Charged scalar field perturbations in Ernst black holes

We consider the propagation of a charged massive scalar field in the background of a four-dimensional Ernst black hole and study its stability analyzing the quasinormal modes (QNMs), which are calculated using the semi-analytical Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin method and numerically using the continued fraction method. Mainly, we find that for a scalar field mass less than a critical mass, the decay rate of the QNMs decreases when the harmonic angular number $\ell$ increases; and for a scalar field mass greater than the critical mass the behaviour is inverted, i.e, the longest-lived modes are always the ones with the lowest angular number recovering the standard behaviour. Also, we find a critical value of the external magnetic field, as well as, a critical value of the scalar field charge that exhibit the same behaviour with respect to the angular harmonic numbers. In addition, we show that the spacetime allows stable quasibound states and we observe a splitting of the spectrum due to the Zeeman effect. Finally, we show that the unstable null geodesic in the equatorial plane is connected with the QNMs when the azimuthal quantum number satisfy $m= \pm \ell$ in the eikonal limit.

Quasinormal modes of massive scalar fields in four-dimensional wormholes: anomalous decay rate

In this work we consider a Generalized Bronnikov-Ellis wormhole and the tideless Morris-Thorne wormhole and we study the propagation of massive scalar fields. We calculate the quasinormal frequencies using the WKB method and the pseudospectal Chebyshev method and we show the presence of an anomalous decay rate for the quasinormal modes in the Generalized Bronnikov-Ellis wormhole. However, such anomalous behaviour is avoided for the fundamental mode in the Morris-Thorne wormhole background.

Extreme Dilaton Black Holes in 2 +1 Dimensions: Quasinormal modes

We study neutral massless scalar field perturbations around an extreme dilaton black hole in 2 +1 dimensions: the wave equations of the massless scalar field is shown to be exactly solvable in terms of Whittaker functions. Thus, the quasinormal modes are computed exactly and shown to be purely imaginary: we show the existence of stable and unstable modes. Interestingly, the quasinormal modes do not depend on the black holes parameters and the fundamental mode is always unstable and depends only on the parameters of the test field. Also, we determine the quasinormal frequencies via the improved asymptotic iteration method which shows a good agreement with the analytical results.

Quasinormal modes for massive charged scalar fields in Reissner-Nordström dS black holes: anomalous decay rate

The anomalous decay rate of the quasinormal modes occurs when the longest-lived modes are the ones with higher angular number. Such behaviour has been recently studied in different static spacetimes, for uncharged scalar and fermionic perturbations, being observed in both cases. In this work we consider the propagation of charged massive scalar fields in the background of Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter black holes and we mainly study the effect of the scalar field charge in the spectrum of quasinormal frequencies, as well as, its effect on the anomalous decay rate. Mainly, we show that the anomalous behaviour is present for massive charged scalar fields as well, and a critical value of scalar field mass exists, beyond which the behaviour is inverted. However, there is also a critical value of the parameter $qQ$ of the charge of the scalar field and of the charge of the black hole, which increases when the cosmological constant increases, and beyond the critical value the anomalous behaviour of the decay rate could be avoided for the fundamental mode.

Superradiant instability and charged scalar quasinormal modes for $2+1$-dimensional Coulomb-like AdS black holes from nonlinear electrodynamics

We study the propagation of charged scalar fields in the background of $2+1$-dimensional Coulomb-like AdS black holes, and we show that such propagation is unstable under Dirichlet boundary conditions. However, all the unstable modes are superradiant and all the stable modes are non-superradiant, according with the superradiant condition. Mainly, we show that when the scalar field is charged the quasinormal frecuencies (QNFs) are always complex, contrary to the uncharged case, where for small values of the black hole charge the complex QNFs are dominant, while that for bigger values of the black hole charge the purely imaginary QNFs are dominant.

Scalar quasinormal modes for 2+1-dimensional Coulomb like AdS black holes from non lineal electrodynamics

We study the propagation of scalar fields in the background of $2+1$-dimensional Coulomb like AdS black holes, and we show that such propagation is stable under Dirichlet boundary conditions. Then, we solve the Klein-Gordon equation by using the pseudospectral Chevyshev method, and we find the quasinormal frequencies. Mainly, we find that the quasinormal frequencies are purely imaginary for a null angular number and they are complex and purely imaginary for a non null value of the angular number, which depend on the black hole charge, angular number and overtone number. On the other hand, the effect of the inclusion of a Coulomb like field from non lineal electrodynamics to General Relativity for a vanishing angular number is the emergence of two branches of quasinormal frequencies in contrast with the static BTZ black hole.

