Primordial black holes and scalar-induced gravitational waves in the supersymmetric 331 model from SU(6)

We study primordial black holes and scalar-induced gravitational waves in the supersymmetric 331 model based on SU(6). The inflaton continues to be the D-flat radial combination of the 331 symmetry-breaking fields Phi and Phi-bar, fields which are already accountable for the CMB branch. A gauge-invariant contribution that is localised in the Kaehler frame function causes the force in the Einstein frame to decrease over a finite range of the field and results in a temporary nonattractor phase. We calculate the supergravity potential and the radial metric, evolve the background and the Mukhanov-Sasaki modes, and assess the neutral covariant Hessian along the local region. The CMB trajectory is still in agreement with the present observational constraints while the curvature spectrum attains a value of P_zeta ~ 5.38 x 10^-3 when k ~ 1.88 x 10^13 Mpc^-1. The enhanced spectrum leads to a primordial black hole distribution with a mass comparable to that of an asteroid and to a maximum in the scalar-induced gravitational wave signal at a frequency of 3.17 x 10^-2 Hz with Omega_GW,0 h^2 ~ 9.41 x 10^-11. The local geometry also results in a clear hierarchy of sensitivities. The gravitational wave spectrum changes smoothly as one moves along nearby trajectories whereas the Gaussian tail of the primordial black hole distribution changes much more rapidly. The positive eigenvalues of the neutral transverse Hessian remain throughout the reference trajectory. A Gaussian critical collapse calculation yields a reference integrated primordial black hole fraction of near 9.08 x 10^-3, while recent nonlinear studies suggest significant corrections to the statistics of rare collapses at the scalar power achieved here.

LZ-Motivated Pseudo-Dirac Higgsinos in the Supersymmetric 331 Model from the Supersymmetric \texorpdfstring{$SU(6)$}{SU(6)} GUT Model

The high-recoil event reported by LUX--ZEPLIN motivates a neutral electroweak state with an inelastic splitting in the sub-MeV range. We propose supersymmetric 331 model from the supersymmetric $SU(6)$ GUT model, and we study the electroweakino sector relevant to this recoil. Above the $331$-breaking scale hypercharge is not an independent gauge factor, and the leading bino--wino cancellation is replaced by a relation between the physical $U(1)_X$ and $SU(3)_L$ gaugino invariants, $I_X=-I_L$. A singlet--adjoint gauge-kinetic source also correlates the colored invariant. We diagonalize the neutral gauge--Higgs fermion sector of the renormalizable model and determine the tree-level Higgsino splitting without introducing an effective bino mass by hand. The required solutions form a continuous locus in the gaugino and $331$-breaking parameters. At the reference point, the solution lies close to the leading sum rule, while variation of the $331$-breaking coupling moves the locus continuously. The same calculation tests the ordering of the additional neutral states, the gauge/gaugino contribution to the $331$-breaking scalar mass, and the gravitino ordering. We compare this construction with recent $SU(5)$, singlino-assisted, electroweak-multiplet, nuclear-response and solar-capture analyses of the LZ event.

Elastic toroidal vector dark matter through a dark photon in the LUX-ZEPLIN high recoil window

The 2026 LUX-ZEPLIN search reports one nuclear recoil candidate at $248\pm23_{\rm stat}\pm23_{\rm sys}~\mathrm{keV}$ in an extended window reaching about $270~\mathrm{keV}$. We consider elastic scattering of neutral complex vector dark matter through its dimension-six toroidal electromagnetic moment and find appreciable spectral weight in this recoil region. The nonrelativistic reduction correlates $\mathcal O_{17}$ and $\mathcal O_{20}$, relating a coherent charge branch to a transverse spin tensor branch. For $m_X=1~\mathrm{TeV}$, natural xenon exhibits a broad high recoil maximum at $204.8$ to $206.6~\mathrm{keV}$ and retains $80.4$ to $85.4\%$ of this maximum at $248~\mathrm{keV}$. Resolving the interaction through a dark photon relates the high-to-low recoil ratio to the mediator mass. A renormalizable $SU(2)_X\times U(1)_D$ realization stabilizes the complex vector by a residual $Z_3$ gauge symmetry and generates the toroidal current through vectorlike messengers carrying a physical CP phase. For a benchmark with $m_X=0.998~\mathrm{TeV}$ and $m_{A'}=0.450~\mathrm{GeV}$, $R(248)/R(50)=1.43$ for GCN and $1.21$ for JJ55, while the odd $A$ xenon fraction remains above $99.9\%$. The response level ratio between the $350$ to $590~\mathrm{keV}$ and $100$ to $270~\mathrm{keV}$ intervals is about $0.46$ at this benchmark. The tensor branch is absent for spin zero argon, whereas annual modulation remains at the few percent level. The resulting spectral, isotope, target, timing, mediator, and high energy dependences give correlated tests of an elastic tensor interpretation of the LZ recoil.

