Mannheim--Kazanas Black Holes: Horizons, Temperatures and Thermodynamics

Static black holes in conformal Weyl gravity differ from their Einstein counterparts in a simple but important way: the Mannheim--Kazanas geometry is encoded in a Bach-flat lapse function whose radial dependence is richer than that of Schwarzschild--de Sitter. We study the de Sitter branch of this solution in the Schwarzschild gauge, keeping the characteristic linear term together with the quadratic de Sitter term. In the branch continuously connected to the positive-mass Schwarzschild--de Sitter spacetime, a regular static region between a black-hole horizon and a cosmological horizon exists precisely when \[ -\frac{1}{3}<βγ<\frac{2}{3}, \qquad 0<κ<\frac{1+3βγ}{27β^{2}}. \] In this window the singularity at the origin is hidden, the two positive horizons obey $0<r_b<3β<r_c$, and the limiting endpoint is the Nariai geometry. The thermodynamic interpretation is subtler than the root structure: the two horizons generally have different temperatures, and the static patch has no asymptotic region that would select a unique normalization of time. We therefore compare the Killing, Bousso--Hawking normalized, Tolman local, and effective two-horizon temperature conventions, and we compute the corresponding Wald entropy for the pure Weyl-squared action. The result is a local horizon thermodynamic description that keeps the geometric facts separate from the ensemble-dependent choices needed for any global first law.

Gravitational perturbations of a regular T-duality inspired black hole: Quasinormal modes, excitation factors, and time-domain evolution

We study axial gravitational perturbations of the neutral regular black hole generated by a non-local, T-duality-inspired zero-point length and the associated gravitational self-energy. In this geometry, the usual point source is replaced by a regular core, and the zero-point length controls the departure from the Schwarzschild limit. We compute the fundamental quasinormal modes and several overtones using high-order WKB--Padé methods, and we verify the dominant mode via direct time-domain evolution. When the zero-point length is turned on, the real parts of the ADM-scaled frequencies increase for the gravitational modes with $\ell=2,3,4$, so the ringdown oscillates faster than in the Schwarzschild limit. The damping rates change more gradually: they initially increase slightly and then decrease near the largest deformation values considered here. This behavior is consistent with the effective potential, whose barrier becomes higher as the deformation parameter increases. We also compute the corresponding excitation factors and find that their magnitudes vary much less strongly than the quasinormal frequencies.

Bound, Scattering, and Resonance States of the Symmetric Woods--Saxon Potential in Dunkl Quantum Mechanic

We present the first unified analytical description of the bound, scattering, and Gamow (metastable) resonance states of the one-dimensional symmetric Woods--Saxon potential within the framework of Dunkl quantum mechanics, establishing a single analytical framework that consistently describes all physically relevant spectral regimes. The Dunkl deformation introduces a reflection-sector-dependent inverse-square interaction that precludes a direct analytical treatment of the corresponding Schrödinger equation. By employing a Pekeris-type approximation, the problem is transformed into a hypergeometric differential equation, enabling the derivation of analytical wave functions, bound-state quantization conditions, scattering amplitudes, and Gamow resonance solutions within a unified formalism. The results reveal that the Dunkl deformation fundamentally modifies the system's spectral properties by generating a reflection-sector-dependent splitting of the bound-state spectrum, along with quantitative changes in the reflection and transmission probabilities. The narrow transmission peaks are shown to originate from long-lived Gamow resonance states, whose complex energies, decay widths, and lifetimes are determined through analytic continuation into the complex-energy plane. In the limit of vanishing Dunkl deformation, the conventional Woods--Saxon results are fully recovered, confirming the consistency of the proposed formalism. The proposed analytical framework provides a versatile approach for investigating finite-range potentials in Dunkl quantum mechanics and opens the way to systematic studies of reflection-deformed quantum systems beyond the Woods--Saxon interaction.

Hawking Emission from Black Holes Evaporating toward Wormholes and the Accuracy of the WKB Approximation

We revisit Hawking radiation from two black-hole families that can approach macroscopic wormhole configurations: the Simpson--Visser black-bounce geometry and the Casadio--Fabbri--Mazzacurati braneworld geometry. The earlier analysis of these backgrounds relied on WKB greybody factors. Here we replace that approximation by direct numerical scattering for the photon and massless Dirac channels and then recompute the emission spectra and integrated luminosities. The qualitative picture remains the same: as the wormhole endpoint is approached the black holes cool, the total flux is strongly suppressed, and the residual emission becomes increasingly fermion dominated. The quantitative picture, however, changes substantially. Close to the Schwarzschild limit the WKB estimates are reasonably accurate, but far from that limit the error can be large, and near the cold endpoint it can reach orders of magnitude. In particular, the WKB calculation can substantially overestimate the remaining luminosity precisely in the regime where the evaporation rate is most sensitive to the low-frequency tail of the greybody factors. In a fixed-parameter Simpson--Visser half-decay estimate, the direct-greybody luminosities increase the WKB lifetime coefficient by a factor of about 85. These results show that reliable evaporation rates for black holes evolving toward wormhole-like endpoints require direct numerical greybody factors rather than barrier-top WKB estimates alone.

