To make a Born-Infeld (BI) black hole thermally stable, we consider two types of boundary conditions, i.e., the asymptotically anti-de Sitter (AdS) space and a Dirichlet wall placed in the asymptotically flat space. The phase structures and…

The Anti-de Sitter (AdS) black hole with lattice structure plays an essential role in the study of the optical conductivity in holographic approach. We investigate the instability of this sort of black holes which may lead to the…

$Q$-stars are a class of boson stars arising in scalar-field theories with interacting potentials, minimally coupled to gravity. We show that, in certain regions of parameter space, the angular velocity of stable timelike circular geodesics…
We show that minimal boson stars, i.e. boson stars made out of scalar fields without self-interaction, are always classically unstable in 5 space-time dimensions. This is true for the non-rotating as well as rotating case with two equal…

Spinning bosonic stars (SBSs) can form from the gravitational collapse of a dilute cloud of scalar/Proca particles with non-zero angular momentum. In a recent work we found that the scalar stars are transient due to a non-axisymmetric…
We study fermion pairing and condensation towards an ordered state in strongly coupled quantum critical systems with a holographic AdS/CFT dual. On the gravity side this is modeled by a system of charged fermion interacting through a BCS…
Myers-Perry black holes with a single spin in d>5 have been shown to be unstable if rotating sufficiently rapidly. We extend the numerical analysis which allowed for that result to the asymptotically AdS case. We determine numerically the…
Low-energy thermal equilibrium states of strongly coupled ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theory on a three-sphere are unstable with respect to fluctuations breaking the global $SO(6)$ R-symmetry. Using the gauge theory/gravity…
We study numerical evolutions of an initial cloud of self-gravitating bosonic dark matter with finite angular momentum and self-interaction in kinetic regime. It is demonstrated that such a system can undergo gravitational condensation and…
We study the stability of static, hyperbolic Gauss-Bonnet black holes in (4+1)-dimensional Anti-de-Sitter (AdS) space-time against the formation of scalar hair. Close to extremality the black holes possess a near-horizon topology of AdS_2 x…
