We study the evolution of strings in the equatorial plane of a Kerr-Newmann black hole. Writting the equations of motion and the constraints resulting from Hamilton's principle, three classes of exact solutions are presented, for a closed…
In this paper, we consider the Euclidean partition function of uncharged and charged $AdS_{d+1}$ black hole geometries in canonical and grand canonical ensemble for $d\geq3$. It is seen that the partition function can be reduced to a…
The computation of the gravitational radiation emitted by a particle falling into a Schwarzschild black hole is a classic problem studied already in the 1970s. Here we present a detailed numerical analysis of the case of radial infall…
The generic rotating BTZ black hole, obtained by identifications in AdS3 space through a discrete subgroup of its isometry group, is investigated within a Lie theoretical context. This space is found to admit a foliation by two-dimensional…
The study of black holes in string theory has led to the discovery of deep and surprising connections between black holes and modular forms -- which are two classical, a priori unrelated, subjects. This article explains the main physical…
In this paper we have studied a black hole in de Sitter space which has a conformally coupled scalar field in the background. This black hole is also known as the $MTZ$ black hole. We have obtained exact values for the quasi normal mode…
Superstring theory on black-strings backgrounds, corresponding to deformed, rotating BTZ black holes, formed by $p$ fundamental strings or negative strings, is inspected. For non-rotating black strings, in the positive case, it was shown in…

The c-map relates classical hypermultiplet moduli spaces in compactifications of type II strings on a Calabi-Yau threefold to vector multiplet moduli spaces via a further compactification on a circle. We give an off-shell description of the…
Motivated by the recent conjecture of Ooguri, Strominger and Vafa, we compute the semi-canonical partition function of BPS black holes in N=4 and N=8 string theories, to all orders in perturbation theory. Not only are the black hole…
We formulate the Rindler space description of rotating black holes in string theories. We argue that the comoving frame is the natural frame for studying thermodynamics of rotating black holes and statistical analysis of rotating black…
Fundamental string theory has been used to show that low energy excitations of certain black holes are described by a two dimensional conformal field theory. This picture has been found to be extremely robust. In this paper it is argued…
We analyze the string spectrum of flat space in polar coordinates, following the small curvature limit of the $SL(2,\mathbb{R})/U(1)$ cigar CFT. We first analyze the partition function of the cigar itself, making some clarifications of the…
Recently, black hole models in a nonlinear modification of the Maxwell electrodynamics were suggested, possessing simultaneously properties of an extreme charge and regularity (Bronnikov K. A., Phys. Rev. D, 110 (2024) 024021). We study…
We consider the propagation of perturbations along an infinitely long stationary open string in the background of a Schwarzschild black hole. The equations of motion for the perturbations in the 2 transverse physical directions are solved…

Quasinormal modes are a set of damped resonances that describe how an excited open system is driven back to equilibrium. In gravitational physics these modes characterise the ringdown of a perturbed black hole, e.g. following a binary black…
Quasinormal modes of black holes were previously calculated in a non-linear electrodynamics and in the Gauss-Bonnet gravity theory. Here we take into consideration both of the above factors and find quasinormal modes of a (massive) scalar…
