Modelling of gravitational waves from binary black hole inspiral has played an important role in the recent observations of such signals. The late-stage ringdown phase of the gravitational waveform is often associated with the null particle…
The double-Kerr solution is generated using both a Backlund transformation and the Belinskii-Zakharov inverse-scattering technique. We build a dictionary between the parametrisations naturally obtained in the two methods and show their…
We construct a supersymmetric rotating black hole with asymptotically flat four-dimensional spacetime times a circle, by superposing an infinite number of BMPV black hole solutions at the same distance in one direction. The near horizon…
Nonrotating and rotating black hole soltuions in (2+1) dimensions are studied in a model including a real scalar field with a simple potential coupled to gravity.
We derive and discuss black-hole solutions to the gravitating O(3) $\sigma$ model in (2+1) dimensions. Three different kinds of static black holes are found. One of these resembles the static BTZ black hole, another is completely free of…
We propose a general framework for the study of asymptotically flat black objects with $k+1$ equal magnitude angular momenta in $d\geq 5$ spacetime dimensions (with $0\leq k\leq \big[\frac{d-5}{2} \big]$). In this approach, the dependence…
We construct a new class of asymptotically flat black hole solutions in Einstein-Yang-Mills and Einstein-Yang-Mills-dilaton theory. These black hole solutions are static, and they have a regular event horizon. However, they possess only…
We demonstrate that five-dimensional, asymptotically flat, stationary and biaxisymmetric, vacuum black holes with lens space $L(n, 1)$ topology, possessing the simplest rod structure, do not exist. In particular, we show that the general…
The $SL(2, R)/Z$ WZW orbifold describes the (2+1)-dimensional black hole which approaches anti-de~Sitter space asymptotically. We study the $1 \rightarrow 1$ tachyon scattering off the rotating black hole background and calculate the…
We present a new non-BPS solution describing an asymptotically flat, stationary, bi-axisymmetric capped black hole in the bosonic sector of five-dimensional minimal supergravity. This solution describes a spherical black hole, while the…
We present a solution for rotating black holes in massive gravity. We first give a solution of massive gravity with one dynamical metric. Both metrics of this solution are expressed in the advanced Eddington-Finkelstein-like coordinates:…
The existence of light rings in a spacetime is closely related to the existence of black hole horizons and observables such as the ringdown and the shadow. Black holes, compared to nonvacuum ultracompact objects, have rather unique…
The inverse scattering method is applied to the investigation of the equilibrium configuration of black holes. A study of the boundary problem corresponding to this configuration shows that any axially symmetric, stationary solution of the…
For an uncharged test particle in the Kerr-Bertotti-Robinson spacetime, solutions of two major types of orbits are presented, both in exact forms. First, for both prograde and retrograde motions, the radii of innermost stable circular…
We derive static spherically symmetric regular black holes as vacuum solutions to purely gravitational theories in four dimensions. To that end, we construct four-dimensional non-polynomial gravities starting from subclasses of…
We investigate the solution-generating technique based on the Breitenlohner-Maison (BM) linear system, for asymptotically flat, stationary, bi-axisymmetric black hole solutions with various horizon topologies in five-dimensional vacuum…
General Relativity minimally coupled to a massive, free, complex scalar field, is shown to allow asymptotically flat solutions, non-singular on and outside the event horizon, describing two spinning black holes (2sBHs) in equilibrium, with…
We investigate possible configurations for vacuum multi-black holes that maintain static equilibrium in expanding bubbles. Our analysis assumes a five-dimensional Weyl metric to describe the spacetime, facilitating the derivation of…
Configurations of multiple concentric black rings play an important role in determining the pattern of branchings, connections and mergers between different phases of higher-dimensional black holes. We examine them using both approximate…
The asymptotically flat, electrically charged, rotating black holes (BHs) in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton (EMd) theory are known in closed form for \textit{only} two particular values of the dilaton coupling constant $\gamma$: the…
