Holographic principle and the related self-similarity symmetry are observed widely in nature. Research in black hole, string theory and quantum theory of gravity suggests that holographic principle can be an important symmetry for solving challenging problems in theoretical physics, such as finding the grand unification theory (GUT). In this paper, we derive a quantum theory incorporating the holographic principle by introducing the new concept and elementary information. The derived quantum action incorporating holographic principle, holographic action, turns out to be the generalized action encompassing string theory, general relativity and thermodynamics. This holographic quantum theory indicates that phenomena and laws of physics emerge from the holograms represented by the holographic action. Specifically, it predicts the following: (1) Elementary particles, gravity and gauge interactions and the classical equations of motion are the emergence of the hologram due to Poincaré symmetry, diffeomorphic symmetry and Weyl symmetry, respectively. (2) Dark matter and dark energy are the vibrations on the horizon scale of the universe. (3) Cosmological constant is calculated to be [Formula: see text] in Planck unit, in agreement with the cosmological constant deduced from astrophysical observation (4) The observed space-time is negatively curved if its dimension is greater than 4, positively curved if its dimension is less than 4, and flat if its dimension is 4. (5) It gives the mathematical formula to derive the entropy of black hole and study the internal dynamics of black hole. (6) It provides the mathematical framework to study the dynamics of spacetime compactification and the large hierarchy between Planck scale and electroweak scale. One may conclude that the holographic quantum theory based on holographic principle may be not only a GUT but also able to tackle some of the problems impossible to be addressed before.

In this paper, we have assumed that the thermodynamic pressure may be generated by the negative cosmological constant and the thermodynamic parameters of the n-dimensional asymptotically Anti-de Sitter (AdS)-Tangherlini black holes are identical with the polytropic gas and modified Chaplygin gas separately. The black hole mass, volume, entropy, and temperature have been written due to the assigned gases' thermodynamic system. We found the solutions of Einstein's field equations of n-dimensional black hole for polytropic gas and modified Chaplygin gas. The null energy condition, weak energy condition, strong energy condition, and dominant energy condition have been examined for the fluid sources in n-dimensional black hole system due to both the gases. We found that the four energy conditions completely depend on the model parameters and the dimensions of the spacetime. We have studied the heat engine phenomena for both the black holes and analyzed the work done with the efficiencies due to the Carnot and other cycles. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

It is known that entropy of black hole gets correction at quantum level. Universally, these corrections are logarithmic and exponential in nature. We analyze the impacts of these quantum corrections on thermodynamics of Born–Infeld BTZ black hole in massive gravity by considering both such kinds of correction. We do comparative analysis of corrected thermodynamics with their equilibrium values. Here, we find that the exponential correction yields to the second point of the first-order phase transition. Also, quantum correction affects significantly the Helmholtz free energy of larger black holes. We study the equation of state for the exponential corrected black hole to obtain a leading order virial expansion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Based on the minimum measurable momentum concepts associated with the quantum gravity effects acting on the large-scale dynamics of the universe, we study the quantum effect of the EUP on the Hawking evaporation of the black hole. The results show the quantum corrections may shorten the lifetime of the massive black hole. To verify the new EUP on the black hole stability, the scalar field and electromagnetic field are derived and the time evolution of the black hole is analyzed in terms of the time domain integration method, the quantum effect alters the oscillation and decay time of black hole. Furthermore, we use the WKB numerical approximation method to calculate the quasinormal mode frequencies and analyze the influence of the EUP parameter α on the scattering problem. This shows that the EUP significantly increases the area of the total absorption cross-section of the black hole. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We present a study of the flux distribution of a sample of 15 Intermediate and Low-energy peaked blazars using XMM-Newton observations in a total of 57 epochs on short-term timescales. We characterise the X-ray variability of all of the light curves using excess fractional variability amplitude and found that only 24 light curves in 7 sources are significantly variable. In order to characterise the origin of X-ray variability in these blazars, we fit the flux distributions of all these light curves using Gaussian and lognormal distributions, as any non-Gaussian perturbation could indicate the imprints of fluctuations in the accretion disc, which could be Doppler boosted through the relativistic jets in blazars. However, intra-day variability, as seen in our observations, is difficult to reconcile using disc components as the emissions in such sources are mostly dominated by jets. We used Anderson–Darling (AD) and χ 2 tests to fit the histograms. In 11 observations of 4 blazars, namely, ON 231, 3C 273, PKS 0235+164 and PKS 0521-365, both models equally fit the flux distributions. In the rest of the observations, we are unable to model them with any distribution. In two sources, namely, BL Lacertae and S4 0954+650, the lognormal distribution is preferred over the normal distribution, which could arise from non-Gaussian perturbations from relativistic jets or linear Gaussian perturbation in the particle time scale leading to such flux distributions.

