Abstract We study the null geodesics in a static circularly symmetric (SCS) black hole spacetime, which is a solution in the $(2+1)$D massive gravity proposed by Bergshoeff, Hohm, and Townsend (BHT massive gravity). We obtain analytic solutions for the null geodesic equation in the SCS black hole background and find the explicit form of deflection angles. We see that, for various values of the impact parameter, the deflection angle can be positive, negative, or even zero in this black hole spacetime. The negative deflection angle indicates the repulsive behavior of the gravity that comes from the gravitational hair parameter that is the most characteristic quantity of the BHT massive gravity.

AbstractWe study the Hawking evaporation of a class of black hole solutions in dRGT massive gravity, in which the graviton mass gives rise to an effective negative cosmological constant. We found that the effective emission surface can be either proportional to the square of the effective AdS length scale, or corresponds to the square of the impact parameter of the null geodesic that falls onto the photon orbit of the black hole. Furthermore, depending on the black hole parameters, the emission surface could switch from one to another as the black hole loses mass during the evaporation process. Furthermore, the black holes can either evaporate completely or become a remnant at late time. Our result is more generally applicable to any asymptotically anti-de Sitter-like black hole solution in any theory whose metric function has a term linear in the coordinate radius, with massive gravity being only a concrete example.

This paper is devoted to studying two interesting issues of a black hole with string cloud background. Firstly, we investigate null geodesics and find unstable orbital motion of particles. Secondly, we calculate deflection angle in strong field limit. We then find positions, magnifications, and observables of relativistic images for supermassive black hole at the galactic center. We conclude that string parameter highly affects the lensing process and results turn out to be quite different from the Schwarzschild black hole.

The main goal of this paper is to study the weak gravitational lensing by Horndeski black hole in weak field approximation. In order to do so, we exploit the Gibbons-Werner method to the optical geometry of Horndeski black hole and implement the Gauss-Bonnet theorem to accomplish the deflection angle of light in weak field region. Furthermore, we have endeavored to extend the scale of our work by comprising the impact of plasma medium on the deflection angle as properly. Later, the graphical influence of the deflection angle of photon on Horndeski black hole in plasma and non-plasma medium is examined.

AbstractIn this work, we study the computational complexity of massive gravity theory via the “Complexity = Action” conjecture. Our system contains a particle moving on the boundary of the black hole spacetime. It is dual to inserting a fundamental string in the bulk background. Then this string would contribute a Nambu–Goto term, such that the total action is composed of the Einstein–Hilbert term, Nambu–Goto term and the boundary term. We shall investigate the time development of this system, and mainly discuss the features of the Nambu–Goto term affected by the graviton mass and the horizon curvature in different dimensions. Our study could contribute interesting properties of complexity.

The impact of thermal fluctuations on the thermodynamics of Born–Infeld–anti-de Sitter black hole is being investigated. For this purpose, we analyze the consequences of logarithmic corrections on thermodynamics potentials like Helmholtz and Gibbs. We find out the relations for critical points and stability and observe that thermal corrections play a vital role in them.

The phase structure of charged anti-de Sitter black hole in massive gravity is investigated using the unstable circular photon orbits formalism, concretely we establish a direct link between the null geodesics and the critical behavior thermodynamic of such black hole solution. Our analysis reveals that the radius and the impact parameter corresponding to the unstable circular orbits can be used to probe the thermodynamic phase structure. We also show that the latter are key quantities to characterize the order of Van der Waals-like phase transition. Namely, we found a critical exponent around [Formula: see text]. All these results support further that the photon trajectories can be used as a useful and crucial tool to probe the thermodynamic black holes criticality.

AbstractThe null geodesics and the distance of closest approach for photon around a rotating dyonic black hole in $${\mathcal {N}} = 2, U(1)^2$$ N = 2 , U ( 1 ) 2 gauged supergravity is studied. The phenomenon of black hole shadows with various black hole parameters has also analyzed. Further, the investigation of various thermodynamic properties for this black hole is performed with various thermodynamic parameters at the horizon. The heat capacity to study the thermodynamic stability of this black hole spacetime is also studied. The influence for different values of the black hole parameters $$ \nu $$ ν , e, $$ \nu $$ ν , g and $$N_{g}$$ N g on the phenomenon of black hole shadows and thermodynamic parameters is also investigated visually.

In this article, we calculate the deflection angle of tidal charged black hole (TCBH) in weak field limits. First we obtain the Gaussian optical curvature and then apply the Gauss-Bonnet theorem on it. With the help of Gibbons-Werner method, we are able to calculate the light's deflection angle by TCBH in weak field limits. After calculating the deflection angle of light, we check the graphical behavior of TCBH. Moreover, we further find the light's deflection angle in the presence of plasma medium and also check the graphical behavior in the presence of plasma medium. Moreover, we investigate the shadow of TCBH.For calculating the shadow, we first find the null geodesics around the TCBH and then find its shadow radius. We also obtain TCBH's shadow in the plasma medium. Hence, we discuss the shadow of the TCBH using the $M87^{*}$ parameters announced by the Event Horizon Telescope.

AbstractWe study the propagation of light under a strong electric field in Born–Infeld electrodynamics. The nonlinear effect can be described by the effective indices of refraction. Because the effective indices of refraction depend on the background electric field, the path of light can be bent when the background field is non-uniform. We compute the bending angle of light by a Born–Infeld-type Coulomb charge in the weak lensing limit using the trajectory equation based on geometric optics. We also compute the deflection angle of light by the Einstein–Born–Infeld black hole using the geodesic equation and confirm that the contribution of the electric charge to the total bending angle agree.
