Tidal Love numbers of anti-de Sitter black holes are understood as linear response coefficients governing how the holographically dual plasma polarizes when the geometry of the space, in which the plasma lives, is deformed. So far, this…
Black holes are believed to possess vanishing Love numbers, which implies that they do not deform in the presence of external tides. This fact has been verified in a number of scenarios, that involve tides of bosonic fields of various…

The tidal interaction of a (rotating or nonrotating) black hole with nearby bodies produces changes in its mass, angular momentum, and surface area. Similarly, tidal forces acting on a Newtonian, viscous body do work on the body, change its…