The ModMax model of nonlinear electrodynamics (NED) is investigated in the absence of the linear term. The linear term is itself a ModMax model, however, the nonlinear term is not. First, in (3+1)-dimensional Minkowski spacetime, we introduce the electromagnetic theory in this NED model. We find the vacuum electric permittivity and magnetic permeability which both are in tensor form. This shows that the propagation of the speed of the electromagnetic wave depends on the direction. Finally, we couple our NED Lagrangian density minimally with the standard gravity and find a dyonic black hole solution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Hawking temperature for a Schwarzschild black hole is T = 1 / 8 π M , where M is the black hole mass. This formula is derived for a fixed Schwarzschild background metric, where the mass M could be arbitrary small. Note that, for vanishing M → 0 , the temperature T becomes infinite. However, the Schwarzschild metric itself is regular when the black hole mass M tends to zero; it is reduced to the Minkowski metric, and there are no reasons to believe that the temperature becomes infinite. We point out that this discrepancy may be due to the fact that the Kruskal coordinates are singular in the limit of the vanishing mass of the black hole. To elucidate the situation, new coordinates for the Schwarzschild metric are introduced, called thermal coordinates, which depend on the black hole mass M and the parameter b. The parameter b specifies the motion of the observer along a special trajectory. The thermal coordinates are regular in the limit of vanishing black hole mass M. In this limit, the Schwarzschild metric is reduced to the Minkowski metric, written in coordinates dual to the Rindler coordinates. Using the thermal coordinates, the Schwarzschild black hole radiation is reconsidered, and it is found that the Hawking formula for temperature is valid only for large black holes, while for small black holes, the temperature is T = 1 / 2 π (4 M + b) . The thermal observer in Minkowski space sees radiation with temperature T = 1 / 2 π b , similar to the Unruh effect with non-constant acceleration. The thermal coordinates for more general spherically symmetric metrics, including the Reissner–Nordstrom, de Sitter, and anti-de Sitter, are also considered. In these coordinates, one sees a Planck distribution with constant temperature. One obtains that the thermal Planck distribution of massless particles is not restricted to the cases of black holes or constant acceleration, but is valid for any spherically symmetric metric written in thermal coordinates.

An important aspect of general relativity is to study properties of geodesics. A useful tool for describing geodesic behavior is the geodesic deviation equation. It allows to describe the tidal properties of gravitating objects through the curvature of spacetime. This paper focuses on the study of the axially symmetric Taub–NUT metric. We study tidal effects in this metric using the geodesic deviation equation. Radial geodesics along the symmetry axis of spacetime are considered. We show that all spatial components of tidal forces always change sign under the event horizon. We find a solution of the geodesic deviation equation for all geodesic deviation vector components. It allows us to quantify the effect of the NUT-charge on the tidal properties of Taub–NUT metric. Another important feature that we found is the regular behavior of all tidal force components at all points of spacetime. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

GRAVITATIONAL collapse , *BLACK holes , *SEMICLASSICAL limits , *PROBLEM solving , *INFLATIONARY universe - Abstract
I argue that an approach which uses an appropriate admixture of both classical and semiclassical effects is essential for understanding the ultimate fate of gravitational collapse and the nature of black holes (BHs). I provide an example of a problem which pushes the boundaries of what is known in both the classical and semiclassical approaches: the evolution of the inner horizon of a BH. I show that solving this problem requires considering perturbations of both classical and semiclassical origins. In fact, it has been found that classical mass inflation might be counteracted by a semiclassical tendency for the inner horizon to inflate outward. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

GRAVITATIONAL waves , *ECHO , *BLACK holes , *SPACETIME , *MERGERS & acquisitions , *STRING theory - Abstract
In several approaches to evading the information paradox, the semiclassical black hole is replaced by an Exotic Compact Object (ECO). It has been conjectured that gravitational waves emitted by the merger of ECOs can reflect off the ECOs and produce a detectable 'echo'. We argue that while a part of the wave can indeed reflect off the surface of an ECO, this reflected wave will get trapped by a new closed trapped surface produced by its own backreaction. Thus, no detectable signal of the echo will emerge to infinity. The only assumption in this analysis is that causality is maintained to leading order in gently curved spacetime. Thus, if echoes are actually detected, then we would face a profound change in our understanding of physics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

PATH integrals , *PARADOX , *BLACK holes , *ENTROPY - Abstract
The information loss paradox remains unresolved ever since Hawking's seminal discovery of black hole evaporation. In this paper, we revisit the entanglement entropy via Euclidean path integral (EPI) and allow for the branching of semi-classical histories during the Lorentzian evolution. We posit that there exist two histories that contribute to EPI, where one is information-losing that dominates at early times, while the other is information-preserving that dominates at late times. By so doing, we recover the Page curve and preserve the unitarity, albeit with the Page time shifted significantly towards the late time. One implication is that the entropy bound may thus be violated. We compare our approach with string-based islands and replica wormholes concepts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

QUANTUM superposition , *BLACK holes , *QUANTUM theory , *DECOHERENCE (Quantum mechanics) , *QUANTUM gravity - Abstract
We show that if a massive body is put in a quantum superposition of spatially separated states, the mere presence of a black hole in the vicinity of the body will eventually destroy the coherence of the superposition. This occurs because, in effect, the gravitational field of the body radiates soft gravitons into the black hole, allowing the black hole to acquire "which path" information about the superposition. A similar effect occurs for quantum superpositions of electrically charged bodies. We provide estimates of the decoherence time for such quantum superpositions. We believe that the fact that a black hole will eventually decohere any quantum superposition may be of fundamental significance for our understanding of the nature of black holes in a quantum theory of gravity.

