A primary goal in holographic theories of gravity is to study the causal structure of spacetime from the field theory point of view. This is a particularly difficult problem when the spacetime has a non-trivial causal structure, such as a…
General relativity predicts that images of optically thin accretion flows around black holes should generically have a ``photon ring,'' composed of a series of increasingly sharp subrings that correspond to increasingly strongly lensed…
The supermassive black hole (SMBH) with 4 millions solar mass inside the radio-source Sgr A* in our Galactic center is the nearest SMBH. Once the S stars with shorter period are observed, the relativistic precessions especially the…
Is it possible to find imprints of a black hole ringdown through gravitational lensing? To address this question, we formulate an analytic description of weak-field and strong-deflection lensing of light in a time-dependent, perturbed…
This paper investigates the optical appearance of a Schwarzschild-like black hole (BH) surrounded by a Dehnen-(1, 4, 5/2) type dark matter (DM) halo, with a focus on how the DM halo's density $\rho_{s}$ and radius $r_{s}$ influence the BH's…
We discuss the fundamentals of classical black hole (BH) thermodynamics in a new framework determined by light surfaces and their frequencies. This new approach allows us to study BH transitions inside the Kerr geometry. In the case of BHs,…
The optical appearance of a body compact enough to feature an unstable bound orbit, when surrounded by an accretion disk, is expected to be dominated by a luminous ring of radiation enclosing a central brightness depression typically known…
Faraday rotation has been seen at millimeter wavelengths in several low luminosity active galactic nuclei, including Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) targets M87* and Sgr A*. The observed rotation measure (RM) probes the density, magnetic…
The multipole moments of black holes in general relativity obey certain consistency relations known as the no-hair theorems. The details of this multipolar structure are imprinted into the gravitational waves emitted by binary black holes,…
We study the global structure of some exact scalar hairy dynamical black holes which were constructed in Einstein gravity either minimally or non-minimally coupled to a scalar field. We find that both the apparent horizon and the local…
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has mapped the central compact radio source of the elliptical galaxy M87 at 1.3 mm with unprecedented angular resolution. Here we consider the physical implications of the asymmetric ring seen in the 2017…
There is an exciting prospect of obtaining the shadow of astrophysical black holes (BHs) in the near future with the Event Horizon Telescope. As a matter of principle, this justifies asking how much one can learn about the BH horizon itself…
Simulated images of a black hole surrounded by optically thin emission typically display two main features: a central brightness depression and a narrow, bright "photon ring" consisting of strongly lensed images superposed on top of the…
We study the imaging of a hairy black hole (HBH) in the Einstein-Klein-Gordon theory, where Einstein gravity is minimally coupled to a scalar potential $V(\phi)=-\Lambda \phi^4 + \mu \phi^2$ with $\Lambda$ and $\mu$ are constants. As a…
Recently, the image of a Schwarzschild black hole with an accretion disk has been revisited, and it showed that the "photon ring", defined as highly bent light rays that intersect the disk plane more than twice, is extremely narrow and…
Black hole (BH) shadows can be used to probe new physics in the form of ultra-light particles via the phenomenon of superradiant instability. By directly affecting the BH mass and spin, superradiance can lead to a time evolution of the BH…
Non-commutative black holes(NCBH), due to the non-commutativity of spacetime coordinates, lead to a modification of the spacetime metric. By replacing the Dirac delta function with a Gaussian distribution, the mass is effectively smeared,…
Black hole event horizons and cosmological event horizons share many properties, making it natural to ask whether our recent advances in understanding black holes generalize to cosmology. To this end, we discuss a paradox that occurs if…
Light bending by the strong gravity around the black hole will form the so-called black hole shadow, the shape of which can shed light on the structure of the near-horizon geometry to possibly reveal novel physics of strong gravity and…
In this paper, we theoretically investigate the deflection of light, lensing equations, topological properties of photon rings, and accretion disk characteristics in the spacetime of a holonomy-corrected Schwarzschild black hole surrounded…