Dynamical Structure of Einasto Dark Matter Wormholes: Thin-Shell Stability and Particle Transitions

In this manuscript, we develop topologically charged static and spherically symmetric wormhole (WH) configurations in Einstein gravity by employing the Einasto dark matter profile to construct an analytic shape function. The resulting spacetime satisfies the fundamental traversability conditions, while the matter sector exhibits localized violations of energy conditions near the throat, indicating confined exotic matter content. We analyze equilibrium through the TOV framework, revealing a non-equilibrium force competition in which hydrostatic and anisotropic contributions self-organize to sustain static configurations within specific parameter domains. Stability is examined via the anisotropy parameter and further extended to linearized radial perturbations of the surrounding shell, uncovering parameter-dependent stability windows that characterize the system's nonlinear response. A detailed dynamical analysis shows that the monopole charge parameter significantly restructures the effective potential landscape, modifying curvature and inducing qualitative transitions in particle motion. The coupled interplay between monopole charge, angular momentum, and particle energy governs a nonlinear transition from tightly wound quasi-bound states to unbounded scattering trajectories. This transition reflects an emergent dynamical phase structure in the WH spacetime. Furthermore, the complexity factor exhibits strong localization near the throat and vanishes asymptotically, indicating that structural complexity is confined to the inner nonlinear regime, whereas a volume integral quantifier is employed to estimate the total exotic matter content required to sustain the configuration.

Nuclear interference versus dark sector excitation in the 248 keV LUX-ZEPLIN recoil candidate

The 2026 LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) high energy nuclear recoil search reports one event at $248\pm23_{\rm stat}\pm23_{\rm sys}~\mathrm{keV}$ and finds the elastic isovector interaction $\mathcal L_6^v$ locally favored at about $3.3σ$ in the heavy dark matter regime. We examine whether this recoil scale can arise from resolved nuclear response within the elastic interaction and compare its spectral, target, and annual modulation behavior with endothermic dark sector excitation. Covariant matching correlates four Galilean operators, removes the longitudinal spin response algebraically, and fixes interference between density and orbital spin orbit amplitudes. The GCN and JJ55 xenon shell model calculations give a second natural xenon cancellation at $211$ and $214~\mathrm{keV}$. In the heavy mass regime, its position changes by less than $0.01~\mathrm{keV}$ from a dark matter mass of $200~\mathrm{GeV}$ to the asymptotic limit. A curvature weighted isotope centroid reproduces the position and residual depth of the natural xenon minimum. Direct $^{40}$Ar calculations shift the nuclear feature to about $350$ and $425~\mathrm{keV}$, whereas endothermic excitation follows reduced mass scaling set by the dark state splitting. At a dark matter mass of $1~\mathrm{TeV}$, the endothermic Ar to Xe scale ratio is $1.082$, compared with $1.63$ to $2.01$ for the nuclear calculations. Elastic scattering gives a few percent annual modulation in the adopted halo model, while endothermic solutions near the maximum laboratory halo speed show much larger seasonal variation. These scaling and timing behaviors provide tests of a target-dependent nuclear cancellation against an excitation energy set by dark sector kinematics.

