In Newtonian gravitational theory, a tidal Love number relates the mass multipole moment created by tidal forces on a spherical body to the applied tidal field. The Love number is dimensionless, and it encodes information about the body's…

In this note, we analyze black holes solutions under R3 corrections, which is the leading correction induced by quantum corrections in four-dimensions. We showed that perturbations around this black hole background will lead to non-zero…
The Weak Gravity Conjecture indicates that extremal black holes in the low energy effective field theory should be able to decay. This criterion gives rise to non-trivial constraints on the coefficients of higher-order derivative…
We derive the response, the real part of which provides the tidal Love numbers, for non-extremal as well as extremal Kerr black holes under generic tidal perturbations. Our results suggest that the static as well as dynamical…
The open question of whether a Kerr black hole can become tidally deformed or not has profound implications for fundamental physics and gravitational-wave astronomy. We consider a Kerr black hole embedded in a weak and slowly varying, but…
A well-known result in general relativity is that the tidal Love numbers of black holes vanish. In contrast, different configurations to a black hole may have non-vanishing Love numbers. For instance, it has been conjectured recently that…

Tidal Love numbers (TLNs) characterize the response of compact objects to external tidal fields and vanish for classical Schwarzschild and Kerr black holes in general relativity. Nonvanishing TLNs therefore provide a potential observational…

It is generally believed that tidal deformations of a black hole in an external field, as measured using its gravitational field multipoles, vanish. However, this does not mean that the black hole horizon is not deformed. Here we shall…
The tidal Love numbers (TLNs) encode the deformability of a self-gravitating object immersed in a tidal environment and depend significantly both on the object's internal structure and on the dynamics of the gravitational field. An…
A sum rule for tidal Love number is derived from quantum field theory computations, which relates tidal susceptibility of a spinless body to transition rates of its single graviton emission processes. An analogous sum rule for…
The response of a gravitating object to an external tidal field is encoded in its Love numbers, which identically vanish for classical blackholes (BHs). Here we show, using standard time-independent quantum perturbation theory, that for a…
We derive the quadratic action for the physical degrees of freedom of massless spin-0, spin-1, and spin-2 perturbations on a Schwarzschild--(A)dS background in arbitrary dimensions. We then use these results to compute the static response…
The tidal deformability is a key observable to test the nature of compact objects in a binary coalescence. Within vacuum General Relativity, the tidal Love numbers of a four-dimensional black hole are strictly zero, while they are non-zero…
We derive the model of the Schwarzschild black hole immersed into a dark matter halo with a relativistic Hernquist profile, the Schwarzschild-Hernquist black hole, and obtain its tidal Love numbers and quasi-normal modes. We thoroughly…
In this work, we investigate the tidal response of both static and rotating black holes in anti de-Sitter spacetime. We perform the neutral scalar field perturbation for Schwarzschild and Kerr black holes. On the other hand, charged scalar…