In this paper, we study the weak deflection angle of black hole in effective loop quantum gravity using the geometrical technique used by Gibbons and Werner. We first derive the optical metric, calculate the Gaussian optical curvature, and then apply the Gauss–Bonnet theorem. We then also investigate the effect of plasma and dark matter mediums on the weak deflection angle. We show that increasing the impact of these two mediums grows the deflection angle. We also calculate the Hawking temperature via Gauss–Bonnet theorem. In addition, we determine the fermionic greybody bounds. Moreover, we discuss the graphical behaviour of the deflection angle and bounds on the greybody factor. Graphically, we observe that taking 0 < A λ < 1 angle ranges from negative values to maximum values and also attain maximum value for these values of A λ and for A λ ≥ 1 exponentially approaches to zero. Later, we graphically investigate that the greybody factor bound exhibits the convergent behaviour by converging to 1. We also examine that the results obtained for the black hole in effective loop quantum gravity are reduced to the Schwarzschild black hole solutions when the dimensionless non-negative parameter is equal to zero A λ = 0 .

In this article, we explore an alternative derivation of Hawking radiation. Instead of the field-theoretic derivation, we have suggested a simpler calculation based on quantum mechanical reflection from a one-dimensional potential. The reflection coefficient shows an exponential fall in energy which, in comparison with the Boltzmann probability distribution, yields a temperature. The temperature is the same as Hawking temperature for spherically symmetric black holes. The derivation gives an exact local calculation of Hawking temperature that involves a region lying entirely outside the horizon. This is a crucial difference from the tunneling calculation, where it is necessary to involve a region inside the horizon. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We show that the spherically symmetric black hole (BH) solution of a charged (linear case) field equation of Rastall gravitational theory is not affected by the Rastall parameter and this is consistent with the results presented in the literature. However, when we apply the field equation of Rastall's theory to a special form of nonlinear electrodynamics (NED) source, we derive a novel spherically symmetric BH solution that involves the Rastall parameter. The main source of the appearance of this parameter is the trace part of the NED source, which has a non-vanishing value, unlike the linear charged field equation. We show that the new BH solution is Anti−de-Sitter Reissner−Nordström spacetime in which the Rastall parameter is absorbed into the cosmological constant. This solution coincides with Reissner−Nordström solution in the GR limit, i.e., when Rastall's parameter is vanishing. To gain more insight into this BH, we study the stability using the deviation of geodesic equations to derive the stability condition. Moreover, we explain the thermodynamic properties of this BH and show that it is stable, unlike the linear charged case that has a second-order phase transition. Finally, we prove the validity of the first law of thermodynamics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Nonlinear electrodynamics is known as the generalizations of Maxwell electrodynamics at strong fields and presents interesting features such as curing the classical divergences present in the linear theory when coupled to general relativity. In this paper, we consider the asymptotically flat Reissner–Nordström black hole solution with higher-order magnetic correction in Einstein-nonlinear-Maxwell fields. We study the effect of the magnetic charge parameters on the black hole, viz., weak deflection angle of photons and massive particles using the Gauss–Bonnet theorem. Moreover, we apply Keeton–Petters formalism to confirm our results concerning the weak deflection angle. Apart from a vacuum, their influence in the presence of different media such as plasma and dark matter are probed as well. Finally, we examine the black hole shadow cast using the null-geodesics method and investigate its spherically in-falling thin accretion disk. Our inferences show how the magnetic charge parameter p affects the other physical quantities; so, we impose some constraints on this parameter using observations from the Event Horizon Telescope.

The study of black hole shadows by considering the surrounding kinds of matter has attracted interest in recent years. In this paper, we use the ray-tracing method to study shadows and photon spheres of renormalization group improved (RGI) black holes, taking into account the different thin spherical accretion models. We find that an increase in the parameters Ω and γ, which are excited by renormalization group theory, can decrease the event horizon and the radius of the photon sphere while increasing the effective potential. For static and infalling accretions, these results indicate that black hole shadows are related to the geometry of spacetime, and are nearly unaffected by spherical accretions. However, due to the Doppler effect, the shadow in the infalling case is darker than the static one, and the intensities of the photon sphere decay more slowly from the photon sphere to infinity. In addition, the peak intensities out of the shadow increase with the parameters Ω and γ. Finally, it can be seen that the effect of Ω on the shadow is more distinct by comparing it with that of γ at the same parameter level. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we study thermodynamic geometry for pure Lovelock black holes. The thermodynamics scalar curvature contains information about the interaction of microstates that might be repulsive or attractive. We obtain critical exponents and critical amplitudes of scalar and extrinsic curvatures for small and large black holes for various dimensions. We demonstrate that this model's thermodynamic Ricci scalar scaling behavior has a universal behavior for different dimensions. Moreover, we determine the order of phase transition by using Ehrenfest's equations and the Prigogine–Defay ratio. We also consider the extended phase space and investigate the critical behavior of the pure Lovelock black holes for various dimensions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this note, a time-dependent spacetime is explored in the background of f (R , T) gravity via the gravitational collapse of a massive star. The star is modeled by the Vaidya spacetime which is time-dependent in nature. The coupling of matter with curvature is the key feature of f (R , T) theory and here we have investigated its effects on a collapsing scenario. Two different types of models, one involving minimal and the other involving nonminimal coupling between matter and curvature are considered for our study. Power law and exponential functionalities are considered as examples to check the outcome of the gravitational collapse. A detailed analysis on the appearance of horizons in Vaidya spacetime is performed and its astrophysical implications are explored. Our prime objective is to explore the nature of singularities (black hole or naked singularity) that form as an end state of the collapse. Existence of outgoing radial null geodesics from the central singularity was probed and such existence implied the formation of naked singularities thus defying the cosmic censorship hypothesis. The absence of such outgoing null geodesics would imply the formation of an event horizon and the singularity formed becomes a black hole. Conditions under which such possibilities occur are derived for all the models and sub-models. Gravitational strength of the singularity is also investigated and the conditions under which we can get a strong or a weak singularity is derived. The results obtained are very interesting and may be attributed to the coupling between curvature and matter. It is seen that for nonminimal coupling there is a possibility of a globally naked singularity, whereas for a minimal coupling scenario local nakedness is the only option. It is also found that the singularity formed can be sufficiently weak in nature, which is cosmologically desirable. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