Finite-duration non-slow-roll effects in inflationary production of ultralight vector dark matter

Inflationary production of ultralight vector dark matter can be amplified by a brief non-slow-roll phase, yet instantaneous mass transitions generate ultraviolet ringing and leave finite-time predictions unresolved. We replace the sharp transition with a smooth profile and derive the momentum-response kernel of the longitudinal mode. Finite duration preserves the infrared enhancement, suppresses modes that resolve the transition, and introduces a profile-dependent correction to the relic abundance. After fixing the dark matter abundance, the induced gravitational-wave signal retains an independent transverse-traceless source dependence, so abundance rescaling alone leaves residual profile information. Numerical mode evolution and radiation-era tensor integration support the finite-width treatment. Transition duration therefore links microscopic inflationary dynamics to ultralight vector abundance and its low-frequency gravitational-wave signal.

Energy extraction processes and thermodynamics in rotating Weyl conformal black holes

This work investigates the original Penrose process (PP), as well as black hole (BH) thermodynamics, within the framework of conformal Weyl gravity. The theory is characterized by the dimensionful constants $γ$, which encodes the asymptotic rotational curvature of galactic rotation curves in an otherwise asymptotically flat spacetime, and $κ$, which is associated with the cosmological background constant $Λ$. We determine the locations of the event horizon and the extreme configurations for rotating BHs in this theory, and we provide both perturbative and exact expressions for the event horizon radius. The geodesic equations are restricted to the equatorial plane, and the corresponding dynamics, including energy extraction processes, are studied exclusively in this plane. As the principal results, we examine the feasibility and efficiency of the original PP, analyze BH deceleration mechanisms, and test the validity of the four laws of BH thermodynamics in the context of conformal Weyl gravity.

CMB Test of the Higgs Origin of Dark-Photon Dark Matter

Laboratory searches determine the mass and kinetic mixing of dark-photon dark matter. The CMB isocurvature probes how its abundance depends on inflationary initial conditions. We formulate this dependence through the logarithmic response $q_{\rm eff}=\partial\ln n_{A'}/\partial\ln r_i$ of the final vector number to the primordial dark-Higgs displacement. For a smooth local abundance map, the separate-universe relation connects $q_{\rm eff}$ to the CDM isocurvature. The uncorrelated Planck limit applies when the dark Higgs is a light and energetically subdominant spectator with weak inflaton mixing. In the quadratic conserved-number branch displacement-independent transfer gives $q_{\rm eff}=2$. The all-dark-matter bound then requires $r_i/H_*>3.5\times10^4$. We calculate the dynamical map by evolving the radial mode and its tangent response through a smooth Abelian-Higgs crossover. The post-transition orbit gives the comoving action. The map contains positive, negative, and near-zero responses at finite transferred action. Tanh and error-function crossovers retain these branches. A thermal-mass profile and finite inflationary quartics shift their locations continuously. Stochastic duration and radiative stability then determine realization regions. Early symmetry breaking and momentum redshift add the remaining conditions. Low-energy measurements and the CMB response can distinguish Higgsed-vector cosmologies with identical present-day $(m_{A'},ε)$ and relic abundance.

Lorentz Symmetry Breaking Traversable Wormhole Models Supported by Einasto Dark Matter

We investigate static, spherically symmetric traversable wormholes in Kalb Ramond gravity, where spontaneous Lorentz symmetry breaking arises from a non-vanishing vacuum expectation value of the antisymmetric Kalb Ramond field. The matter sector is modeled by the Einasto dark matter density profile, yielding an analytical shape function expressed via the incomplete Gamma function. The resulting geometry satisfies the throat, flare-out, and asymptotic-flatness requirements, with embedding diagrams providing a geometric visualization of the wormhole structure. The energy density stays positive throughout the considered domain, while the radial null energy condition is violated near the throat, showing that the exotic matter required for traversability can be localized to a restricted region. The internal structure is further characterized through the complexity factor, which is most pronounced near the throat and gradually decays to zero at larger radii. We also examine the total gravitational energy, active gravitational mass, average pressure, and equilibrium behavior via the generalized TOV equation and pressure anisotropy; for the constant-redshift configuration, equilibrium is maintained by a balance between the hydrostatic and anisotropic forces. The optical properties of the spacetime are further explored through the photon sphere, critical impact parameter, light deflection angle, and echo time. Finally, the volume integral quantifier is used to estimate the total amount of null-energy-condition-violating matter, showing that the exotic contribution remains concentrated near the wormhole throat. The analysis highlights the combined role of the Kalb Ramond gravitational parameter and the Einasto matter distribution in shaping the geometric, energetic, and observational characteristics of the resulting wormhole configurations.