Greybody Factors, Absorption Cross Sections and Hawking Radiation of Holonomy-Corrected Schwarzschild Black Holes

We study greybody factors, absorption cross sections and Hawking energy-emission rates for minimally coupled massless scalar, electromagnetic and massless Dirac test fields on the loop-quantum-gravity-inspired holonomy-corrected Schwarzschild black hole. The geometry is controlled by a dimensionless holonomy parameter, and the radial wave equations are solved by direct numerical integration with first- and sixth-order WKB estimates as complementary checks. The scalar, electromagnetic and Dirac channels respond differently: the dominant scalar mode becomes more transparent, the electromagnetic threshold shifts slightly upward, and the dominant Dirac mode is only mildly modified. The scalar absorption cross section retains the universal low-frequency limit, the electromagnetic cross section changes mainly in the infrared, and the Dirac cross section develops a strongly suppressed low-frequency tail. Since the Hawking temperature falls monotonically, thermal suppression dominates the radiative output. Thus the holonomy correction enhances low-lying scalar transmission but suppresses Hawking radiation overall, with the electromagnetic sector most strongly quenched and the fermionic sector dominant once $α$ is appreciable.

Thermodynamic topology of dyonic AdS black holes with quasitopological electromagnetism in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity

In this study, we investigate the thermodynamic topology of the high-dimensional dyonic AdS black holes with quasitopological electromagnetism in the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet background. We first examine the topological charge connected to the critical point and find that the two conventional critical points $CP_{1},CP_{2}$ of the black hole are physical critical point, and the novel critical point $CP_{3}$ that lacks the capability to minimize the Gibbs free energy ($α=0.5$). The critical points $CP_{1}$ and $CP_{2}$ are observed to occur at the maximum extreme points of temperature in the isobaric curve, while the critical point $CP_{3}$, emerges at the minimum extreme points of temperature. Furthermore, the number of phases at the novel critical point exhibits an upward trend, followed by a subsequent decline at the conventional critical points. With the increase of the coupling constant ($α= 1$), although the system has three critical points, only the conventional $CP_{1}$ is a (physical) critical point, and the conventional $CP_{2}$ serves as the phase annihilation point. This means that the coupling constant $α$ has significant impact on the phase structure. Additionally, we regard dyonic AdS black holes as a topological defect within the thermodynamic space, our findings indicate that alterations in pressure can result in the system exhibiting distinct points of generation and annihilation. However, the total topological number of black holes in different dimensions is $1$, the system shares a similar topological classification as the charged RN-AdS black holes. The discovery we have made provides a crucial component in understanding the thermodynamic topology of dyonic AdS black holes.

Grey-Body Factors and Thermodynamics of Asymptotically de Sitter Black Holes in Generalized Proca Theory

Generalized Proca theory supplements gravity with a massive vector field whose derivative self-interactions can support black holes carrying primary vector hair. In the asymptotically de Sitter branch considered here, the de Sitter scale is effective: it is generated by the vector sector rather than imposed through a bare cosmological-constant term. We compute grey-body factors and effective absorption cross-sections for massive scalar, electromagnetic, and massless Dirac test fields on this background. The transmission curves are obtained from a sixth-order WKB barrier calculation and are compared with the quasinormal-mode reconstruction; the two descriptions mostly agree, with small visible differences at lower mutlipoles. Increasing the scalar mass raises and broadens the scalar barrier, suppresses transmission at fixed frequency, and shifts efficient transmission to higher frequencies. The couplings considerably affect the grey-body factors and black hole thermodynamics.

Scalar, electromagnetic, and Dirac perturbations of regular black holes constituting primordial dark matter

We study massless scalar, electromagnetic, and Dirac perturbations of the exact asymptotically flat regular black hole supported by a phantom Dirac--Born--Infeld scalar. Using the Padé-improved WKB method, with a time-domain Prony check for the scalar fundamental mode, we compute representative quasinormal frequencies and find that larger regularity shifts the spectrum toward smaller oscillation frequencies and damping rates, whereas the quality factor changes only weakly. The spectral shifts remain well above the estimated numerical uncertainty, demonstrating that the DBI regularity scale leaves a robust spin-dependent imprint on ringdown.

