The parabolic–hyperbolic form of the constraints is integrated numerically. The applied numerical stencil is fourth-order accurate (in the spatial directions) while “time”-integration is made by using the method of lines with a fourth-order order accurate Runge–Kutta scheme. The proper implementation of the applied numerical method is verified by convergence tests and monitoring the relative and absolute errors is determined by comparing numerically and analytically known solutions of the constraints involving boosted and spinning vacuum single black hole configurations. The main part of our investigations is, however, centered on the construction of initial data for distorted black holes which, in certain cases, have non-negligible gravitational wave content. Remarkably, the applied new method is unprecedented in that it allows to construct initial data for highly boosted and spinning black holes, essentially for the full physical allowed ranges of these parameters. In addition, the use of the evolutionary form of the constraints is free from applying any sort of boundary conditions in the strong field regime.

Hyperbolic Form

The parabolic-hyperbolic form of the constraints and superposed Kerr-Schild black holes have already been used to provide a radically new initialization of binary black hole configurations. The method generalizes straightforwardly to multiple black hole systems. This paper is to verify that each of the global Arnowitt-Deser-Misner quantities of the constructed multiple black hole initial data can always be prescribed, as desired, in advance of solving the constraints. These global charges are shown to be uniquely determined by the physical parameters of the involved individual Kerr-Schild black holes.

Proof Of Principle

Abstract General relativity governs the nonlinear dynamics of spacetime, including black holes and their event horizons. We demonstrate that forced black hole horizons exhibit statistically steady turbulent spacetime dynamics consistent with Kolmogorov’s theory of 1941. As a proof of principle we focus on black holes in asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes in a large number of dimensions, where greater analytic control is gained. We focus on cases where the effective horizon dynamics is restricted to 2+1 dimensions. We also demonstrate that tidal deformations of the horizon induce turbulent dynamics. When set in motion relative to the horizon a deformation develops a turbulent spacetime wake, indicating that turbulent spacetime dynamics may play a role in binary mergers and other strong-field phenomena.

Determining the inner structure of a black hole is really an evolutionary problem, with precisely known initial data. The evolution can in principle be followed to within Planck distances of the singularity at the inner horizon, using only well-established physical laws. This article is a progress report and a review of open questions.

AbstractSupermassive black holes are common in centers of galaxies. Among the active galaxies, quasars are the most extreme, and their black hole masses range as high as to 6⋅1010M⊙. Binary black holes are of special interest but so far OJ287 is the only confirmed case with known orbital elements. In OJ287, the binary nature is confirmed by periodic radiation pulses. The period is twelve years with two pulses per period. The last four pulses have been correctly predicted with the accuracy of few weeks, the latest in 2007 with the accuracy of one day. This accuracy is high enough that one may test the higher order terms in the Post Newtonian approximation to General Relativity. The precession rate per period is 39°.1 ± 0°.1, by far the largest rate in any known binary, and the (1.83 ± 0.01)⋅1010M⊙primary is among the dozen biggest black holes known. We will discuss the various Post Newtonian terms and their effect on the orbit solution. The over 100 year data base of optical variations in OJ287 puts limits on these terms and thus tests the ability of Einstein's General Relativity to describe, for the first time, dynamic binary black hole spacetime in the strong field regime. The quadrupole-moment contributions to the equations of motion allows us to constrain the ‘no-hair’ parameter to be 1.0 ± 0.3 which supports the black hole no-hair theorem within the achievable precision.

We report exotic orbital phenomena of spinning test particles orbiting around a Kerr black hole, i.e. some orbits of spinning particles are asymmetrical about the equatorial plane. When a nonspinning test particle orbits around a Kerr black hole in a strong field region, due to relativistic orbital precessions, the pattern of trajectories is symmetrical about the equatorial plane of the Kerr black hole. However, the patterns of the spinning particles’ orbit are no longer symmetrical about the equatorial plane for some orbital configurations and large spins. We argue that these asymmetrical patterns come from the spin–spin interactions between spinning particles and Kerr black holes, because the directions of spin–spin forces can be arbitrary, and distribute asymmetrically about the equatorial plane.

The Stability

In this paper, we present the static charged solutions of quartic quasi-topological gravity in the presence of a nonlinear electromagnetic field. Two branches of these solutions present black holes with one or two horizons or a naked singularity depending on the charge and mass of the black hole. The entropy of the charged black holes of fourth-order quasi-topological gravity through the use of Wald formula is computed and the mass, temperature and the charge of these black holes are found as well. We show that black holes with spherical, flat and hyperbolical horizon in quasi-topological gravity are stable for any allowed quasi-topological parameters. We also investigate the stability of nonlinear charged black holes.

AbstractSince the first investigations into accretion onto black holes, astrophysicists have proposed effective Newtonian-like potentials to mimic the strong-field behavior of matter near a Schwarzschild or Kerr black hole. On the other hand, the fields of neutron stars or black holes in many of the alternative gravity theories differ from the idealized Schwarzschild or Kerr field which would require a number of new potentials. To resolve this, we give a Newtonian-like Hamiltonian which almost perfectly mimics the behavior of test particles in any given stationary space-time. The properties of the Hamiltonian are excellent in static space-times such as the Schwarzschild black hole, but become worse for space-times with gravito-magnetic or dragging effects such as near the Kerr black hole.

Fundamental Scale

The braneworld description of our universe entails a large extra dimension and a fundamental scale of gravity that might be lower by several orders of magnitude compared to the Planck scale. An interesting consequence of the braneworld scenario is in the nature of spherically symmetric vacuum solutions to the brane gravitational field equations which could represent black holes with properties quite distinct compared to ordinary black holes in 4-dimensions. We discuss certain key features of some braneworld black hole geometries. Such black holes are likely to have diverse cosmological and astrophysical ramifications. The cosmological evolution of primordial braneworld black holes is described highlighting their longevity due to modified evaporation and effective accretion of radiation during the early braneworld high energy era. Observational abundance of various evaporation products of the black holes at different eras impose constraints on their initial mass fraction. Surviving primordial black holes could be candidates of dark matter present in galactic haloes. We discuss gravitational lensing by braneworld black holes. Observables related to the relativistic images of strong field gravitational lensing could in principle be used to distinguish between different braneworld black hole metrics in future observations.
