In this paper we study geodesic motion around a distorted Schwarzschild black hole. We consider both timelike and null geodesics which are confined to the black hole's equatorial plane. Such geodesics generically exist if the distortion…
We study the existence and stability of spherical membranes in curved spacetimes. For Dirac membranes in the Schwarzschild--de Sitter background we find that there exists an equilibrium solution. By fine--tuning the dimensionless parameter…

The horizonless configuration of regular black holes has recently attracted attention as a model for ultracompact stars. In this paper, we propose a new class of regular black hole models sourced by a de Sitter vacuum with a finite radius.…

We study the quasi-periodic oscillations from the accretion disk around the distorted Schwarzschild black hole in the framework of the resonant models. We confine ourselves to the case of a quadrupole distortion which can be caused for…
One of the very small number of serious alternatives to the usual concept of an astrophysical black hole is the "gravastar" model developed by Mazur and Mottola; and a related phase-transition model due to Laughlin et al. We consider a…
In spherical symmetry, solutions of the semiclassical Einstein equations belong to one of two possible classes. Both classes contain solutions that -- depending on the dynamic behavior of the horizon -- describe evaporating physical black…
We construct a gravastar configuration within the Shtanov-Sahni (SS) braneworld scenario, characterized by a timelike extra dimension and negative brane tension. Unlike classical black holes, which inevitably culminate in central curvature…
Gravastar models have recently been proposed as an alternative to black holes, mainly to avoid the pro\-ble\-ma\-tic issues associated with event horizons and singularities. In this work, a regular variety of gravastar models within the…
A system of two gravitating bodies floating around a restricted region of strong gravitational field is investigated. We consider two concentric spherically symmetric timelike shells spatially constrained by a perfectly reflecting inner and…
There is increasing numerical evidence that scalar fields can form long-lived quasi-bound states around black holes. Recent perturbative and numerical relativity calculations have provided further confirmation in a variety of physical…
In case of spherical symmetry, the assumptions of finite-time formation of a trapped region and regularity of its boundary --- the apparent horizon --- are sufficient to identify the form of the metric and energy-momentum tensor in its…
We study the formation and stability of regular black holes by employing a thin shell approximation to the dynamics of collapsing magnetic monopoles. The core deSitter region of the monopole is matched across the shell to a…
We study non-linearly the gravitational instabilities of Reissner-Nordstrom-de Sitter and Gauss-Bonnet-de Sitter black holes by using the large $D$ expansion method. In both cases, the thresholds of the instability are found to be…
We develop a Birman-Schwinger principle for the spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat Einstein-Vlasov system. It characterizes stability properties of steady states such as the positive definiteness of an Antonov-type operator or the…
As is well-known, asymptotically flat, static and spherically symmetric black holes do not admit stable bound orbits of massive/massless particles outside the horizon in higher-dimensional Einstein gravity. However, for massive particles,…

We consider the motion of massive and massless particles in a five-dimensional spacetime with a compactified extra-dimensional space where a black hole is localized, i.e., a caged black hole spacetime. We show the existence of circular…