222. Probing dark matter spikes via gravitational waves of extreme-mass-ratio inspirals.

Li, Gen-Liang, Tang, Yong, and Wu, Yue-Liang
- Abstract
The exact properties of dark matter remain largely unknown despite the accumulating evidence. If dark matter is composed of weakly interacting massive particles, it would be accreted by the black hole in the galactic center and form a dense, cuspy spike. Dynamical friction from this spike may have observable effects in a binary system. We consider extreme-mass-ratio inspiral (EMRI) binaries comprising massive black holes harbored in dark matter spikes and stellar mass objects in elliptic orbits. We find that the gravitational-wave waveforms in the frequency domain can be substantially modified. In particular, we show that dark matter can suppress the characteristic strain of a gravitational wave at low frequency but enhance it at a higher domain. These effects are more dramatic as the dark matter density increases. The results indicate that the signal-to-noise ratio of EMRIs can be strongly reduced near 10
−3 −0.3 Hz but enhanced near 1.0 Hz with a higher sensitivity, which can be probed via the future space-borne gravitational-wave (GW) detectors, LISA and TAIJI. The findings will have important impacts on the detection and parameter inference of EMRIs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

In this work, we studied the gravitational collapse of a spherically symmetric radiating star consisting of perfect fluid (baryonic) in the background of dark energy (DE) with an equation of state p DE = ω ρ DE . The effect of DE on the singularity formation has been discussed in two separate cases: first when only DE is present, and the other, with a combination of both baryonic and DE interaction. We have shown that DE component p DE plays an important role in the formation of black hole (BH). In some cases, the collapse of radiating stars leads to BH formation, and in other cases, it forms naked-singularity (or, eternally collapse). This study is in itself a significant work to describe the effect of DE on singularity formation in radiating stars. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We obtain the exact solution of the field equations in the framework of the Rastall gravity for a static, charged and spherically symmetric black hole surrounded by a fluid of strings and analyze the behavior of the horizons, mass, Hawking temperature and geodesics in terms of the parameter related to the presence of the fluid as well as on the parameter β of the Rastall gravity. We discuss some particular cases and the fact that a subclass of the obtained solutions can be mapped to black hole solutions obtained in the framework of general relativity. We also obtain a class of solutions which correspond to a rotating, charged black hole surrounded by a fluid of strings, by applying an algorithm to construct rotating solutions from the static solutions. The horizons, mass, Hawking temperature, ergoregions and geodesics are examined. The role played by the presence of the fluid of strings and the characteristics arising from the Rastall gravity are emphasized. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We consider the charged d-dimensional black holes in the cavity in extended phase space and investigate the heat engine and the Joule-Thomson (JT) expansion. Since the phase structure of black holes in the cavity is similar to anti-de-sitter (AdS) cases, we take black holes in a cavity as the working substance in the heat engine and calculate their efficiency in Carnot cycle and rectangular cycle. Also, we discuss whether the JT expansion of charged black holes in the cavity is consistent with AdS cases and find the charged black hole in a cavity always cools down during the isenthalpic process with the decreasing pressure.

The thermal radiation properties of the accretion disk around a non-rotating black hole with a perfect fluid dark matter (PFDM) environment are investigated. A non-rotating black hole surrounded by perfect fluid dark matter together with a classical geometrically thin but optically thick Novikov–Thorne disk is selected as a system to be analyzed. It is observed that the perfect fluid dark matter strengthens the gravitational field, which leads to both the increase of the radii of the event horizon and the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO). However, for the flux of the radiant energy over the accretion disk, the maximum flux is reduced and shifted outwards the central object under the influence of the perfect fluid dark matter. The dependence of the thermal profile of the disk on the radial coordinate and the intensity of perfect fluid dark matter shows analogous behavior. It has been demonstrated that the radiative efficiency of the accretion disk is increased from ∼6% up to ∼20% with the increase in the intensity of the surrounding perfect fluid dark matter. The thermal spectra of the accretion disk has also been explored, which is shifted towards the lower frequencies (corresponding to the gravitational redshift of the electromagnetic radiation coming from the disk) with the increase in the intensity of the perfect fluid dark matter.

This theory was developed by Einstein under the premises of the principle of equivalence to describe the behavior of inertial systems in accelerated reference frames, but the physical basis for the principle of equivalence and for the existence of accelerated reference frames remains to be understood. Here, we postulate that the principle of equivalence could be explained in terms of an accelerated flow of space toward the origin of the gravitational field, which would explain the accelerated reference frames. We provide evidence that the gravitational constant predicts the observed increase in the Hubble constant from early to late universe. This suggests that gravity and accelerated expansion of the universe could derive from the same physical principle depending on the mass density operating in each process. Massinduced accelerated space expansion through a hypothetical fourth spatial dimension could explain the curvature of spacetime. It would be the projection of the expanded space to our threedimensional universe what would lead to relativistic gravitational effects such as time dilation, redshift, and black hole formation. Therefore, a gravitational theory can be envisioned, halfway between classical mechanics and GTR. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

