In this paper, we find new scalarized black holes by coupling a scalar field with the Gauss-Bonnet invariant in Teleparallel gravity. The Teleparallel formulation of this theory uses torsion instead of curvature to describe the…

We study here the evolution of a massless scalar field in a spacetime, developing from a regular initial spacelike surface. The Einstein equations and regularity and boundary conditions governing the same are specified. Both homogeneous and…

We derive a novel class of four-dimensional black hole solutions in Gauss-Bonnet gravity coupled with a scalar field in presence of Maxwell electrodynamics. In order to derive such solutions, we assume the ansatz $ g_{tt}\neq g_{rr}{}^{-1}$…

Early-time evolution away from an unstable equilibrium in a nonlinear system is often expected to be governed by the associated linear instability. Combining full nonlinear evolution with first- and second-order quasinormal mode (QNM)…

It has recently been demonstrated that static spatially regular scalar fields, which are non-minimally coupled to the electromagnetic field of a charged central black hole, can be supported in the exterior regions of the black-hole…

In a certain class of scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity, the black holes and the neutron stars can undergo spontaneous scalarization -- a strong gravity phase transition triggered by a tachyonic instability due to the nonminimal coupling between…

Here we show that the phenomenon of arbitrarily long-lived quasinormal modes (called quasiresonances) of a massive scalar field in the vicinity of a black hole is not an artifact of the test field approximation, but takes place also when…

Spontaneous scalarization is a gravitational phenomenon in which deviations from general relativity arise once a certain threshold in curvature is exceeded, while being entirely absent below that threshold. For black holes, scalarization is…
