We study Einstein gravity minimally coupled to a scalar field in a static, spherically symmetric space-time in four dimensions. Black hole solutions are shown to exist for a phantom scalar field whose kinetic energy is negative. These…
We study Einstein gravity coupled to a massless scalar field in a static spherically symmetric space-time in four dimensions. Black hole solutions exist when the kinetic energy of the scalar field is negative, that is, for a phantom field.…
We clarify some issues related to the evaluation of the mean value of the energy-momentum tensor for quantum scalar fields coupled to the dilaton field in two-dimensional gravity. Because of this coupling, the energy-momentum tensor for the…
A new two-dimensional black hole model, based on the "R=T" relativistic theory, is introduced, and the quantum massless scalar field is studied in its classical gravitational field. In particular infrared questions are discussed. The…
We explore how far one can go in constructing $d$-dimensional static black holes coupled to $p$-form and scalar fields before actually specifying the gravity and electrodynamics theory one wants to solve. At the same time, we study to what…
We discuss quantum inequalities for minimally coupled scalar fields in static spacetimes. These are inequalities which place limits on the magnitude and duration of negative energy densities. We derive a general expression for the quantum…
We investigate the gravitational quasi-normal modes (QNMs) for a type of regular black hole (BH) known as phantom BH, which is a static self-gravitating solution of a minimally coupled phantom scalar field with a potential. The studies are…
We consider the behaviour of a quantum scalar field on three-dimensional Euclidean backgrounds: Anti-de Sitter space, the regular BTZ black hole instanton and the BTZ instanton with a conical singularity at the horizon. The corresponding…
In this paper I examine black hole and cosmological space-times in Born-Infeld-Einstein theory with electric and magnetic charges. The field equations are derived and written in the form $G_{\mu\nu}=-\kappa T_{\mu\nu}$ for spherically…
We consider a Reissner-Nordstr\"om black hole formed by the collapse of a charged null shell. The renormalised expectation values of the energy momentum tensor operator for a massless scalar field propagating in the 2D section of this…
The energy-momentum tensor for a massless conformally coupled scalar field in the region between two curved boundaries in $k=-1$ static Robertson--Walker spacetime is investigated. We assume that the scalar field satisfies the Dirichlet…
We calculate the entropy of a scalar field in a rotating black hole in 2 + 1 dimension. In the Hartle-Hawking state the entropy is proportional to the horizon area, but diverges linearly in $\sqrt{h}$, where $h$ is the radial cut-off. In…
We present a time-dependent and spatially inhomogeneous solution that interpolates the extremal Reissner-Nordstr\"om (RN) black hole and the Friedmann-Lema\^itre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) universe with arbitrary power-law expansion. It is an…
We study non-minimal quantum fields in the gravitational field of 2-dimensional dilaton black holes and the de Sitter spacetime. We found that the Green functions for non-minimal massless fields in a particular class of dilaton black holes…
It is shown that for small, spherically symmetric perturbations of asymptotically flat two-ended Reissner-Nordstr\"om data for the Einstein-Maxwell-real scalar field system, the boundary of the dynamic spacetime which evolves is globally…
Recent works suggest that quantum theory may support a unification of the notions of space and time, thus treating the spatial and temporal quantum correlations equally. Specifically, the partial transposition of the maximally entangled…
We employ the recently proposed formalism of the "horizon wave-function" to investigate the emergence of a horizon in models of black holes as Bose-Einstein condensates of gravitons. We start from the Klein-Gordon equation for a massless…
