--Robinson electrovacuum seed through distinct symmetry transformations. The electromagnetic field of the transformed solutions can be set to zero and both…
We study the relation between geodesic completeness, the averaged null energy condition (ANEC), and spatial curvature in Friedmann--Robertson--Walker (FRW) cosmology within classical general relativity. Using the affinely parameterized ANEC…
Proca and Maxwell fields in $d$-dimensional Schwarzschild black holes with anti-de Sitter (AdS) asymptotics are investigated through their linear perturbations and associated quasinormal modes (QNMs) with Dirichlet boundary conditions at…
In this paper, we investigate the Holographic Dark Energy (HDE) model and its entropy-corrected versions, namely the Power Law and Logarithmic entropy corrected HDE models, by considering the infrared cut-off $L=\mathcal{G}^{-1/4}$, where…
Black hole physics currently lacks a fully coherent understanding of the black hole mass (density), entropy, and interior (non-)singularity. These concepts are related to the black hole radius, area (of the horizon), and volume (within the…
We investigate the observable signatures -- the shadow, the throat silhouette, and the image of a thin accretion disk -- for a family of static, spherically symmetric wormholes with an arbitrary throat profile. First, we derive expressions…
Recent cosmological tests have discovered a fresh new set of anomalies in the large-scale isotropy of the universe. Motivated thus by the numerous pieces of evidence for large-scale cosmic isotropy violation with the advent of the…
We investigate the quasinormal modes of massless scalar and electromagnetic perturbations in charged Euler--Heisenberg black holes surrounded by perfect fluid dark matter. The quasinormal frequencies are calculated using the asymptotic…
Rigidity conditions for a body considered as a discrete system of relativistic particles are proposed. They by themselves do not yet determine an evolution of the system, and some second-order equations must be added to them.…
An important question in binary black hole mergers is to connect properties of the remnant black hole to those of the two initial black holes. These properties include not only the final mass and spin of the remnant, but also higher…
We construct static, spherically symmetric black hole solutions in quasi-topological gravity (QTG) coupled to Born-Infeld nonlinear electrodynamics. Starting from the spherically reduced action, we derive closed-form expressions for the…
We study how quasinormal-mode frequencies may encode information about the effective matter source responsible for black-hole hair. Using the established eikonal correspondence between quasinormal modes and unstable null geodesics, we…
In this work, we obtain analytical solutions for a $(3+1)$-dimensional black string and a $(2+1)$-dimensional black hole, both sourced by the Dekel-Zhao dark matter (DM) density profile. Our results indicate that the event horizon radius is…
We investigate the superradiant instability of Ay\'on-Beato-Garc\'ia-de Sitter (ABG-dS) black holes under massless charged scalar perturbations using both time-domain evolutions and frequency-domain computations. We show that the…
We propose an exceptional-point (EP) framework for black-hole ringdown beyond the standard quasinormal-mode (QNM) paradigm. It provides a first-principles characterization of the resonance associated with avoided crossings near EPs, an…
Einstein-Kalb-Ramond (EKR) gravity is an alternative theory in which a rank-two antisymmetric tensor field, the Kalb-Ramond field, is nonminimally coupled to gravity, potentially generating Lorentz-violating backgrounds. In this work, we…
Using a nested sampling analysis, we study the gravitational-wave background (GWB) predicted by the Gasperini--Veneziano model of pre-big-bang cosmology, both in its most recent minimal and non-minimal versions. Within the LISA sensitivity…