BLACK holes ,MATHEMATICAL optimization ,SUPERGIANT stars ,PROBLEM solving - Abstract
Algorithms inspired by nature became more popular in the last few years. They showed up powerful capability in solving optimization problems. This capability was obtained by their ability to be applied individually or by merging them with other algorithms or techniques. The Black Hole optimization algorithm is a nature-inspired algorithm that belongs to the meta-heuristic category. The Black-Hole algorithm (BH) simulates the black hole phenomenon which is formed from a star with massive size and very high gravitational power. The algorithm starts with a population of a specific size of possible solutions and then gets evaluated by selecting the best one as a black hole. In the suggested modifications, we have introduced a new idea for generating the stars absorbed by the black hole. The star movement towards the black hole has also been modified to increase exploration capabilities. The modified algorithm was used to prove its effectiveness in data clustering without any prior knowledge about the nature of the provided data. Several benchmark datasets and statistical techniques have been used to evaluate the performance of suggested modification. The experiment results promised that the improved algorithm can overcome popular optimization algorithms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
The waveguide acoustic black hole (WAB) effect is a promising approach for controlling wave propagation in various applications, especially for attenuating sound waves. While the wave-focusing effect of structural acoustic black holes has found widespread applications, the classical ribbed design of waveguide acoustic black holes (WABs) acts more as a resonance absorber than a true wave-focusing device. In this study, we employ a computational design optimization approach to achieve a conceptual design of a WAB with enhanced wave-focusing properties. We investigate the influence of viscothermal boundary losses on the optimization process by formulating two distinct cases: one neglecting viscothermal losses and the other incorporating these losses using a recently developed material distribution topology optimization technique. We compare the performance of optimized designs in these two cases with that of the classical ribbed design. Simulations using linearized compressible Navier-Stokes equations are conducted to evaluate the wave-focusing performance of these different designs. The results reveal that considering viscothermal losses in the design optimization process leads to superior wave-focusing capabilities, highlighting the significance of incorporating these losses in the design approach. This study contributes to the advancement of WAB design and opens up new possibilities for its applications in various fields.

- Abstract
We present general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations of merging equal-mass spinning black holes embedded in an equatorial thin slab of magnetized gas. We explore configurations with black holes that are nonspinning, with spins aligned to the orbital angular momentum, and with misaligned spins. The rest-mass density of the gas slab follows a Gaussian profile symmetric relative to the equatorial plane and it is initially either stationary or with Keplerian rotational support. As part of our diagnostics, we track the accretion of matter onto the black hole horizons and the Poynting luminosity. Throughout the inspiral phase, configurations with nonzero spins display modulations in the mass accretion rate that are proportional to the orbital frequency and its multiples. Frequency analysis suggests that these modulations are a generic feature of inflows on merging binaries. In contrast to binary models evolved in a gas cloud scenario, we do not observe a significant increase in the mass accretion rate after the merger in any of our simulations, suggesting the possibility of not detecting a peak luminosity at the time of merger in future electromagnetic observations.

- Abstract
Searches for gravitational waves from compact binary mergers, which to date have reported ∼100 observations, have previously ignored binaries whose components are consistent with the mass of neutron stars (1-2 M⊙) and have high dimensionless spin >0.05. While previous searches targeted sources that are representative of observed neutron star binaries in the Galaxy, it is already known that neutron stars can regularly be spun up to a dimensionless spin of ∼0.4, and in principle reach up to ∼0.7 before breakup would occur. Furthermore, there may be primordial black hole binaries or exotic formation mechanisms to produce light black holes. In these cases, it is possible for the binary constituent to be spun up beyond that achievable by a neutron star. A single detection of this type of source would reveal a novel formation channel for compact binaries. To determine whether there is evidence for any such sources, we use pycbc to conduct a targeted search of LIGO and Virgo data for light compact objects with high spin. Our analysis detects previously known observations GW170817 and GW200115; however, we report no additional mergers. The most significant candidate, not previously known, is consistent with the noise distribution, and so we constrain the merger rate of spinning light binaries.

- Abstract
Two-body relaxation may drive stars onto near-radial orbits around a massive black hole, resulting in a tidal disruption event (TDE). In some circumstances, stars are unlikely to undergo a single terminal disruption, but rather to have a sequence of many grazing encounters with the black hole. It has long been unclear what is the physical outcome of this sequence: each of these encounters can only liberate a small amount of stellar mass, but may significantly alter the orbit of the star. We study the phenomenon of repeating partial tidal disruptions (pTDEs) by building a semi-analytical model that accounts for mass loss and tidal excitation. In the empty loss cone regime, where two-body relaxation is weak, we estimate the number of consecutive partial disruptions that a star can undergo, on average, before being significantly affected by two-body encounters. We find that in this empty loss cone regime, a star will be destroyed in a sequence of weak pTDEs, possibly explaining the tension between the low observed TDE rate and its higher theoretical estimates.

- Abstract
An interesting mechanism for the formation of hairy black holes occurs when a vector field, non-minimally coupled to a source term, grows from a perturbation of the vacuum black hole, aka vectorization. Its study has, however, been lacking, in part due to the constant threat of ghost instabilities that have plagued vector fields. In this work, we show evidence that, in a generic family of extended-vector-tensor theories where the vector field is non-minimally coupled to the model's invariant (source term), a spherically symmetric vectorized black hole always suffers from ghost instabilities. These ultimately turn the process of vectorization astrophysically unviable.

