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…
We show that a generic relativistic membrane with in-plane pressure and surface density having the same sign is unstable with respect to a series of warping mode instabilities with high wave numbers. We also examine the criteria of…
Within the paradigm of non-perturbative Einstein gravity we study continuous curvature manifolds which possess de Sitter interiors and Kerr exteriors. These manifolds could represent the spacetime of rotating gravastars or other similar…
We consider a way to avoid black hole singularities by gluing a black hole exterior to an interior with a tube-like geometry consisting of a direct product of two-dimensional AdS, dS, or Rindler spacetime with a two-sphere of constant…
This study investigates the gravastars in the framemwork of Rastall theory of gravity in generalised cylindrically symmetric space-time. Following the Mazur-Mottola hypothesis (P. O. Mazur and E. Mottola, Universe {\bf 9}, 88 (2023)),…
We study the existence and radial stability of static, spherically symmetric thin shells separating two Schwarzschild--de Sitter spacetimes with parameters $(m_\pm,\Lambda_\pm)$. Using the Israel junction formalism and a linear barotropic…

We show that there exist steady states of the massless Einstein-Vlasov system which surround a Schwarzschild black hole. The steady states are (thick) shells with finite mass and compact support. Furthermore we prove that an arbitrary…
We consider the gravastar model where the vacuum phase transition between the de Sitter interior and the Schwarzschild or Schwarzschild-de Sitter exterior geometries takes place at a single spherical delta-shell. We derive sharp analytic…
We explore the classical stability of topological black holes in d-dimensional anti-de Sitter spacetime, where the horizon is an Einstein manifold of negative curvature. According to the gauge invariant formalism of Ishibashi and Kodama,…

In this paper, we analyze a few physical characteristics of gravastar with cylindrical geometry in $f(R,T)$ theory, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar and $T$ is the trace of energy-momentum tensor. The gravastar is generally considered to be a…
We study black hole solutions of Einstein gravity coupled to a specific global symmetry breaking Goldstone model described by an O(3) isovector scalar field in four spacetime dimensions. Our configurations are static and spherically…
We review recent works on the possibility for eternal existence of thin-shell wormholes on Einstein and Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We introduce thin-shell wormholes that are categorized into a class of traversable wormhole solutions.…
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,…
In this work, we analyze the observational properties of thin-shell gravastars under two astrophysical frameworks, namely surrounded by optically-thin accretion disks and orbited by hot-spots. We consider the thin-shell gravastar model with…
In this work, we investigate gravastar-like structures in static and spherically symmetric space-time within the framework of $f(Q)$ gravity coupled with conformal symmetry. We have modified the conventional gravastar model by introducing a…
