Perturbations and greybody bounds of Euler-Heisenberg black holes surrounded by perfect fluid dark matter

Abstract

We investigate the propagation of massless fields with spins $s=0$, $s=1$, and $s=1/2$ in the spacetime of an Euler-Heisenberg (EH) black hole surrounded by perfect fluid dark matter (PFDM). This background incorporates both the nonlinear electrodynamic correction associated with the EH effective theory and the logarithmic contribution induced by the surrounding dark matter distribution. After deriving the corresponding Schr\"odinger-like radial equations, we construct the effective potentials for scalar, electromagnetic, and Dirac perturbations and analyze how they are modified by the black hole charge, the EH parameter, and the PFDM parameter. The greybody factors are estimated through the rigorous Boonserm-Visser lower-bound method, and the associated partial absorption cross sections are obtained for different spin sectors using these bounds. Our results show that the nonlinear electrodynamic and dark matter parameters significantly deform the effective potential barrier, leading to potentially distinguishable changes in the transmission probabilities and absorption spectra within the model. In particular, the greybody lower bounds increase monotonically with the frequency and approach the high-frequency limit, while their low-frequency behavior is strongly affected by the geometry and by the spin of the perturbing field. Moreover, we utilize the greybody lower bound to calculate the energy emission rate. Finally, we make comparisons with the Schwarzschild, Reissner-Nordstr\"om, and pure EH limits, showing that the combined EH+PFDM background produces distinguishable corrections to black-hole scattering within the model. These results highlight greybody bounds as sensitive diagnostic probes of nonlinear electrodynamic effects and dark matter halos around compact objects.

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.