- Abstract
In AdS/CFT si incontrano frequentemente problemi di estremizzazione. Osservabili in teoria di campo come cariche centrali e funzioni di partizione sulla sfera possono essere calcolati a partire da funzioni estremali delle soluzioni di supergravità duali. Queste ultime possono essere espresse in termini di quantità topologiche che appaiono naturalmente nel contesto della localizzazione equivariante. Un esempio particolarmente interessante di funzioni estremali sono le funzioni d'entropia di buchi neri supersimmetrici in AdS, la cui trasformata di Legendre riproduce l'entropia di Bekenstein-Hawking. Focalizzandoci sul caso di buchi neri di Kerr-Newman asintoticamente AdS_5 x SE_5, l'indice superconforme della duale teoria quiver N=1 eguaglia la funzione d'entropia nel limite di grande-N. Nella prima parte di questa tesi studiamo l'indice superconforme di teorie quiver N=1 a grande-N per valori generali di cariche elettriche e momenti angolari, usando sia la formulazione Bethe Ansatz che il più recente metodo di estensione ellittica. Siamo particolarmente interessati al caso di momenti angolari diversi, che è stato considerato solo parzialmente nella letteratura. Rivisitiamo il precedente calcolo con la formulazione Bethe Ansatz a momenti angolari generici e lo estendiamo in modo da includere una vasta classe di termini esponenziali in competizione. Nel mentre semplifichiamo anche la derivazione del risultato generale. Consideriamo anche il recente metodo di estensione ellittica; lo applichiamo al caso di momenti angolari diversi, trovando un buon accordo con i risultati di Bethe Ansatz. Investighiamo anche la relazione tra i due diversi approcci trovando in particolare che per ogni sella dell'azione ellittica ci sono termini corrispondenti nella formula Bethe Ansatz che a grande-N li eguagliano. Nella seconda parte di questa tesi studiamo le funzioni estremali di soluzioni in supergravità attraverso le lenti della localizzazione equivariante. Recentemente è stat, Extremization problems are frequently encountered in AdS/CFT. Field theory observables such as central charges and sphere partition functions can be computed from extremal functions of the dual supergravity solution. The latter can be expressed in terms of topological quantities that naturally arise in the context of equivariant localization. A particularly interesting example of extremal functions are the entropy functions of AdS supersymmetric black holes, whose Legendre transform reproduces the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy. Focusing on the case of Kerr-Newman black holes asymptotically AdS_5 x SE_5, the superconformal index of the dual four-dimensional N=1 quiver theory can match the entropy function in the large-N limit. In the first part of this thesis we study the superconformal index of N=1 quiver theories at large-N for general values of electric charges and angular momenta, using both the Bethe Ansatz formulation and the more recent elliptic extension method. We are particularly interested in the case of unequal angular momenta which has only been partially considered in the literature. We revisit the previous computation with the Bethe Ansatz formulation with generic angular momenta and extend it to encompass a large class of competing exponential terms. In the process, we also provide a simplified derivation of the original result. We consider the newly-developed elliptic extension method as well; we apply it to the case of unequal angular momenta, finding a good match with the Bethe Ansatz results. We also investigate the relation between the two different approaches, finding in particular that for every saddle of the elliptic action there are corresponding terms in the Bethe Ansatz formula that match it at large-N. In the second part of this thesis we study extremal functions of supergravity solutions through the lenses of equivariant localization. Recently it has been proposed that a vast class of gravitational extremization problems in holography can be

- Abstract
The Acceleration Theory, a novel concept explored in this research paper, challenges the classical and quantum theories to elucidate the accelerating expansion of the universe. While the constancy of mass for subatomic particles over time and the existence of various matter particles, including Dark Matter (DM), Anti-Matter (AM), and regular matter, are well-established, the origins of these particles and the driving forces behind cosmic expansion remain intriguing questions. This work delves into the theoretical foundations of how Dark Matter, Anti-Matter, and regular matter particles were generated in the early universe, unraveling the cosmic mechanisms that led to their existence and the compelling phenomenon of universal expansion. Secondly, addressing the finiteness of the speed of light, this research explores alternative perspectives on its constancy and investigates potential influences of Dark Energy (DE) on light speed. Thirdly, furthermore, the paper examines the four fundamental forces—Electromagnetic Force (EF), Strong Force (SF), Weak Force (WF), and Gravitational Force (GF)—in the context of quantum unification. While EF, SF, and WFs have found unification through quantum theory, GF remains distinct. Despite efforts in General Relativity (GR) to comprehensively address gravitational forces, a unifying framework with the other three forces is elusive. To bridge this gap, the paper introduces innovative concepts of Space Energy (SE) and Space Constant (SC) to reconcile and unify these fundamental forces. Finally, the research concludes by contemplating a unified theory for the universe and explores the possibility of an acceleration principle governing every cosmic event. By scrutinizing diverse theories and introducing new concepts, this paper contributes to advancing our understanding of the fundamental principles that govern the cosmos.

