In this work we suggest a simplified "quasi-classical" formalism of the Schwarzschild black hole thermodynamics. We define such small quantum system at Schwarzschild black hole horizon surface whose reduced Compton wavelength equals one…
To what extent are all astrophysical, dark, compact objects both black holes (BHs) and described by the Kerr geometry? We embark on the exercise of defying the universality of this remarkable idea, often called the "Kerr hypothesis". After…

Thermodynamics of rotating black holes described by the R\'enyi formula as equilibrium and zeroth law compatible entropy function is investigated. We show that similarly to the standard Boltzmann approach, isolated Kerr black holes are…

Quintessential dark energy with density $\rho$ and pressure $p$ is governed by an equation of state of the form $p=-\omega_{q}\rho$ with the quintessential parameter $\omega_q\in(-1;-1/3)$. We derive the geometry of quintessential rotating…
Light rays passing very close to black holes may wind several times before escaping. For any given electromagnetic source around the black hole, a distant observer would thus observe two infinite sequences of images on either side of the…
The Hairy Kerr black hole is a novel black hole solution that depicts a rotating space-time encompassed by an axisymmetric fluid. It has significant observational importance and is an excellent candidate for an astrophysical black hole. Our…
We explore black hole solutions in the context of Born-Infeld-f(R) gravity, a modified gravitational framework that extends both Born-Infeld and f(R) theories. By adopting a static, spherically symmetric spacetime ansatz, we derive an exact…
In general relativity without a cosmological constant, a classical theorem due to Hawking states that stationary black holes must be topologically spherical. This result is one of the several ingredients that collectively imply the…
In this paper, we study the properties of the (2+1)-dimensional black holes from the viewpoint of geometrothermodynamics. We show that the Legendre invariant metric of the (2+1)-dimensional black holes can produce correctly the behavior of…
While the quasi-local thermodynamics of spherically symmetric black holes is well described by pressure and volume, extending this framework to rotating spacetimes poses a significant challenge. Rotation induces an oblate deformation of the…

Extracting the rotational energy from a Kerr black hole (BH) is one of the crucial topics in relativistic astrophysics. Here, we give special attention to the Penrose ballistic process based on the fission of a massive particle $\mu_0$ into…