Probing scalarized wormholes through quasi-periodic oscillations and spinning particle dynamics

We investigate the dynamics of test particles in a three-parameter scalarized wormhole spacetime within Einstein-scalar field theory. For spinless particles, we derive the orbital and epicyclic frequencies and compute twin-peak QPO spectra using the ER3 and ER4 resonance models. The scalar coupling parameter $g_s$ shifts the innermost stable circular orbit to larger radii and systematically modifies the characteristic 3:2 resonance condition. Extending to spinning particles via the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon formalism, we find that spin-curvature coupling significantly alters the effective potential and innermost stable circular orbit parameters. The maximum physically admissible spin increases monotonically with the scalar coupling. Analysis of particle collisions near the wormhole throat reveals that both scalar coupling and relative spin orientation determine collision energetics, with anti-aligned spin configurations producing substantially higher energies. Our results suggest that the combined effects of scalar coupling and spin-curvature interaction leave distinct imprints on QPO frequencies and collision processes, potentially providing observable signatures for distinguishing scalarized wormholes from standard black holes.

Coherent and Stochastic Axion Dark Matter from Thermal Relaxation

An axion driven toward a thermal minimum need not remain a coherent condensate. We derive the coupled attenuation of the field mean and production of stochastic momentum modes in an expanding plasma. A single momentum dependent optical depth partitions every mode between coherent power and Bose occupation, placing standard misalignment, partial relaxation, and stochastic production in one dynamical relation. Finite spatial and temporal response suppresses high momentum production, so the stochastic relic has lower mean momentum and a shorter free streaming length than an equilibrium population at fixed mass and bath temperature. A weakly coupled realization produces the dark matter abundance, reduces inherited coherent isocurvature, and confines production correlations to scales removed by collisionless propagation. Thermal relaxation therefore determines the composition, momentum distribution, and transported structure of axion dark matter.

Thermal Alignment as a Pathway to Axion Dark Matter

Thermal alignment cannot be inferred from the axion mean alone because the dissipative bath that erases the initial displacement also prepares field and momentum fluctuations. We derive a phase space covariance bound that quantifies this memory and noise relation in the full inertial Langevin system. A renormalizable finite temperature gauge theory then links the temporary susceptibility, the Chern-Simons bath, bath termination, and the stable late potential through one scalar transition. Solving the coupled mean and covariance evolution demonstrates erasure of the incoming state, release of a causal infrared spectrum, and capture of the full phase space distribution as axion dark matter across the transition interval. Thermal alignment therefore determines a calculable late axion state rather than a homogeneous displacement alone.

