We summarize results from a study of spherically symmetric collapse of a {\it charged} (complex) massless scalar-field \cite{Hod}. We present an analytic argument which conjecture the generalization of the mass-scaling relation and echoing…
It has recently been revealed that, in curved black-hole spacetimes, non-minimally coupled massive Proca fields may be characterized by the existence of poles in their linearized perturbation equations and may therefore develop…
We establish the existence of a family of static, spherically symmetric spacetimes that are solutions of the Einstein Field Equations of General Relativity coupled to the electric field of a static point charge obeying the equations of…
The superradiant growth of massive vector fields in rotating black hole spacetimes has garnered significant attention in recent literature. However, the majority of these studies overlook the influence of a cosmological constant, which…
We investigate the properties of non-rotating, electrically charged strange quark stars in four-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory. For quark matter we adopt the well-motivated quantum chromodynamics (QCD) equation-of-state, while for the…
The Proca potential has been used in many contexts in flat spacetime, but not so often in curved spacetime. Here, the static Proca potentials are derived on a Schwarzschild background, and are found to have very different forms from those…
Under spherical symmetry, we show that the weak cosmic censorship holds for the gravitational collapse of the Einstein-Maxwell-charged scalar field system. Namely, for this system, with generic initial data, the formed spacetime…
The generalized SU(2) Proca theory is a vector-tensor modified gravity theory characterized by an action that remains invariant under both diffeomorphisms and global internal transformations of the SU(2) group. This study aims to further…
I introduce (Extended) Proca-Nuevo, a non-linear theory of a massive spin-1 field enjoying a non-linearly realized constraint. I will provide a covariantization scheme that allows for consistent, ghost-free cosmological solutions,…
In this paper we investigate the Proca-field in the framework of Loop Quantum Gravity. It turns out that the methods developed there can be applied to the symplectically embedded Proca-field, giving a rigorous, consistent, non-perturbative…
We consider a model with two real Maxwell fields (or equivalently, a complex Maxwell field) minimally coupled to Einsteins gravity with a negative cosmological constant in four spacetime dimensions. Assuming a specific harmonic dependence…
We find static spherically symmetric monopoles in Einstein-Born-Infeld-Higgs model in 3+1 dimensions. The solutions exist only when a parameter $\a $ (related to the strength of Gravitational interaction) does not exceed certain critical…
The physical modes of a recently proposed D-dimensional "critical gravity", linearized about its anti-de Sitter vacuum, are investigated. All "log mode" solutions, which we categorize as `spin 2' or `Proca', arise as limits of the massive…
There is increasing numerical evidence that scalar fields can form long-lived quasi-bound states around black holes. Recent perturbative and numerical relativity calculations have provided further confirmation in a variety of physical…
This thesis presents recent studies on test scalar and vector fields around black holes. It is separated in two parts according to the asymptotic properties of the spacetime under study. In the first part, we investigate scalar and Proca…
We investigate the static and spherically symmetric solutions in a class of the generalized Proca theory with the nonminimal coupling to the Einstein tensor. First, we show that the solutions in the scalar-tensor theory with the nonminimal…

We investigate dynamical mass generation in pseudo-Proca quantum electrodynamics (PPQED) using Schwinger--Dyson equations in rainbow-quenched and unquenched approximations. The (3+1)D gauge-field mass $m$, fine-structure constant $\alpha$,…
The existence of localized, approximately stationary, lumps of the classical gravitational and electromagnetic field -- $geons$ -- was conjectured more than half a century ago. If one insists on exact stationarity, topologically trivial…
