Production of high-energy gravitational objects is a common feature of gravitational theories. The primordial universe is a natural setting for the creation of black holes and other nonperturbative gravitational entities. Cosmic black holes…
In this paper we present a class of potentials derived by no-scale supergravity in order to explain the production of primordial black holes (PBHs) in the Universe. By breaking the SU(2,1)/SU(2)$\times$U(1) symmetry we fix one of the two…
Particles colliding at impact parameter much larger than the effective gravitational radius can not classically form a black hole and just scatter off the radial potential barrier separating the particles. We show that the process of the…
Sufficiently strong and long-lasting first-order phase transitions can produce primordial black holes (PBHs) that contribute substantially to the dark matter abundance of the Universe, and can produce large-scale primordial magnetic fields.…

We examine spherical gravitational collapse of a matter model with vanishing radial pressure and non-zero tangential pressure. It is seen analytically that the collapsing cloud either forms a black hole or disperses depending on values of…
An evaporating black hole in the presence of an extra spatial dimension would undergo an explosive phase of evaporation. We show that such an event, involving a primordial black hole, can produce a detectable, distinguishable…
The Black Hole Uncertainty Principle correspondence suggests that there could exist black holes with mass beneath the Planck scale but radius of order the Compton scale rather than Schwarzschild scale. We present a modified, self-dual…
We calculate the primordial black hole abundance in the context of a Wess-Zumino type no-scale supergravity model. We modify the K\"ahler potential, by adding an extra exponential term. Using just one parameter in the context of this model,…
In three spatial dimensions, the Compton wavelength $(R_C \propto M^{-1}$) and Schwarzschild radius $(R_S \propto M$) are dual under the transformation $M \rightarrow M_{P}^2/M$, where $M_{P}$ is the Planck mass. This suggests that there…
We study the black hole particle production in a regular spacetime metric obtained in a minisuperspace approach to loop quantum gravity. In different previous papers the static solution was obtained and shown to be singularity-free and…

It is generally believed that mini black holes decay by emitting elementary particles with a black body energy spectrum. The original calculation lead to the conclusion that about the 90% of the black hole mass is radiated away in the form…
Black holes are extreme manifestations of general relativity, so one might hope that exotic quantum effects would be amplified in their vicinities, perhaps providing clues to quantum gravity. The commonly accepted treatment of quantum…