- Abstract
Secondo il modello cosmologico odierno le galassie si formano attraverso fusioni di entità più piccole e i buchi neri supermassicci (SMBH) che, se presenti, tendono a migrare verso il centro dove della galassia ospite e possono quindi formare sistemi binari. La formazione e l'evoluzione delle binarie di SMBH, e in particolare la scala temporale della loro coalescenza, sono particolarmente rilevanti per le strutture attuali e future volte a rilevare il segnale delle onde gravitazionali prodotte dai SMBH vicini alla coalescenza. Nella prima parte della mia tesi, esploro l'impatto della rotazione della componente stellare della galassia ospite sull'efficacia di contrazione dei buchi neri in sistemi binari guidato dalle interazioni stellari a tre corpi. In linea con indagini precedenti, osservo che il centro di massa (CoM) di una binaria di buchi neri supermassicci prograda (SMBHB) all'interno di un ambiente rotante, poco dopo la formazione di un SMBHB legato inizia a muoversi attorno al centro della galassia ospite su orbite quasi circolari. Nelle mie simulazioni, il raggio di oscillazione è approssimativamente 0,25 (0,1) volte il raggio di influenza binaria per SMBHB di massa uguale (SMBHB con un rapporto di massa di 1:4). Al contrario, le binarie retrograde rimangono fissi al centro dell'ospite. Il tasso di contrazione delle binarie è due volte più rapido quando il CoM del sistema mostra un moto orbitale netto, essendo promosso da un ripopolamento più efficace del “loss cone”. Ho sviluppato un modello che descrive le oscillazioni del CoM delle binarie prograde. La mia interpretazione è che il guadagno di momento angolare del CoM per unità di tempo correla con il momento angolare interno della binaria stessa, risultando in un ampia orbita attorno al centro della galassia primaria innescata dalle interazioni stellari intorno al momento della formazione della binaria. Tuttavia, l'ulteriore aumento del momento angolare è alla fine soppresso dall'impatto dell'att, According to the hierarchical formation paradigm, galaxies form through mergers of smaller entities and super massive black holes (SMBHs), if present, tend to shrink to the center where they may form binary systems. The formation and evolution of SMBH binaries, and in particular of the coalescence timescale, is particularly relevant for current and future facilities aimed at detecting the gravitational-wave signal produced by the SMBH close to coalescence. In the first part of my thesis, we explore the impact of the rotation of the stellar host on the efficacy of bound binary hardening, driven by three-body stellar interactions. In line with previous investigations, we observe that the center of mass (CoM) of a prograde super massive black hole binary (SMBHB) within a rotating environment starts moving around the system’s center on nearly circular orbits shortly after the formation of a bound SMBHB. In our simulations, the oscillation radius is approximately 0.25 (0.1) times the binary influence radius for equal-mass SMBHBs (SMBHBs with a mass ratio of 1:4). Conversely, retrograde binaries remain fixed at the center of the host. The binary shrinking rate is twice as rapid when the binary CoM exhibits net orbital motion, facilitated by a more effective repopulation of the loss cone, even in our spherical stellar systems. We develop a model that captures the CoM oscillations of prograde binaries. We posit that the gain in CoM angular momentum per unit time correlates with the internal angular momentum of the binary, resulting in the majority of the displacement being triggered by stellar interactions around the time of formation of a bound SMBHB. However, the subsequent enhancement of angular momentum is ultimately suppressed by the impact of dynamical friction. In the second part of my thesis I investigate minor galactic merger, partic- ularly focusing on the effect of tidal forces in eroding the satellite mass. While most of the studies targeting this process are ba

- Abstract
La scoperta del segnale di onda gravitazionale GW170817, compatibile con un sistema di stelle di neutroni binarie, da parte della collaborazione LIGO e Virgo, insieme all'identificazione successiva delle sue controparti elettromagnetiche multi-lunghezza d'onda, ha segnato l'inizio dell'era dell'astronomia multi-messaggera. In particolare, è stata rilevata anche una seconda fusione di stelle di neutroni binarie, GW190425, che tuttavia non ha presentato alcun corrispondente elettromagnetico associato. Anche le fusioni tra buco nero e stella di neutroni hanno il potenziale di produrre emissioni elettromagnetiche, ma, sebbene già rilevate attraverso i loro segnali di onde gravitazionali, fino ad oggi nessuna controparte è stata associata a questi eventi. Durante il terzo ciclo di osservazione della rete di rilevatori di onde gravitazionali O3 e la fase iniziale del quarto ciclo O4a, sono state condotte ampie campagne di follow-up elettromagnetico. Nonostante significativi investimenti in risorse osservative, questi sforzi hanno principalmente prodotto solo contaminanti, in particolare supernovae Ia, fornendo informazioni limitate sulle proprietà delle binarie gravitazionali. Man mano che procediamo verso le fasi avanzate del ciclo osservativo O4 e O5, e con lo sviluppo di interferometri di onde gravitazionali di terza generazione come Einstein Telescope e Cosmic Explorer, la necessità di previsioni precise diventa sempre più critica. Queste previsioni sono essenziali per affinare le strategie di follow-up per massimizzare la probabilità di rilevare fenomeni transitori elettromagnetici associati a questi eventi. Questa tesi di dottorato presenta una proiezione realistica del numero e delle caratteristiche delle fusioni di stelle di neutroni e fusioni buco nero-stella di neutroni che si prevede siano osservabili come fonti multi-messaggere durante O4, O5 e dai rilevatori di terza generazione. L'obiettivo è fornire una guida strategica per ottimizzare gli approcci, The discovery of the gravitational wave signal GW170817, compatible with a binary neutron star system, by the LIGO and Virgo collaboration, along with the subsequent identification of its multi-wavelength electromagnetic counterparts, marked the beginning of the multi-messenger astronomy era. Notably, a second binary neutron star merger, GW190425, was also detected, yet it did not present any associated electromagnetic counterpart. Even black hole-neutron star mergers have the potential to produce electromagnetic emissions, but, although already detected through their GW signals, no electromagnetic counterpart has been associated with these events to date. During the third observing run of the gravitational wave detectors network O3 and the initial phase of the fourth run O4a, extensive electromagnetic follow-up campaigns were conducted. Despite significant investment in observational resources, these efforts predominantly yielded only contaminants, particularly supernovae Ia, providing limited insights into the properties of the gravitational wave-emitting binaries. As we progress towards the later stages of observing run O4, the forthcoming O5, and with the development of third-generation gravitational wave interferometers like the Einstein Telescope and Cosmic Explorer, the need for precise predictions becomes increasingly critical. These predictions are essential for refining follow-up strategies to maximize the likelihood of detecting associated, rapidly fading transient phenomena. This doctoral thesis presents a realistic projection of the number and characteristics of binary neutron star and black hole-neutron star mergers expected to be observable as multi-messenger sources during O4, O5, and by third-generation detectors. The objective is to provide strategic guidance for optimizing observational approaches. These predictions are grounded in a population synthesis model that incorporates various elements: the gravitational wave signal-to-noise ratio, inferr

