Black Hole Solutions

In general relativity, astrophysical black holes (BHs) are simple objects, described by just their mass and spin. These simple solutions are not exclusive to general relativity, as they also appear in theories that allow for an extra scalar degree of freedom. Recently, it was shown that some theories which couple a scalar field with the Gauss–Bonnet invariant can have the same classic black hole solutions from general relativity as well as hairy BHs. These scalarized solutions can be stable, having an additional “charge” term that has an impact on the gravitational-wave emission by black hole binaries. In this paper, we overview black hole solutions in scalar-Gauss–Bonnet gravity, considering self-interacting terms for the scalar field. We present the mode analysis for the monopolar and dipolar perturbations around the Schwarzschild black hole in scalar-Gauss–Bonnet, showing the transition between stable and unstable solutions. We also present the time-evolution of scalar Gaussian wave packets, analyzing the impact of the scalar-Gauss–Bonnet term in their evolution. We then present some scalarized solutions, showing that nonlinear coupling functions and self-interacting terms can stabilize them. Finally, we compute the light-ring frequency and the Lyapunov exponent, which possibly estimate the black hole quasinormal modes in the eikonal limit.

AbstractBlack holes represent outstanding astrophysical laboratories to test the strong gravity regime, since alternative theories of gravity may predict black hole solutions whose properties may differ distinctly from those of general relativity. When higher curvature terms are included in the gravitational action as, for instance, in the form of the Gauss–Bonnet term coupled to a scalar field, scalarized black holes result. Here we discuss several types of scalarized black holes and some of their properties.

The quasinormal modes for a scalar field in the background spacetime corresponding to a black hole, with a cloud of strings, in Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet gravity, and the tensor quasinormal modes corresponding to perturbations in such spacetime, were both calculated using the WKB approximation. In the obtained results, we emphasize the role played by the parameter associated with the string cloud, comparing them with the results already obtained for the Boulware–Deser metric. We also study how the Gauss–Bonnet correction to general relativity affects the results for the quasinormal modes, comparing them with the same background in general relativity.

AbstractEinstein–Maxwell-scalar models allow for different classes of black hole solutions, depending on the non-minimal coupling function $$f(\phi )$$ f ( ϕ ) employed, between the scalar field and the Maxwell invariant. Here, we address the linear mode stability of the black hole solutions obtained recently for a quartic coupling function, $$f(\phi )=1+\alpha \phi ^4$$ f ( ϕ ) = 1 + α ϕ 4 (Blázquez-Salcedo et al. in Phys. Lett. B 806:135493, 2020). Besides the bald Reissner–Nordström solutions, this coupling allows for two branches of scalarized black holes, termed cold and hot, respectively. For these three branches of black holes we calculate the spectrum of quasinormal modes. It consists of polar scalar-led modes, polar and axial electromagnetic-led modes, and polar and axial gravitational-led modes. We demonstrate that the only unstable mode present is the radial scalar-led mode of the cold branch. Consequently, the bald Reissner–Nordström branch and the hot scalarized branch are both mode-stable. The non-trivial scalar field in the scalarized background solutions leads to the breaking of the degeneracy between axial and polar modes present for Reissner–Nordström solutions. This isospectrality is only slightly broken on the cold branch, but it is strongly broken on the hot branch.

We obtain spinning boson star solutions and hairy black holes with synchronized hair in the Einstein–Klein–Gordon model, wherein the scalar field is massive, complex and with a nonminimal coupling to the Ricci scalar. The existence of these hairy black holes in this model provides yet another manifestation of the universality of the synchronization mechanism to endow spinning black holes with hair. We study the variation of the physical properties of the boson stars and hairy black holes with the coupling parameter between the scalar field and the curvature, showing that they are, qualitatively, identical to those in the minimally coupled case. By discussing the conformal transformation to the Einstein frame, we argue that the solutions herein provide new rotating boson star and hairy black hole solutions in the minimally coupled theory, with a particular potential, and that no spherically symmetric hairy black hole solutions exist in the nonminimally coupled theory, under a condition of conformal regularity.

Abstract Motivated by the recent studies of the novel asymptotically global $$\hbox {AdS}_4$$AdS4 black hole with deformed horizon, we consider the action of Einstein–Maxwell gravity in AdS spacetime and construct the charged deforming AdS black holes with differential boundary. In contrast to deforming black hole without charge, there exists at least one value of horizon for an arbitrary temperature. The extremum of temperature is determined by charge q and divides the range of temperature into several parts. Moreover, we use an isometric embedding in the three-dimensional space to investigate the horizon geometry. The entropy and quasinormal modes of deforming charged AdS black hole are also studied in this paper. Due to the existence of charge q, the phase diagram of entropy is more complicated. We consider two cases of solutions: (1) fixing the chemical potential $$\mu $$μ; (2) changing the value of $$\mu $$μ according to the values of horizon radius and charge. In the first case, it is interesting to find there exist two families of black hole solutions with different horizon radii for a fixed temperature, but these two black holes have same horizon geometry and entropy. The second case ensures that deforming charged AdS black hole solutions can reduce to standard RN–AdS black holes.

AbstractIn this work, we investigate the quasinormal frequencies of a class of regular black hole solutions which generalize Bardeen and Hayward spacetimes. In particular, we analyze scalar, vector and gravitational perturbations of the black hole with the semianalytic WKB method. We analyze in detail the behaviour of the spectrum depending on the parameter p/q of the black hole, the quantum number of angular momentum and the s number. In addition, we compare our results with the classical solution valid for $$p = q = 1$$ p = q = 1 .

We perform a detailed analysis of black hole solutions in supergravity models. After a general introduction on black holes in general relativity and supersymmetric theories, we provide a detailed description of ungauged extended supergravities and their dualities. Therefore, we analyze the general form of black hole configurations for these models, their near-horizon behavior and characteristic of the solution. An explicit construction of a black hole solution with its physical implications is given for the STU-model. The second part of this review is dedicated to gauged supergravity theories. We describe a step-by-step gauging procedure involving the embedding tensor formalism to be used to obtain a gauged model starting from an ungauged one. Finally, we analyze general black hole solutions in gauged models, providing an explicit example for the [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] case. A brief review on special geometry is also provided, with explicit results and relations for supersymmetric black hole solutions.

We compute the quasinormal frequencies for scalar perturbations of charged black holes in five-dimensional Einstein-power-Maxwell theory. The impact on the spectrum of the electric charge of the black holes, of the angular degree, of the overtone number, and of the mass of the test scalar field is investigated in detail. The quasinormal spectra in the eikonal limit are computed as well for several different space-time dimensionalities.

AbstractWe consider asymptotically AdS black hole solutions in Einstein Gauss Bonnet gravity in presence of string clouds. As in the case of black hole solutions in Gauss Bonnet gravity, it admits three black hole solutions in presence of string clouds as well within a region of the parameter space. Using holography, we have studied the quark–antiquark distance and binding energy in the dual gauge theory.

Scalar Hair

We show that scalar hair can be added to rotating, vacuum black holes (BHs) of general relativity. These hairy black holes (HBHs) clarify a lingering question concerning gravitational solitons: Whether a BH can be added at the centre of a boson star (BS), as it typically can for other solitons. We argue that it can, but only if it is spinning. The existence of such HBHs is related to the Kerr superradiant instability triggered by a massive scalar field. This connection leads to the following conjecture: a (hairless) BH, which is afflicted by the superradiant instability of a given field, must allow hairy generalizations with that field.
