We study Einstein gravity coupled to a massless scalar field in a static spherically symmetric space-time in four dimensions. Black hole solutions exist when the kinetic energy of the scalar field is negative, that is, for a phantom field.…
Motivated by the recent interest in quantization of black hole area spectrum, we consider the area spectrum of Schwarzschild, BTZ, extremal Reissner-Nordstr\"om, near extremal Schwarzschild-de Sitter, and Kerr black holes. Based on the…

In 1984, 't Hooft famously used a brickwall (aka stretched horizon) to compute black hole entropy up to a numerical pre-factor. This calculation is sometimes interpreted as due to the entanglement of the modes across the horizon, but more…

We consider static circularly symmetric solution of three-dimensional Einstein's equations with negative cosmological constant (the BTZ black hole). The case of zero cosmological constant corresponding to the interior region of a black hole…
In this paper, a massive scalar field non-minimally coupled with gravity is considered. Assuming a regular and spherically symmetric background, specifically a regular black hole solution, the energy-momentum tensor is calculated. Using the…
Scalar, vector and tensor perturbations on the Kerr spacetime are governed by equations that can be solved by separation of variables, but the same is not true in generic stationary and axisymmetric geometries. This complicates the…
One considers phase-space noncommutativity in the context of a Kantowski-Sachs cosmological model to study the interior of a Schwarzschild black hole. It is shown that the potential function of the corresponding quantum cosmology problem…
The exact decay rate for emission of massless minimally coupled scalar fields by a non-extremal black hole in 2+1 dimensions is obtained. At low energy, the decay rate into scalars with zero angular momentum is correctly reproduced within…

In this article, we demonstrate how black hole quasi-normal modes can emerge from a Dirichlet brickwall model normal modes. We consider a probe scalar field in a BTZ geometry with a Dirichlet brickwall and demonstrate that as the wall…
We study the stability of the BTZ black hole in the new massive gravity. This is a nontrivial task because the linearized equation around the BTZ black hole background is a fourth order differential equation. Away from the critical point of…
We study the quasi-normal modes (QNMs) of static, spherically symmetric black holes in $f(R)$ theories. We show how these modes in theories with non-trivial $f(R)$ are fundamentally different from those in General Relativity. In the special…
