Hidden symmetries provide a powerful tool for finding exact solutions in multifield cosmological models. We review how, using such symmetries, one can find inflationary solutions in two-field models, which lead to the generation of…

It was recently shown that (near-)extremal Kerr black holes are sensitive probes of small higher-derivative corrections to general relativity. In particular, these corrections produce diverging tidal forces on the horizon in the extremal…

We analyse a rotating regular black hole with asymptotically Minkowski core. This Kerr-like geometry possesses the full "Killing tower" of nontrivial Killing tensor, Killing-Yano tensor, and principal tensor. The Hamilton-Jacobi equation,…
