Quasinormal Modes, Partial Transmission Probabilities, and Hod's Conjecture of Charged Black Holes in Perfect Fluid Dark Matter within Kalb-Ramond Gravity

Abstract

Within the Kalb-Ramond field-induced Lorentz-violating gravity, we investigate the perturbation dynamics and quasinormal mode (QNM) spectra of a charged black hole immersed in perfect fluid dark matter. The background spacetime is characterized by the Lorentz-violating parameter tau, the electric charge Q/M, and the dark matter parameter lambda/M. Owing to the non-zero vacuum expectation value of the KR field, the metric function approaches 1/(1-tau) at infinity instead of 1, rendering the spacetime non-asymptotically flat. Under the test-field approximation, the equations of motion for three types of perturbations (scalar, electromagnetic, and axial gravitational) are reduced to Schrodinger-type radial equations with single-peak effective potentials. The QNM frequencies are cross-validated using the sixth-order WKB method and the time-domain Prony method, while the partial transmission probabilities are computed within the WKB scattering framework. Parameter scans show that tau exerts the strongest influence on the QNM spectrum, followed by lambda/M, with Q/M having the weakest effect; the same ordering holds for the partial transmission probabilities. Under the same parameters, the QNM frequencies of the three perturbations follow the order scalar > electromagnetic > gravitational, whereas the transmission probabilities exhibit the reverse order, reflecting the different impact of the effective potential height on the oscillation frequency and on the transmission probability. The Hod conjecture |Im(omega)| <= pi T_H holds throughout the parameter range examined.

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.
