Black hole horizon is usually defined as the limit for existence of timelike worldline or when a spatially bound surface turns oneway (it is crossable only in one direction). It would be insightful and physically appealing to find its…
In gravitational collapse leading to black hole formation, trapping horizons typically develop inside the contracting matter. Classically, an ingoing trapping horizon moves towards the centre where it reaches a curvature singularity, while…
A Hamiltonian framework is introduced to encompass non-rotating (but possibly charged) black holes that are ``isolated'' near future time-like infinity or for a finite time interval. The underlying space-times need not admit a stationary…
To ask a question about a black hole in quantum gravity, one must restrict initial or boundary data to ensure that a black hole is actually present. For two-dimensional dilaton gravity, and probably a much wider class of theories as well,…
We discuss the two-dimensional (2D), $\epsilon<2$ extremal ground states of charged black hole. Here $\epsilon$ is the dilaton coupling parameter for the Maxwell term. The complete analysis of stability is carried out for all these extremal…
Dynamics at large redshift near the horizon of an extreme Kerr black hole are governed by an infinite-dimensional conformal symmetry. This symmetry may be exploited to analytically, rather than numerically, compute a variety of potentially…
Equilibrium states of black holes can be modelled by isolated horizons. If the intrinsic geometry is spherical, they are called type I while if it is axi-symmetric, they are called type II. The detailed theory of geometry of \emph{quantum}…
We use the data of several promising gravitational wave observations to obtain increasingly stringent bounds on near-horizon deviations of their sources from the Kerr geometry. A range of horizonless compact objects proposed as alternatives…
Working in a semi-classical setting, we consider solutions of the Einstein equations that exhibit light trapping in finite time according to distant observers. In spherical symmetry, we construct near-horizon quantities from the assumption…
Gravitational-wave astronomy can give us access to the structure of black holes, potentially probing microscopic or even Planckian corrections at the horizon scale, as those predicted by some quantum-gravity models of exotic compact…
Methods are presented to define and compute source multipoles of dynamical horizons in numerical relativity codes, extending previous work from the isolated and dynamical horizon formalisms in a manner that allows for the consideration of…
We obtain approximate analytic expressions for the critical value of the total angular momentum of a non-relativistic test particle moving in the Kerr geometry, such that it will be captured by the black hole. The expressions apply to…
Dynamical, non-asymptotically flat black holes are best characterized by their apparent horizons. Cosmological black hole solutions of General Relativity exhibit two types of apparent horizon behaviours which, thus far, appeared to be…
In the low-energy limit, the near region of a generic Kerr black hole has been conjectured to be holographically dual to a two-dimensional conformal field theory. In this paper, we consider a test object orbiting in the near region of a…
Nonextreme black hole in a cavity can achieve the extreme state with a zero surface gravity at a finite temperature on a boundary, the proper distance between the boundary and the horizon being finite. The classical geometry in this state…
Every spacetime that is asymptotically flat near null infinity can be conformally mapped via a spatial inversion onto the geometry around an extremal, non-rotating and non-expanding horizon. We set up a dictionary for this geometric…
Although a black hole need not be spherical in higher dimensions, its event horizon cannot have arbitrary topology. Here we review some of the known constraints on horizon topology for higher dimensional black holes.
On the lines of the 4-dimensional Kerr black hole we consider the particle acceleration near a 5-dimensional Kerr black hole which has the two rotation parameters. It turns out that the center of mass energy of the two equal mass colliding…
Recently, significant progress has been made in the study of black hole (BH) perturbations, both within the framework of general modified gravity theories and in complex environments. However, a well-established conclusion regarding the…
Recently, Ban\~{a}dos, Silk and West (BSW) demonstrated that the extremal Kerr black hole can act as a particle accelerator with arbitrarily high center-of-mass energy ($E_{CM}$) when the collision takes place near the horizon. The rotating…
