Bound-state solutions for the charged Dirac oscillator in a rotating frame in the Bonnor-Melvin-Lambda spacetime

Abstract

In this paper, we determine the relativistic bound-state solutions for the charged (DO) Dirac oscillator in a rotating frame in the Bonnor-Melvin-Lambda spacetime in $(2+1)$-dimensions, where such solutions are given by the two-component normalizable Dirac spinor and by the relativistic energy spectrum. To analytically solve our problem, we consider two approximations, where the first is that the cosmological constant is very small (conical approximation), and the second is that the linear velocity of the rotating frame is much less than the speed of light (slow rotation regime). After solving a second-order differential equation, we obtain a generalized Laguerre equation, whose solutions are the generalized Laguerre polynomials. Consequently, we obtain the energy spectrum, which is quantized in terms of the radial and total magnetic quantum numbers $n$ and $m_j$, and depends on the angular frequency $\omega$ (describes the DO), cyclotron frequency $\omega_c$ (describes the external magnetic field), angular velocity $\Omega$ (describes the rotating frame), spin parameter $s$ (describes the ``spin''), spinorial parameter $u$ (describes the components of the spinor), effective rest mass $m_{eff}$ (describes the rest mass modified by the spin-rotation coupling), and on a real parameter $\sigma$ and cosmological constant $\Lambda$ (describes the Bonnor-Melvin-Lambda spacetime). In particular, we note that this spectrum is asymmetrical (due to $\Omega$) and has its degeneracy broken (due to $\sigma$ and $\Lambda$). Besides, we also graphically analyze the behavior of the spectrum and of the probability density as a function of the parameters of the system for different values of $n$ and $m_j$.

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.
