We obtain a new class of rotating black holes for Einstein theory with perfect fluid source in (2+1) dimensions. We conclude that these black hole solutions only depend on variable angular velocity $m(r)$. Some examples of these black holes…
Starting from a metric Ansatz permitting a weak version of Birkhoff's theorem we find static black hole solutions including matter in the form of free scalar and p-form fields, with and without a cosmological constant \Lambda. Single p-form…
Static solutions of the Einstein-Yang-Mills-Higgs system containing extreme black holes are studied. The field equations imply strong restrictions on boundary values of all fields at the horizon. If the Yang-Mills radial electric field $E$…

The horizon is a classical concept that arises in general relativity, and is therefore not clearly defined when the source cannot be reliably described by classical physics. To any (sufficiently) localised quantum mechanical wave-function,…
We consider a 5-dimensional action which is composed of a gravitational sector and a sector of matter, where the gravitational sector is given by a Einstein-Chern-Simons gravity action instead of the Einstein-Hilbert action. We obtain the…
To ask a question about a black hole in quantum gravity, one must restrict initial or boundary data to ensure that a black hole is actually present. For two-dimensional dilaton gravity, and probably a much wider class of theories as well,…
The electrogravity transformation is applied to the three-dimensional Einstein field equations to obtain new multi-parameter families of black hole solutions. The Ba\~{n}ados-Teitelboim-Zanelli black hole is shown to be a special case of…
Exact solutions to the Einstein field equations may be generated from already existing ones (seed solutions), that admit at least one Killing vector. In this framework, a space of potentials is introduced. By the use of symmetries in this…

Mass inflation is a phenomenon happened in the vicinity of inner horizon in two-horizon spacetime. It is shown that the mass of initially small perturbations will grow exponentially as they approach the inner horizon. This implies that…
