We present a new family of exact four-dimensional Taub-NUT spacetimes in Einstein-$\Lambda$ theory supplemented with a conformally coupled scalar field exhibiting a power-counting super-renormalizable potential. The construction proceeds as…

We explicitly prove that the Weyl conformal symmetry solves the black hole singularity problem, otherwise unavoidable in a generally covariant local or non-local gravitational theory. Moreover, we yield explicit examples of local and…

We study physical properties and global structures of a time-dependent, spherically symmetric solution obtained via the dimensional reduction of intersecting M-branes. We find that the spacetime describes a maximally charged black hole…

A key obstacle for theory-specific tests of general relativity is the lack of accurate black-hole solutions in beyond-Einstein theories, especially for moderate to high spins. We address this by developing a general framework--based on…

For generic theories of nonlinear electrodynamics (NLED) we investigate the implications of (a)causality on spherically-symmetric solutions of the Einstein-NLED equations that are asymptotic to a Reissner-Nordstr\"om (RN) spacetime.…

Black holes found in binaries move at very high velocities relative to our own reference frame and can accelerate due to the emission of gravitational radiation. Here, we investigate the numerical stability and late-time behavior of linear…

Within a semiclassical framework, we investigate spherically symmetric solutions of the Einstein equations that (i) develop a trapped region within a finite time as measured by distant observers, and (ii) remain sufficiently regular at the…

We study static black holes in quadratic gravity with planar and hyperbolic symmetry and non-extremal horizons. We obtain a solution in terms of an infinite power-series expansion around the horizon, which is characterized by two…

In this work we study static black holes in the regularized 4D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theory of gravity; a shift-symmetric scalar-tensor theory that belongs to the Horndeski class. This theory features a simple black hole solution that can…

We argue that the Einstein-Yang-Mills theory presents nontrivial solutions with a NUT charge. These solutions approach asymptotically the Taub-NUT spacetime. They are characterized by the NUT parameter, the mass and the node numbers of the…

We present black hole uniqueness theorems for the C-metric and Ernst solution. The proof follows a similar strategy as that used to prove the uniqueness of the Kerr-Newman solution, however the presence of an acceleration horizon provides…

We study Killing horizons and their neighbourhoods in the Kerr-NUT-(anti-)de Sitter and the accelerated Kerr-NUT-(anti-)de Sitter spacetimes. The geometries of the horizons have an irremovable singularity at one of the poles, unless the…

We demonstrate the uniqueness of the spacetimes recently found by us in [H. Ovcharenko and J. Podolsky, Phys. Rev. D 112 (2025) 064076]. First, we prove that the conformal-to-Carter metric ansatz we used therein is the only possible for…
