Abstract

In this paper we construct an exact spherically symmetric black hole solution with a power Yang-Mills (YM) source in the context of $4D$ Einstein Gauss-Bonnet gravity ($4D$ EGB). We choose our source as $(F_{\mu\nu}^{(a)}F^{\mu\nu(a)})^q$, where $q$ is an arbitrary positive real number. Thereafter we study the horizon structure, thermodynamic issues like thermal stability and black hole phase transition of this black hole solution. Our focus here is to analyse the black hole space-time under the net non-linear effect coming both from the gravitational sector (due to Gauss-Bonnet term) as well as from the gauge fields (the power of Yang-Mills field invariant) in $4$-dimensions. We evaluate some extended thermodynamic quantities such as pressure, temperature, entropy in order to establish the form of the Smarr formula and the first law of thermodynamics. The behaviour of heat capacity as a function of horizon radius is thoroughly studied to understand the thermal stability of the black hole solution. An interesting phenomena of existence/ absence of thermal phase transition occur due to the nonlinearity of YM source. For some values of the parameters, we find that the solution exhibits a first-order phase transition, like a van der Waals fluid. In addition, we also verify Maxwell's equal area law numerically by crucial analysis of Gibbs free energy as a function of temperature. Moreover, the critical exponents are derived and showed the universality class of the scaling behaviour of thermodynamic quantities near criticality.

Electrovacuum Black Hole Uniqueness

We prove the black hole uniqueness conjecture in the axially symmetric, stationary, electrovacuum setting, subject to the refined asymptotic analysis of the associated singular harmonic maps, which includes an analyticity hypothesis at the axes. More precisely, it is shown that any asymptotically flat solution of the Einstein--Maxwell equations in this class, with more than one black hole horizon component is either: Majumdar--Papapetrou, up to a duality rotation, in which case all logarithmic angle defects vanish, or every finite axis rod logarithmic angle defect is strictly negative and hence every interaction force is strictly attractive. The proof extends the singular harmonic map method used for vacuum Kerr uniqueness in [18].

Constraining Modified Mass-to-Horizon Cosmology Through Primordial Inflationary Observables

We investigate slow-roll inflation in a modified cosmological framework inspired by a generalized mass-to-horizon relation (MHR), $M=\gamma {c^2 L^n}/{G}$, where $n$ is a real parameter and $\gamma$ a dimensional constant. Using Padmanabhan's emergence paradigm, we derive the modified Friedmann equations for a flat FRW universe and analyze the dynamics of a canonical scalar field (inflaton) under the slow-roll approximation. We study the resulting inflationary phenomenology for power-law and Starobinsky potentials. For power-law potentials, the MHR modification fails to reconcile these models with current CMB constraints on $r$ and $n_s$. In contrast, Starobinsky inflation exhibits significant sensitivity to deviations from $n=1$. A perturbative analysis ($n=1+\Delta$) yields corrections to inflationary observables. We observe that the scalar power-spectrum normalization, under a fixed-Starobinsky prescription, imposes the stringent constraint $0.960 \lesssim n \lesssim 1.040$ for $N=60$ efolds. This is considerably tighter than spectral-index bounds. Our results establish inflation, particularly Starobinsky-like models, as a sensitive probe of generalized horizon thermodynamics and departures from standard MHR scaling.

Improving the Sensitivity of Gravitational Wave Detection with Weighted Conformal Prediction

In the last decade, kilometre-scale interferometric gravitational-wave detectors have observed hundreds of compact binary mergers, the majority of which are binary black holes. However, the data are noise-dominated, and multiple independent search algorithms (pipelines) are used to enhance sensitivity and improve robustness. Rather than the standard approach of selecting the most significant pipeline output, we combine the outputs from all pipelines using a conformal prediction-based framework to provide statistically rigorous confidence estimates for candidate events. While combining pipelines improves sensitivity and ranking robustness, it requires a principled statistical framework that remains valid as data properties evolve across observing runs. A key challenge is distribution shifts between simulated datasets used for training and calibration and the real, unlabelled, observations used for testing, which can invalidate coverage guarantees and bias confidence estimates. In this work, we address this challenge by incorporating likelihood-ratio reweighting into our conformal prediction framework to account for covariate shift. Using mock datasets containing simulated signals, we demonstrate that weighted conformal prediction restores well-calibrated coverage under covariate shift and increases the confidence of events near the detection threshold, recovering true signals that would otherwise be missed.