Bardeen spacetime as quantum corrected black hole: Grey-body factors and quasinormal modes of gravitational perturbations

We study axial gravitational perturbations of the asymptotically flat Bardeen spacetime interpreted as a string-T-duality-inspired quantum-corrected Schwarzschild black hole. Starting from the anisotropic-fluid background, we derive the Regge--Wheeler-type master equation and the corresponding effective potential, and compute quasinormal modes with high-order WKB--Padé and time-domain methods. We show that increasing the quantum-correction scale $\ell_0$ raises and shifts the barrier inward, causing the black hole to ring at higher frequencies and decay more slowly. The same deformation suppresses low-frequency transmission, shifts the onset of grey-body factors to larger frequencies, and reorganizes the partial and total absorption cross-sections. Overall, the results identify a clear and consistent imprint of short-distance regularization on both ringdown and scattering observables.

A First-Order Eikonal Framework for Quasinormal Modes, Shadows, Strong Lensing, and Grey-Body Factors in a Scalarized Black-Hole Metric

We construct an analytic geodesic-optics description of quasinormal ringing, black-hole shadows, strong lensing, and grey-body factors for the static spherical metric introduced in [Bakopoulos, et. al. arXiv:2310.11919]. Working in a weak-hair regime, we derive closed first-order formulas for the photon-sphere radius, orbital frequency, and Lyapunov exponent. These invariants are then employed within the Schutz--Will WKB approach to obtain eikonal quasinormal frequencies, mapped to shadow and strong-deflection observables through exact identities for static spherical geometries, and used to build a closed analytic form for the transmission probability. At leading eikonal order, these relations are controlled by null geodesics and are therefore spin-universal for test scalar/electromagnetic/gravitational sectors, up to subleading corrections. Besides the standard ringdown--shadow correspondence, we present three additional results: (i) an explicit quality-factor correction, (ii) limiting core-size expansions that show when damping ratios are nearly insensitive to the scalarized core, and (iii) a comparative study of grey-body factors for moderate multipoles and several core-size ratios. The resulting construction provides a concise one-parameter connection from the metric function to ringdown, lensing, and scattering observables.

Two types of quasinormal modes of Casadio-Fabbri-Mazzacurati brane-world black holes

Using the convergent Leaver method, we investigate the quasinormal modes of a massive scalar field propagating in the background of the Casadio--Fabbri--Mazzacurati (CFM) brane-world black hole. We show that the spectrum exhibits two distinct types of modes, depending on their behavior as the field mass increases. In one class, the real oscillation frequency decreases and eventually approaches zero, while in the other the damping rate tends to vanish. When either the real or imaginary part of the frequency reaches zero, the corresponding mode disappears from the spectrum, and the first overtone replaces it. The emergence of modes with a vanishing real part at certain critical values of the field mass is a distinctive feature of the CFM spectrum.

Long-lived quasinormal modes, shadows and particle motion in four-dimensional quasi-topological gravity

We investigate massive scalar perturbations and several characteristics of particle motion in the spacetime of regular black holes arising in four-dimensional quasi-topological gravity. Quasinormal modes are computed using high-order WKB approximations with Padé resummation and verified through time-domain integration. For moderate values of the scalar-field mass, the time-domain profiles confirm the WKB results with excellent accuracy. As the mass increases, the damping rate decreases substantially, indicating the approach to the quasi-resonant regime of long-lived modes. For sufficiently large masses, the late-time signal becomes dominated by oscillatory power-law tails, which mask the quasi-resonant mode in the time-domain profile. In addition, we analyze photon motion and circular geodesics, including the photon-sphere radius, shadow size, Lyapunov exponent, and ISCO characteristics. These quantities exhibit only moderate deviations from their Schwarzschild values, unlike the Hawking temperature of the black hole.

Telling tails and quasi-resonances in the vicinity of Dymnikova regular black hole

We investigate quasinormal modes, late-time tails, and grey-body factors for massive scalar perturbations in the background of the Dymnikova regular black hole. By applying both the time-domain integration and the WKB method with Padé improvements, we show that the spectrum of massive fields differs qualitatively from the massless case. The oscillation frequency of the dominant mode grows with the field mass $μ$, while the damping rate decreases, suggesting the existence of quasi-resonances at sufficiently large $μ$. In the time domain, the late-time signal exhibits oscillatory tails with a power-law envelope, whose decay rate matches analytic expectations. Grey-body factors are also computed, showing strong suppression of radiation when mass is increased. Taken together, these results indicate that massive fields provide distinctive signatures of regular black holes and may serve as probes of near-horizon quantum corrections in the Dymnikova geometry.

