The aim of this work is to improve understanding of the resonant spectra of black holes under perturbations arising from e.g. compact objects or accretion disks in their vicinity. It is known that adding a weak perturbation to the radial…
We study the stability under perturbations of a charged four dimensional stringy black hole arising from gauging a previously studied WZW model. We find that the black hole is stable only in the extremal case $Q=M$.
A new gauge-invariant criterion for stability against inhomogeneous perturbations of de Sitter space is applied to scenarios of dark energy and inflation in scalar-tensor gravity. The results extend previous studies.
The stability of three static and spherically symmetric black hole solutions with nonlinear electromagnetism as a source is investigated in three different ways. We show that the specific heat of all the solutions displays an infinite…
We present the first example of a linearized gravitational instability of an asymptotically flat vacuum black hole. We study perturbations of a Myers-Perry black hole with equal angular momenta in an odd number of dimensions. We find no…
Regular black holes represent a conservative model in which the classical singularity is replaced by a non-singular core without necessarily modifying the spacetime outside the trapping horizon. Given the possible lack of phenomenological…
One can obtain very large classes of horizonless microstate geometries corresponding to near-extremal black holes by placing probe supertubes whose action has metastable minima inside certain supersymmetric bubbling solutions. We show that…
The behaviour of stationary gravitational perturbations is studied for generalised static black holes in spacetimes of greater than three dimensions, using the formulation developed by the present author and Ishibashi. For the case in which…
In this paper we analyze the propagation of a charged scalar field in a Reissner-Nordstr\"om black hole endowed with one anisotropic fluid that can play the role of a cosmological term for certain set of parameters. The evolution of a…
We perform stability analysis of an accretion disc around a stellar mass black hole. The cooling of the accretion flow due to bremsstrahlung and synchrotron radiation processes are considered. The solutions with shock are perturbed at the…
The linearized dynamics of charged massive scalar fields in the near-extremal charged Reissner-Nordstr\"om-de Sitter (RNdS) black-hole spacetime is studied analytically. Interestingly, it is proved that the non-asymptotically flat charged…
The stability of a spherically symmetric self-gravitating magnetic monopole is examined in the thin wall approximation: modeling the interior false vacuum as a region of de Sitter space; the exterior as an asymptotically flat region of the…