Problem: Therapeutic planning strategies have been developed to enhance the effectiveness of cancer drugs. Nevertheless, their performance is highly limited by the inefficient biological representativeness of predictive tumor growth models, which hinders their translation to clinical practice., Objective: This study proposes a disruptive approach to oncology based on nature-inspired control using realistic Black Hole physical laws, in which tumor masses are trapped to experience attraction dynamics on their path to complete remission or to become a chronic disease. This control method is designed to operate independently of individual patient idiosyncrasies, including high tumor heterogeneities and highly uncertain tumor dynamics, making it a promising avenue for advancing beyond the limitations of the traditional survival probabilistic paradigm., Design: Here, we provide a multifaceted study of chemotherapy therapeutic planning that includes: (1) the design of a pioneering controller algorithm based on physical laws found in the Black Holes; (2) investigation of the ability of this controller algorithm to ensure stable equilibrium treatments; and (3) simulation tests concerning tumor volume dynamics using drugs with significantly different pharmacokinetics (Cyclophosphamide and Atezolizumab), tumor volumes (200 mm
3 and 12 732 mm3 ) and modeling characterizations (Gompertzian and Logistic tumor growth models)., Results: Our results highlight the ability of this new astrophysical-inspired control algorithm to perform effective chemotherapy treatments for multiple tumor-treatment scenarios, including tumor resistance to chemotherapy, clinical scenarios modelled by time-dependent parameters, and highly uncertain tumor dynamics., Conclusions: Our findings provide strong evidence that cancer therapy inspired by phenomena found in black holes can emerge as a disruptive paradigm. This opens new high-impacting research directions, exploring synergies between astrophysical-inspired control algorithms and Artificial Intelligence applied to advanced personalized cancer therapeutics., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2024 The Authors.

This article is the beginning of a reexpresson, and partial revision, of my book Black Light. The questions that I discuss in this article are listed in the below list of sections. In Sections 7, 8, 27, and 28, I discuss my discovery of black light. The theoretical discovery of black light (that is, the thought experimental discovery of black light): The black spatial field in, for example, a “dark” room is actually, I argue, black light; and it is emitted from everything in the spatial field of the room (that is, the relatively empty space, and all objects). If, hypothetically, the black light in the above room was removed, we, when we would look into the spatial field of the room, would be blind, despite that we have the capacity to see. The observational discovery of black light: There is no such thing as a “colorless” visual field for observers: A “colorless” visual field would be a visual field of blindness for observers, despite that they have vision, and that their eyes would be open. The black visual field is not, as is commonly stated, “the absence of photons,” “the absence of visible light,” and the, as such, absence of color: If it were, then it would be “colorless” (that is, not black), and, as such, a visual field of blindness for observers. The experimental confirmation of black light via neurophysics: In Section 28, I demonstrate that particular EEG experimentation that was done on test-subjects in various conditions provides evidence or proof that the black of the black visual field that strikes our retinas is black light.

These quantities are usually hard to compute but Ryu-Takayanagi (RT) and Hubeny-Rangamani-Takayanagi (HRT) proposals allow us to find the same quantities using calculations in general relativity. We will introduce main concepts of holography, quantum information and conformal field theory that will be used to derive the results of this thesis. In the first part of the thesis, we explicitly compute entanglement entropy of the rotating BTZ black hole by directly applying HRT proposal and finding lengths of spacelike geodesics. Rényi entropy of thermal state perturbed by a local quantum quench is computed by mapping correlators on two glued cylinders to the plane for field theory containing a single free boson and for 2d CFTs in the large c limit. We consider Thermofield Double State (TFD) which is an entangled state in direct product of two 2D CFTs. It is conjectured to be holographically equivalent to the eternal BTZ black hole. TFD state is perturbed by a local quench in one CFT and mutual information between two intervals in two CFTs is computed. We find when mutual information vanishes and interpret this as scrambling time, i.e. time scale required for the system to thermalize. This field theory result is modelled with a massive free falling particle in the BTZ black hole. We have computed the back-reaction of the particle on the metric of BTZ and used RT proposal to find holographic entanglement entropy. Finally, we generalize this calculation to the case of rotating BTZ with inner and outer horizons. It is dual to the CFT with different temperatures for left and right moving modes. We calculate mutual information and scrambling time and find exact agreement between results in the gravity and those in the CFT.
