$k-$deformed Schwarzschild AdS black strings

Abstract

Considering a cylindrically symmetric spacetime, a novel exact $κ$-deformed Schwarzschild-AdS black string solution is derived in General Relativity in the presence of a negative cosmological constant. The geometric properties of the resulting solution are systematically investigated by computing the Ricci and Kretschmann curvature scalars. The analysis reveals the existence of a curvature singularity at the origin, which remains enclosed by an event horizon provided that the $κ$-deformation parameter satisfies a specific constraint. Subsequently, the influence of various model parameters on the horizon structure and configuration is examined in detail. The thermodynamic properties of these black strings are thoroughly evaluated; in this regard, the Hawking temperature, entropy, mass, isobaric heat capacity, and Gibbs free energy are self-consistently extracted. The effects of the parameters, particularly the $κ$-deformation parameter, on these thermodynamic quantities are comprehensively explored. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that these state variables fundamentally satisfy the extended first law of black hole thermodynamics and yield a modified Smarr relation. Finally, the temporal profile of the Hawking radiation is probed via the dimensionless sparsity parameter, through which the impacts of the underlying parameters on the quantum emission rate are systematically analyzed.

Black hole binaries in shift-symmetric Einstein-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity experience a slower merger phase

In shift-symmetric Einstein-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity, stationary black holes have a non-vanishing scalar charge. During the inspiral, the phase evolution is modified by several effects,primarily an additional scalar dipole radiation, which enters at -1PN order. Including corrections up to 2PN, this effect accelerates the inspiral when compared to general relativity, but changes in the conservative dynamics may do the opposite. Using fully non-linear numerical simulations of quasi-circular, comparable mass binaries, we characterize the late stages of the orbital dynamics. We find that the overall effect is still an accelerated merger phase for the modified gravity case, but noticeably less than predicted by PN alone, which we relate to the conservative dynamics, showing that at the late inspiral stage more energy must be emitted in scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity to induce a given change in frequency. In longer signals, this may lead to a distinctive frequency evolution relative to general relativity as the binary approaches merger, but its effect close to merger is to suppress the difference with GR. This work suggests we may need to revisit existing constraints on the theory that are obtained assuming PN approximations apply up to merger, or based on order by order approximations that neglect backreaction effects on the metric, and shows the importance of including non-linear effects that modify the gravitational sector in the strong field regime.

Geometry as Thermodynamics:Entropy Stationarity and Horizon Residues

Thermodynamic descriptions of gravity involve both variational conditions for spacetime dynamics and analytic structures associated with horizons. We examine their relation while keeping their assumptions distinct. First, we present an explicit derivation of the Einstein equation from the established null-vector entropy functional, including the null constraint, the matter term, and the integration constant associated with the cosmological constant. Second, for an analytic static spherical geometry with a nondegenerate Killing horizon, we define a meromorphic radial one-form whose residue is the inverse of twice the surface gravity. Euclidean regularity then fixes the Hawking temperature. Combining this residue with the Einstein--Hilbert Noether charge gives a normalized contour representation of the Wald entropy. The construction reproduces the Schwarzschild temperature, entropy, and Smarr relation, but does not constitute an independent microscopic derivation of the area law. We establish the limits of a stronger identification between pole structure and dynamics: an asymptotically flat family can retain the Schwarzschild horizon residue, area, surface gravity, and mass while violating the vacuum Einstein equation, and an extremal charged solution possesses a higher-order pole. We also show why exponentiating an unspecified entropy functional does not produce a universal entropy residue. The resulting framework separates entropy stationarity, horizon analyticity, and charge normalization, providing explicit consistency tests for further thermodynamic interpretations of gravitational singularities.

Propagation delays and regional intensity changes in lensed hotspot images

Propagation delays cause an image recorded at a single observer time to combine radiation emitted at different stages of the source evolution. Comparable changes in total intensity can accompany distinct and even opposite changes in apparent image size. Using regional intensities, centroids, and covariances, we apply the law of total covariance to separate changes in regional intensity weights from changes in internal widths and centroid separation. Ray tracing simulations of a finite Gaussian hotspot moving along a prescribed strong field trajectory show two events with comparable attenuation in screen integrated intensity but opposite changes in second moment size. In the contracting event, the regional weights move away from balance; in the expanding event, they move toward balance even as the centroids approach each other. Differential propagation delays therefore drive these opposite size responses by redistributing intensity between spatially separated image regions.