Testing the Direction of Dark Sector Interaction Using Late-Time Datasets

In this work, we constrain the phenomenological interacting dark energy $ξ$IDE model using baryon acoustic oscillation measurements from DESI Data Release 1 and Data Release 2, combined with cosmic chronometer measurements, compressed CMB likelihoods, and three different Type Ia supernova compilations: Pantheon$^+$, DES-Dovekie, and Union3. We constrain the parameters of the $ξ$IDE model using a Markov Chain Monte Carlo analysis, using the nested sampling algorithm implemented in the \texttt{dynesty} package through the cosmological inference code \texttt{SimpleMC}. Compared to $Λ$CDM, the $ξ$IDE model favors slightly higher values of the Hubble constant, leading to a reduction in the Hubble tension. However, the tension is not completely resolved for any dataset combination. The parameter $ξ$ is consistently constrained to values close to its $Λ$CDM prediction, indicating no statistically significant deviation from the standard cosmological scenario. Similarly, except for the CMB + DESI DR1 + CC dataset combination, the dark energy equation-of-state parameter prefers values of $w_{\rm X}>-1$, showing a preference for quintessence-like behavior and providing evidence for dynamical dark energy. The interaction parameter combination, $ξ+3w_{\rm X}$, is found to be negative for all dataset combinations, corresponding to energy transfer from dark energy to dark matter. The strongest preference is obtained for the CMB + DESI DR2 + CC + Union3 dataset combination, yielding $ξ+3w_{\rm X}=-0.035\pm0.023$, which corresponds to a deviation of only $1.52σ$ from the non-interacting limit. Therefore, the current data provide only a weak indication of a non-zero dark-sector interaction. Model comparison based on the $Nσ$ statistic shows weak evidence in favor of the interacting scenario, while Bayesian evidence consistently prefers the $Λ$CDM model.

Scalar and Electromagnetic Perturbations around a Black Hole with a Topological Defect: Quasinormal Modes and Quasi-bound States in a Plasma Medium

We investigated the influence of a plasma environment on the optical and perturbative properties of a black hole with a topological defect, characterized by the parameter \(k\). We first established a straightforward correspondence between the real part of the quasinormal-mode (QNM) frequencies in the eikonal limit and the black-hole shadow radius. We then demonstrated that the Lyapunov exponent associated with the photon sphere exhibits only a weak dependence on the plasma frequency, while it monotonically decreases as the topological-defect parameter \(k\) increases. Subsequently, we analyzed massive scalar-field perturbations by deriving the associated effective potential and computing the QNM spectrum using the third- and sixth-order WKB approximations for both homogeneous and radially inhomogeneous plasma configurations, including the singular isothermal sphere (SIS) and non-singular isothermal sphere (NSIS) density profiles. Our results show that the presence of plasma induces shifts in both the oscillation frequencies and the damping rates of the modes, and that larger values of \(k\) systematically suppress the real part of the QNM frequencies. Among the plasma models considered, the NSIS profile generally yields slightly higher oscillation frequencies than both the SIS and homogeneous cases. Finally, we derived the dynamical equations governing electromagnetic perturbations in a cold, unmagnetized plasma and demonstrated that the axial and polar sectors decouple. In the axial sector, the plasma frequency enters as an effective mass term, thereby permitting the existence of quasi-bound states only in the case of a homogeneous plasma and only when the plasma frequency lies below a critical threshold that depends on the topological-defect parameter \(k\) and the multipole index \(l\).

Conformal dark matter and MHz gravitational waves

A localized enhancement of the primordial curvature spectrum can leave two distinct relics: gravitationally produced conformal-fermion dark matter and a scalar-induced stochastic gravitational-wave background. We show that the dark-matter abundance fixes the scalar normalization through the cubic moment of the curvature spectrum, while the induced tensor signal probes its quadratic convolution. This closes the usual normalization freedom in scalar-induced gravitational-wave templates and ties the MHz signal directly to the dark-matter mass, peak scale, and spectral width. A concrete single-field realization demonstrates this mechanism: a Mukhanov--Sasaki evolution produces a broad MHz background that sits safely below the Gaussian primordial-black-hole threshold. In this construction, a null high-frequency search becomes a lower bound on the conformal-fermion mass, while a detection has to reproduce the relic abundance, peak frequency, amplitude, and width from one primordial feature. The result is a testable link between small-scale inflationary structure, superheavy dark matter, and laboratory MHz gravitational-wave searches

Parametric Resonance of Higgsed Vector Dark Matter: Inflationary Initial Conditions and Sourced Displacements

