General Relativity (GR) is shown to be a complete theory with respect to the isochrony of the pendulum. This guarantees that time can be measured with a mechanical clock within the theory itself as a matter of principle. The proper and…
The excitation of a black hole by infalling matter or radiation has been studied for a long time, mostly in linear perturbation theory. In this paper we study numerically the response of a Schwarzschild black hole to an incoming…
Using on-shell amplitude methods, we derive a rotating black hole solution in a generic theory of Einstein gravity with additional terms cubic in the Riemann tensor. We give an explicit expression for the metric in Einsteinian Cubic Gravity…
In this paper, we introduce a class of spacetimes $\left(\mathcal{M},g\right)$ which satisfy the vacuum Einstein equations and dynamically approach a Schwarzschild solution of mass $M$, a class we shall call \emph{ultimately…
We integrate the third and a half post-Newtonian equations of motion for a fully generic binary black hole system, allowing both for non-circular orbits, and for one or both of the black holes to spin, in any orientation. Using the second…
We study the gravitational collapse of a self-gravitating charged scalar-field. Starting with a regular spacetime, we follow the evolution through the formation of an apparent horizon, a Cauchy horizon and a final central singularity. We…
We consider the canonical quantisation of spherically symmetric spacetimes within unimodular gravity, leaving sign choices in the metric general enough to include both the interior and exterior Schwarzschild-(Anti-)de Sitter spacetime. In…
We derive an effective potential for binary black-hole (BBH) spin precession at second post-Newtonian order. This effective potential allows us to solve the orbit-averaged spin-precession equations analytically for arbitrary mass ratios and…
We discuss the properties of the previously constructed model of a Schwarzschild black hole interior where the singularity is replaced by a regular bounce, ultimately leading to a white hole. The model is semiclassical in nature and uses as…
Within the framework of general relativity, we explore the interior of the Schwarzschild black hole before complete collapse occurs, finding that the exterior is perfectly compatible with a source much more complex than a pointlike mass. We…
Using the general parametrization of spherically symmetric and asymptotically flat black holes in arbitrary metric theories of gravity and implying that: a) the post-Newtonian constraints are taken into account and b) basic astrophysically…
In models of minicharged dark matter associated with a hidden $U(1)$ symmetry, astrophysical black holes may acquire a "dark" charge, in such a way that the inspiral dynamics of binary black holes can be formally described by an…
We consider the Schwarzschild black hole and show how, in a theory with limiting curvature, the physical singularity "inside it" is removed. The resulting spacetime is geodesically complete. The internal structure of this nonsingular black…
In Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity, the naive Schwarzian quantum mechanics leads to a continuous bulk spectrum, in apparent contradiction with the finite entropy of the black hole, which requires a discrete spectrum with level spacing of order…
In this paper we have implemented quantum corrections for the Schwarzschild black hole metric using the generalized uncertainty principle (GUP) in order to investigate the scattering process. We mainly compute, at the low energy limit, the…
We study neutrino spin oscillations in black hole backgrounds. In the case of a charged black hole, the maximum frequency of oscillations is a monotonically increasing function of the charge. For a rotating black hole, the maximum frequency…
Circumambient and galactic-scale environments are intermittently present around black holes that reside in active galactic nuclei. As supermassive black holes impart energy on their host galaxy, so the galactic environment affects the…
Evolution of gravitational perturbations, both in time and frequency domains, is considered for a spherically symmetric black hole in the non-reduced Einstein-Aether theory. It is shown that real oscillation frequency and damping rate are…

Detailed observations of phenomena involving black holes, be it via gravitational waves or more traditional electromagnetic means, can probe the strong field regime of the gravitational interaction. The prediction of features in such…
