We present a canonical model of spherical gravity with covariant corrections motivated by loop quantum gravity. The effective Hamiltonian defines univocally a family of geometries that generalizes the Lema\^itre-Tolman-Bondi spacetimes, and…
We consider the Einstein-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet theory, and study the case where a negative cosmological constant is replaced by a more realistic, negative scalar-field potential. We study different forms of the coupling function between the…

We construct hairy static black holes of higher dimensional general coupling Einstein-Skyrme theories with the scalar potential turned on and the cosmological constant is non-positive in which the scalar multiplets satisfy $O(d+1)$ model…
Picture yourself in the wave zone of a gravitational scattering event of two massive, spinning compact bodies (black holes, neutron stars or stars). We show that this system of genuine astrophysical interest enjoys a hidden $\mathcal{N}=2$…
In this paper we show how the solar system, the galactic, and the cosmological scales, are accommodated in a single framework, namely, in the derivative expansion framework. We construct a locally inertial static metric, based on the…
Gravitational wave observations can test the validity of General Relativity (GR) in the strong field regime. Certain classes of scalar-tensor theories indeed predict that compact objects can exhibit significant deviations from their GR…
We study spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat black hole solutions in the low-energy effective heterotic string theory, which is the Einstein gravity with Gauss-Bonnet term and the dilaton, in various dimensions. We derive the field…
We naturally extend the theory of gravity with a conformally coupled scalar field by only requiring conformal invariance of the scalar field equation of motion and not of the action. The classically extended theory incorporates a…
We show that M-theory admits a supersymmetric compactification to the Godel universe of the form Godel3 x S2 x CY3. We interpret this geometry as coming from the backreaction of M2-branes wrapping the S2 in an AdS3 x S2 x CY3 flux…
We study black hole solutions in the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity with the dilaton and a negative ``cosmological constant''. We derive the field equations for the static spherically symmetric ($k=1$) and hyperbolically symmetric ($k=-1$)…
We demonstrate the uniqueness of the spacetimes recently found by us in [H. Ovcharenko and J. Podolsky, Phys. Rev. D 112 (2025) 064076]. First, we prove that the conformal-to-Carter metric ansatz we used therein is the only possible for…
This research investigates a non-extreme dyonic-like dilatonic charged black hole solution within a four-dimensional gravity model. This model incorporates two scalar (dilaton) fields and two Abelian vector fields, with interactions between…
We develop a numerical approach to find asymptotically flat black hole solutions coupled to anisotropic fluids, described by generic density profiles. Our model allows for a variety of applications in realistic astrophysical scenarios, and…
Families of exact $(0,2)$ supersymmetric conformal field theories of magnetically and electrically charged extremal 4D black hole solutions of heterotic string theory are presented. They are constructed using a $(0,1)$ supersymmetric…
This is a report of our recent investigation on the extremal dilatonic black holes in four dimensional Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We found that a global solution can exist only when the dilaton coupling is less than a critical value which can be…
We get the general static, spherically symmetric solutions of the d-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton theories by dimensionally reducing them to a class of 2-dimensional dilaton gravity theories. By studying the symmetries of the actions…
We study spherically symmetric black hole solutions in a four-parameter Einstein-Cartan-type class of theories, called "torsion bigravity". These theories offer a geometric framework (with a metric and an independent torsionfull connection)…
We further study the nonperturbative formulation of two-dimensional black holes. We find a nonlinear differential equation satisfied by the tachyon in the black hole background. We show that singularities in the tachyon field configurations…
Using gravitational decoupling under the requirements of a well-defined event horizon and the source matter satisfying the weak energy condition, we construct nonsingular hairy black holes with spherical or axial symmetry. These solutions…