Parametric resonance in a Higgsed Abelian sector provides an efficient mechanism for producing vector dark matter, but its viability depends crucially on the origin of the initial dark-Higgs displacement that seeds the resonance. In this work, we investigate this initial-condition problem in a weakly coupled Abelian-Higgs theory with potential $V=λ_4(ϕ^2-v^2)^2/4$, using the calibrated nonlinear broad-resonance relic map together with a stochastic inflationary analysis of the dark-Higgs condensate. We show that a minimal light-spectator realization fails under standard inflationary duration: while broad resonance and isocurvature constraints require \( ϕ_0/H_I \gtrsim 3.3\times10^4, \) the stochastic equilibrium and finite-duration random walk produce only \( ϕ/H_I=\mathcal O(1). \) This large displacement mismatch is robust against order-of-magnitude variations in the resonance efficiency and broadness threshold, establishing a model-independent obstruction to the stochastic branch. We then identify a distinct classically sourced branch, generated by a negative Hubble-induced mass, in which the condensate tracks a time-dependent minimum, \( ϕ_0=κH_*/\sqrt{λ_4}, \) and the radial fluctuation remains heavy during inflation. In this case, the fixed-$e/λ_D$ relic scaling shifts from \( m_X\propto λ_4^{5/8}H_I^{-3/2} \) to \( m_X\propto κ^{-3/2}λ_4 H_*^{-3/2}. \) We derive the simultaneous consistency conditions for this sourced branch, including broad resonance, adiabatic tracking, perturbativity, sub-Planckian displacement, thermal non-erasure, spectator backreaction, and control of inflationary vector fluctuations. Our results establish that Higgsed-vector resonance is not merely a dark-matter production mechanism, but a sensitive probe of the inflationary and reheating dynamics that determine its initial conditions.

Dilaton-Induced Resonant Production of Ultralight Vector Dark Matter

A dilatonic half-mass resonance can produce ultralight vector dark matter only if the Floquet instability becomes efficient before the oscillating spectator scalar dominates the cosmic expansion. We formulate this requirement in terms of the microscopic modulation parameter $ε_i=Φ_i/M$ and the gravitational onset fraction $r_i=Φ_i^2/(6\Mpl^2)$. For a background with constant equation-of-state parameter $w_b$, the narrow-band Floquet exponent obeys $μ/H\propto a^{3w_b/2}$; during radiation domination this ratio grows as $a^{1/2}$, while it remains constant for matter-like expansion. Imposing that the delayed instability occurs before spectator domination yields the amplitude-independent bound $M/\Mpl\lesssim\sqrt6,c_1\simeq0.31$, with $c_1\simeq1/8$ determined by the linear half-mass branch. An explicit expanding-background analysis confirms that $a_\star<a_{\rm dom}$ for sub-Planckian $M$, whereas $M\simeq\Mpl$ postpones efficient growth until after domination. Combining this embedding condition with the efficient-transfer normalization gives $m_{γ'}\propto r_i^{-2}$, implying that the ultralight range $m_{γ'}\sim10^{-20}$--$10^{-18},{\rm eV}$ corresponds to $r_i\sim10^{-5}$--$10^{-4}$ rather than to early spectator domination. The polarization-resolved canonical analysis shows that longitudinal production is more strongly concentrated in the infrared than transverse production, while derivative terms from canonical normalization modify the leading Floquet exponents at order unity. Stückelberg and Higgsed completions impose distinct ultraviolet consistency conditions, including radial decoupling and symmetry-restoration constraints. The viable branch is therefore radiation-era, perturbative, infrared-dominated, and associated with a sub-Planckian kinetic scale.

Long Inflation Screens Euclidean-Wormhole Initial States

Euclidean wormholes can prepare inflation in non--Bunch--Davies initial states, but long Lorentzian expansion screens this memory from the CMB. We derive a visibility bound for Euclidean-matched Bogoliubov data: the pivot excitation satisfies $|β_*| \lesssim e^{-2N_{\rm pre}}$, and smooth Euclidean filters confine residual signatures to a comoving edge $k_w=a_iM$. Only near-minimal inflation, or an edge inside the observable window, leaves detectable scalar, tensor, and higher-point imprints. For longer inflation, wormhole-prepared perturbations are driven to the Bunch--Davies prediction. Euclidean memory therefore, becomes a quantitative bound on inflationary duration, with direct targets in CMB polarization and large-scale structure: the longer inflation lasts, the less of the wormhole remains on the sky.
