We employ a late-time expansion to study the interior of rotating black holes coupled to a massless scalar field in asymptotically flat spacetime. We find that decaying fluxes of scalar radiation into the black hole necessitate the…
We study systems in $2+1$ dimensions consisting of defects that source an electric charge, or a magnetic flux, of a $U(1)$ field, and we use holography to compute their effects on quantum conformal fields. We can also hide the defects…
The entropy of a black hole can differ from a quarter of the area of the horizon because of quantum corrections. The correction is related to the contribution to the Euclidean functional integral from quantum fluctuations but is not simply…
Two-dimensional dilaton gravity provides a valuable framework to study the dynamics of quantum black holes. These models are often coupled to conformal scalar fields, which capture essential quantum effects such as the trace anomaly, while…

In this essay we argue that once quantum gravitational effects change the classical geometry of a black hole and remove the curvature singularity, the black hole would not evaporate entirely but approach a remnant. In a modified…
We study spherically symmetric static solutions to the semi-classical Einstein equation sourced by the vacuum energy of quantum fields in the curved space-time of the same solution. We found solutions that are small deformations of the…

We investigate radiation from near-extremal black holes formed by collapse, focusing on the role of large backreaction effects arising from gravitational fluctuations in the near-horizon region. Such effects have previously been identified…
There is a well-known correspondence between the physics of black hole evaporation and that of moving mirrors in QFT. However, most analyses in this subject rely on prescribed mirror trajectories. Here, we study the flat-space dynamics of…
We study the tunneling of massless scalars across black hole horizons in any number of spacetime dimensions greater than three. Our analysis finds that corrections due to backreaction and the inverse dimensional expansion are naturally…
The quantum Oppenheimer-Snyder model for higher-dimensional spacetimes is studied. The higher-dimensional quantum-corrected Schwarzschild black hole is obtained by the junction condition. It turns out that quantum bounces always occur in…
There are models of gravitational collapse in classical general relativity which admit the formation of naked singularities as well as black holes. These include fluid models as well as models with scalar fields as matter. Even if fluid…
We study the propagation of the quantum field perturbations in the interior of the Schwarzschild black hole. The interior of the black hole is like an anisotropic cosmological background which expands in one extended direction while…
We investigate possible geometries allowing transitions from a black hole to a white hole spacetime, by placing a space-like thin shell between them. Such proposals have been advanced recently to account for singularity-resolution in…
Considering exact spacetimes representing rotating black holes and naked singularities, we study the possibility that the Sagnac effect detects $i$) higher dimensions, $ii$) rotation of black holes in higher dimension, and also, $iii$)…
A toy calculation of string/D-particle interactions within a world-sheet approach indicates that quantum recoil effects - reflecting the gravitational back-reaction on space-time foam due to the propagation of energetic particles - induces…
Quantum corrections are studied for a charged black hole in a two-dimensional model obtained by spherisymmetric reduction of the 4D Einstein-Maxwell theory. The classical (tree-level) thermodynamics is re-formulated in the framework of the…
Cosmic censorship conjecture takes a pivotal status in general relativity. We demonstrate that quantum effects, Hawking effect together with Shwinger effect inevitably lead to violation of cosmic censorship. We find that naked singularity…