Quasinormal Modes of a Massive Scalar Field in 4D Einstein--Gauss--Bonnet Black Hole Spacetimes

We analyze quasinormal modes, grey-body factors, and absorption cross-sections of a massive scalar field in four-dimensional Einstein--Gauss--Bonnet black-hole spacetimes within a stability-constrained coupling window. High-order WKB-Padé spectra show that increasing field mass typically reduces damping and drives the system toward long-lived, quasi-resonant behavior. The scattering sector follows the same potential-barrier physics: larger effective barriers suppress transmission and low-frequency absorption, while the Gauss--Bonnet coupling has a comparatively mild impact over the stable range. These results provide a compact baseline for massive-field spectroscopy in higher-curvature black-hole backgrounds.

Particle Motion in Regular Black Hole Spacetimes Supported by a Galactic Halo

We investigate particle motion in regular and asymptotically flat black hole spacetimes supported by Dehnen-type dark-matter halos. Two analytic models are analyzed, allowing a systematic study of circular geodesics, photon-sphere properties, shadow radius, Lyapunov exponent, ISCO frequency, binding energy, and Hawking temperature. The corrected numerical results show that the halo scale parameter can significantly modify strong-field observables. In both models, for moderate density slopes, increasing the halo parameter reduces characteristic radii while enhancing orbital instability and accretion efficiency. For steeper density falloff, however, deviations from the Schwarzschild case remain small. These results demonstrate that halo-induced modifications of optical and dynamical black hole signatures are strongly controlled by the density profile parameters.

Ringing Regularity: Gravitational Perturbations and Quasinormal Modes of Einasto-Supported Black Holes

We investigate axial gravitational perturbations and quasinormal modes of regular black holes supported by an Einasto distribution of matter. Halo matter not only removes the central singularity but also modifies the quasinormal spectrum. We show that the resulting quasinormal spectrum deviates systematically from the Schwarzschild case, with shifts in both oscillation frequencies and damping rates that grow with the halo scale parameter and the Einasto index. In near-extremal configurations, the damping rate can be significantly suppressed, leading to long-lived modes. The effects of regularity and environmental factors on the spectrum are found to be substantially larger than the estimated numerical uncertainty, as confirmed independently by high-order WKB calculations with Padé resummation and time-domain integration.

Grey-body factors and absorption cross-sections of scalar and Dirac fields in the vicinity of dilaton-de Sitter black hole

We investigate the propagation of a massive scalar field and a massless Dirac field in the geometry of a dilaton--de Sitter black hole. Starting from the covariant perturbation equations, we present the corresponding effective potentials and analyze their dependence on the dilaton charge, field mass, and cosmological constant. Using the WKB approximation, we compute the grey-body factors and study the associated absorption cross-sections. The results show that increasing the field mass or dilaton charge raises the effective potential barrier, leading to a suppression of transmission at low frequencies, while a larger cosmological constant lowers the barrier and enhances transmission. The partial absorption cross-sections for different multipole numbers display the expected oscillatory structure, with the lowest multipoles dominating at small frequencies. After summation over multipoles, the oscillations average out and the total cross-section interpolates between strong suppression in the infrared regime and the geometric capture limit at high frequencies. These findings provide a systematic description of scattering and absorption properties of dilaton--de Sitter black holes for both scalar and fermionic perturbations.

Gravitational quasinormal modes of Dymnikova black holes

We investigate gravitational quasinormal modes of the Dymnikova black hole, a regular spacetime in which the central singularity is replaced by a de Sitter core. This geometry, originally proposed as a phenomenological model, also arises naturally in the framework of Asymptotically Safe gravity, where quantum corrections lead to a scale-dependent modification of the Schwarzschild solution. Focusing on axial gravitational perturbations, we compute the dominant quasinormal frequencies using the WKB method with Padé approximants and verify the results with time-domain integration. We find that the introduction of the quantum parameter $l_{\rm cr}$ leads to systematic deviations from the Schwarzschild spectrum: the real oscillation frequency decreases as $l_{\rm cr}$ increases, while the damping rate also becomes smaller, implying longer-lived modes. In the limit of large $l_{\rm cr}$, the quasinormal spectrum smoothly approaches the Schwarzschild case. These results suggest that even though the corrections are localized near the horizon, they leave imprints in the gravitational-wave ringdown which may become accessible to observation with future high-precision detectors.
