In this paper, we construct a geometric invariant for initial datasets for the vacuum Einstein field equations , such that is a three-dimensional manifold with an asymptotically Euclidean end and an inner boundary with the topology of the 2-sphere. The hypersurface can be thought of being in the domain of outer communication of a black hole or in the exterior of a star. The geometric invariant vanishes if and only if is an initial dataset for the Kerr spacetime. The construction makes use of the notion of Killing spinors and of an expression for a Killing spinor candidate , which can be constructed out of concomitants of the Weyl tensor.

Static black hole with the Power Maxwell invariant (PMI), Born–Infeld (BI), logarithmic (LN), exponential (EN) electromagnetic fields in three-dimensional spacetime with cosmological constant was studied. It was shown that the LN and EN fields represent the Born–Infeld type of nonlinear electrodynamics. It the framework of General Relativity the exact solutions of the field equations were obtained, corresponding thermodynamic functions were calculated and the [Formula: see text] criticality of the black holes in the extended phase-space thermodynamics was investigated.

We study black hole-like solutions (space–times with singularities) of Einstein field equations in 3+1 and 2+2 dimensions. We find three different cases associated with hyperbolic homogeneous spaces. In particular, the hyperbolic version of Schwarzschild's solution contains a conical singularity at r = 0 resulting from pinching to zero size r = 0 the throat of the hyperboloid [Formula: see text] and which is quite different from the static spherically symmetric (3+1)-dimensional solution. Static circular symmetric solutions for metrics in 2+2 are found that are singular at ρ = 0 and whose asymptotic ρ→∞ limit leads to a flat (1+2)-dimensional boundary of topology S1 × R2. Finally we discuss the (1+1)-dimensional Bars–Witten stringy black hole solution and show how it can be embedded into our (3+1)-dimensional solutions. Black holes in a (2+2)-dimensional "space–time" from the perspective of complex gravity in 1+1 complex dimensions and their quaternionic and octonionic gravity extensions deserve furher investigation. An appendix is included with the most general Schwarzschild-like solutions in D ≥ 4.

Abstract The coupled scalar, electromagnetic, and gravitational field equations of Einstein–dilaton gravity theory have been solved in a three-dimensional energy-dependent spacetime and in the presence of power-law nonlinear electrodynamics. The scalar potential is written as the linear combination of two exponential functions, and two families of three-dimensional dilatonic black hole solutions have been introduced which indicate the impacts of rainbow functions on the spacetime geometry. Through consideration of curvature scalars, it has been found that the asymptotic behavior of the solutions is neither flat nor anti-de Sitter. It has been illustrated that, with a suitable choice of parameters, the solutions can produce the two-horizon, extreme and naked singularity black holes. By calculating the black hole charge, mass, entropy, temperature, and electric potential, it has been proved that they fulfill the standard form of the first law of black hole thermodynamics. The thermodynamic stability of the black holes has been analyzed by utilizing the canonical and grand canonical ensembles and noting the signature of the black hole heat capacity and Gibbs free energy of the black holes. The points of type-1, type-2, and Hawking–Page phase transitions and the ranges at which the black holes are locally or globally stable have been determined. The geometrical thermodynamics of the black holes has been studied by use of different thermodynamic metrics, and the results of different approaches have been compared.

Novel static, time-dependent and spatial–temporal solutions to Einstein field equations, displaying singularities, with and without horizons, and in several dimensions, are found based on a dimensional reduction procedure widely used in Kaluza–Klein-type theories. The Kerr–Newman black hole entropy as well as the Reissner–Nordstrom, Kerr and Schwarzschild black hole entropy are derived from the corresponding Euclideanized actions. A very special cosmological model based on the dynamical interior geometry of a black hole is found that has no singularities at t = 0 due to the smoothing of the mass distribution. We conclude with another cosmological model equipped also with a dynamical horizon and which is related to Vaidya's metric (associated with the Hawking radiation of black holes) by interchanging t ↔ r, which might render our universe a dynamical black hole.

