Geometrical properties of spacetime are difficult to study in nonperturbative approaches to quantum gravity like Causal Dynamical Triangulations (CDT), where one uses simplicial manifolds to define the gravitational path integral, instead…

The objectivity of black hole entropy is discussed in the particular case of a Schwarzchild black hole. Using Jaynes' maximum entropy formalism and Euclidean path integral evaluation of partition function, it is argued that in the…

We perform numerical simulations of the gravitational collapse of a spherically symmetric scalar field. For those data that just barely do not form black holes we find the maximum curvature at the position of the central observer. We find a…

The basic and conceptual notion of this work starts from the recent investigations of Marios Christodoulou and Carlo Rovelli (CR) in their paper entitled ''How big is a black hole?''. This work is related to the black hole interior volume…

We consider the contribution to the entropy from fields in the background of a curved time-independent metric. To account for the curvature of space, we postulate a position-dependent UV cutoff. We argue that a UV cutoff on energy naturally…

We study the gravitational collapse of a self-gravitating charged scalar-field. Starting with a regular spacetime, we follow the evolution through the formation of an apparent horizon, a Cauchy horizon and a final central singularity. We…

In this work a static spherically symmetric black hole's solution within the Einstein-Maxwell-Yang-Mills-dilaton theory is derived. The obtained solution is examined, in particular, we have calculated the Kretschmann scalar which allowed us…

It has been recently shown in [Phys. Rev. Lett. 125 (2020) 041302] that microstate counting carried out for quantum states residing on the horizon of a black hole leads to a correction of the form $\exp(-A/4l_p^2)$ in the Bekenstein-Hawking…

We study extreme mass ratio inspirals occurring in modified gravity, for which the system is modeled by a small compact object with scalar charge spiraling into a supermassive Kerr black hole. Besides the tensorial gravitational waves…

Massive scalar charges are ubiquitous in extensions to General Relativity and the Standard Model in particle physics. We describe spectral methods which can accurately construct the spacetime of rotating black holes with dimensionless spin…

We study the spherically symmetric collapse of a real, minimally coupled, massive scalar field in an asymptotically Einstein-de Sitter spacetime background. By means of an eikonal approximation for the field and metric functions, we obtain…

The entropy of a Schwarzschild black hole, as computed via the semiclassical Euclidean path integral in a stationary phase approximation, is determined not by the on-shell value of the action (which vanishes), but by the…

Entropy plays a crucial role in characterization of information and entanglement, but it is not a scalar quantity and for many systems it is different for different relativistic observers. Loop quantum gravity predicts the…

We present a new approach for setting initial Cauchy data for multiple black hole spacetimes. The method is based upon adopting an initially Kerr-Schild form of the metric. In the case of non-spinning holes, the constraint equations take a…

Does circumventing the curvature singularity of the Kerr black hole affects the timescale of the scalar cloud formation around it? By definition, the scalar cloud, forms a gravitational atom with hydrogen-like bound states, lying on the…

In a scalar-vector-gravity theory with the vector sector described by nonlinear electrodynamics, the field equations are integrated using the well-known gravitational decoupling method. The resulting spacetime corresponds to a spherically…

A new version of the geometry inside a black hole is proposed, on the grounds of an idea given by Doran et al. The spacetime is still time dependent and is a solution of Einstein's equations with a stress tensor corresponding to an…

The cosmological constant if considered as a fundamental constant, provides an information treatment for gravitation problems, both cosmological and of black holes. The efficiency of that approach is shown via gedanken experiments for the…
