For most black holes in string theory, the Schwarzschild radius in string units decreases as the string coupling is reduced. We formulate a correspondence principle, which states that (i) when the size of the horizon drops below the size of…
The string-black hole correspondence principle can be investigated in the non-BPS scenario by studying the string configuration and entropy when the string coupling is slowly increased. Through a rigorous analysis, it is shown how an…

Applying the quantum field theoretic perturbiner approach to Einstein gravity, we compute the metric of a Schwarzschild black hole order by order in perturbation theory. Using recursion, this calculation can be carried out in de Donder…

A rotating black hole threaded by an infinitely long cosmic string is studied in the framework of the Abelian Higgs model. We show that contrary to a common belief, in the presence of rotation the backreaction of the string does not induce…
We present, in closed analytic form, a general stationary, slowly rotating black hole, which is solution to a large class of alternative theories of gravity in four dimensions. In these theories, the Einstein-Hilbert action is supplemented…
Logarithmic corrections to the extremal black hole entropy can be computed purely in terms of the low energy data -- the spectrum of massless fields and their interaction. The demand of reproducing these corrections provides a strong…
A quantum-mechanical prescription of static Einstein field equation is proposed in order to construct the matter-metric eigen-states in the interior of a static Schwarzschild black hole where the signature of space-time is chosen as (--++).…

As argued in arXiv:2104.10172, introducing a non-minimally coupled scalar field, three-dimensional Einstein gravity can be extended by infinite families of theories which admit simple analytic generalizations of the charged BTZ black hole.…
Using effective field theory techniques, we compute quantum corrections to spherically symmetric solutions of Einstein's gravity and focus in particular on the Schwarzschild black hole. Quantum modifications are covariantly encoded in a…
In modified theories of gravity, higher curvature terms may be added to the Einstein-Hilbert action. Conventionally, the effects of the higher curvature terms on the black hole thermodynamics are rather difficult to obtain. In this paper,…
We classified and studied the charged black hole and wormhole solutions in the Einstein--Maxwell system in the presence of a massless, real scalar field. The possible existence of charged black holes in general scalar--tensor theories was…
We review a recent proposal towards a microscopic understanding of the entropy of non-supersymmetric spacetimes -- with emphasis on the Schwarzschild black hole. The approach is based at an intermediate step on the description of the…
We uplift the static three dimensional black hole solution found by Banados, Teitelboim and Zanelli (BTZ) into four dimensional space time. In this way we obtain a black string solution with a relativistic string source, as well as a new…