This paper studies the sub-Lorentz–Vrănceanu geometry and the optimal control of nonholonomic black hole systems. This is strongly connected to the possibility of describing a nonholonomic black hole system as kernel of a Gibbs–Pfaff form or by the span of four appropriate vector fields. Joining techniques from sub-Riemannian geometry, optimal control and thermodynamics, we bring into attention new models of black holes systems. These are reflected by the original results: a Lorentz–Vrănceanu geometry on the total space, a new sub-Lorentz–Vrănceanu geometry, a new stress–energy–momentum tensor, original solutions to Einstein field equations, and the controllability of nonholonomic black holes systems by uni-temporal or bi-temporal controls.

In this paper, we have examined the validity of a proposed definition of gravitational entropy in the context of accelerating black hole solutions of the Einstein field equations, which represent the realistic black hole solutions. We have adopted a phenomenological approach proposed in Rudjord et al. [Phys. Scr. 77, 055901 (2008)] and expanded by Romero et al. [Int. J. Theor. Phys. 51, 925 (2012)], in which the Weyl curvature hypothesis is tested against the expressions for the gravitational entropy. Considering the [Formula: see text]-metric for the accelerating black holes, we have evaluated the gravitational entropy and the corresponding entropy density for four different types of black holes, namely, nonrotating black hole, nonrotating charged black hole, rotating black hole and rotating charged black hole. We end up by discussing the merits of such an analysis and the possible reason of failure in the particular case of rotating charged black hole and comment on the possible resolution of the problem.

The issue of encoding physical information into metric structure of physical theories has been discussed recently by the author in the case of black hole teleparallelism. In this paper, one obtains a teleparallel chiral currents from quantum anomalies and topological torsional invariants of Nieh-Yan type. The Pontryagin index is also obtained in the case of rotating Kerr spacetime metric of non-static black holes. Magnetic monopoles which appears in this approach can be eliminated by a torsion constraint. These ideas are applied to Kerr and Kerr–Newmann charged black holes.

We investigate a new class of [Formula: see text]-dimensional topological black hole solutions in the context of massive gravity and in the presence of logarithmic nonlinear electrodynamics. Exploring higher-dimensional solutions in massive gravity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics is motivated by holographic hypothesis as well as string theory. We first construct exact solutions of the field equations and then explore the behavior of the metric functions for different values of the model parameters. We observe that our black holes admit the multi-horizons caused by a quantum effect called anti-evaporation. Next, by calculating the conserved and thermodynamic quantities, we obtain a generalized Smarr formula. We find that the first law of black holes thermodynamics is satisfied on the black hole horizon. We study thermal stability of the obtained solutions in both canonical and grand canonical ensembles. We reveal that depending on the model parameters, our solutions exhibit a rich variety of phase structures. Finally, we explore, for the first time without extending thermodynamics phase space, the critical behavior and reentrant phase transition for black hole solutions in massive gravity theory. We realize that there is a zeroth-order phase transition for a specified range of charge value and the system experiences a large/small/large reentrant phase transition due to the presence of nonlinear electrodynamics.

AbstractObtaining solutions of the Einstein field equations describing spinning compact bodies is typically challenging. The Newman–Janis algorithm provides a procedure to obtain rotating spacetimes from a static, spherically symmetric, seed metric. It is not guaranteed, however, that the resulting rotating spacetime solves the same field equations as the seed. Moreover, the former may not be circular, and thus expressible in Boyer–Lindquist-like coordinates. Amongst the variations of the original procedure, a modified Newman–Janis algorithm (MNJA) has been proposed that, by construction, originates a circular, spinning spacetime, expressible in Boyer–Lindquist-like coordinates. As a down side, the procedure introduces an ambiguity, that requires extra assumptions on the matter content of the model. In this paper we observe that the rotating spacetimes obtained through the MNJA always admit separability of the Hamilton–Jacobi equation for the case of null geodesics, in which case, moreover, the aforementioned ambiguity has no impact, since it amounts to an overall metric conformal factor. We also show that the Hamilton–Jacobi equation for light rays propagating in a plasma admits separability if the plasma frequency obeys a certain constraint. As an illustration, we compute the shadow and lensing of some spinning black holes obtained by the MNJA.