Time like geodesics in three-dimensional rotating Hořava AdS black hole

We study the motion of particles in the background of a three-dimensional rotating Hořava AdS black hole that corresponds to a Lorentz-violating version of the BTZ black hole and we analyze the effect of the breaking of Lorentz invariance in such motion by solving analytically the geodesic equations. Mainly, we find that Lorentz-violating version of the BTZ black hole posses a more rich geodesic structure, where the planetary and circular orbits are allowed, which does not occurs in the BTZ background.

Quasinormal modes and their anomalous behavior for black holes in $f(R)$ gravity

We study the propagation of scalar fields in the background of an asymptotically de-Sitter black hole solution in $f(R)$ gravity. The aim of this work is to analyze in modified theories of gravity the existence of an anomalous decay rate of the quasinormal modes (QNMs) of a massive scalar field which was recently reported in Schwarzschild black holes backgrounds, in which the longest-lived modes are the ones with higher angular number, for a scalar field mass smaller than a critical value, while that beyond this value the behavior is inverted. We study the QNMs for various overtone numbers and they depend on a parameter $β$ which appears in the metric and characterizes the $f(R)$ gravity. For small $β$, i.e small deviations from the Schwarzschild-dS black hole the anomalous behaviour in the QNMs is present for the photon sphere modes, and the critical value of the mass of the scalar field depends on the parameter $β$ while for large $β$, i.e large deviations the anomalous behaviour and the critical mass does not appear. Also, the critical mass of the scalar field increases when the overtone number increases until the $f(R)$ gravity parameter $β$ approaches the near extremal limit at which the critical mass of the scalar field does not depend anymore on the overtone number. The imaginary part of the quasinormal frequencies is always negative leading to a stable propagation of the scalar fields in this background.

Null geodesics in five-dimensional Reissner-Nordström anti-de Sitter black hole

The study of the motion of photons around massive bodies is one of the most useful tools to know the geodesic structure associated with said gravitational source. In the present work, different possible paths projected in an invariant hyperplane are investigated, considering five-dimensional Reissner-Nordström anti-de Sitter black hole. Also, we study some observational test such as the bending of light and the Shapiro time delay effect. Mainly, we found that the motion of photons follows the hippopede of Proclus geodesic, which is a new type of trajectory of second kind, being the Limaçon of Pascal their analogue geodesic in four-dimensional Reissner-Nordström anti-de Sitter black hole.

Massive Dirac quasinormal modes in Schwarzschild-dS black holes: anomalous decay rate and fine structure

Recently, the anomalous decay rate of quasinormal modes has been studied for some geometries under scalar field perturbations, which occurs when the longest-lived modes are the ones with higher angular number, as well as, the existence of a critical scalar field mass, i.e the value of scalar field mass such that the decay rate does not depend appreciably on the angular number, and beyond which the behaviour of the decay rate is inverted. Here, we consider the propagation of fermionic fields in the background of Schwarzschild de Sitter black holes, and we show that the anomalous decay rate behaviour and the fine structure, related to the coupling between the chirality and the mass of the field, can be observed in the fermionic spectrum.

Anomalous decay rate of quasinormal modes in Reissner-Nordström black holes

The anomalous decay rate of the quasinormal modes occurs when the longest-lived modes are the ones with higher angular number. Such behaviour has been recently studied in different static spacetimes, for scalar and fermionic perturbations, being observed in both cases. In this work, we extend the existent studies to the charged spacetimes, namely, the Reissner-Nordström, the Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter and the Reissner-Nordström-Anti-de Sitter black holes. We show that the anomalous decay rate behaviour of the scalar field perturbations is present for every charged geometry in the photon sphere modes, with the existence of a critical scalar field mass whenever $Λ\geq 0$. In general, this critical value of mass increases with the raise of the black hole charge, thus rendering a minimum in the Schwarzschild limit. We also study the dominant mode/family for the massless and massive scalar field in these geometries showing a non-trivial dominance of the spectra that depends on the black hole mass and charge.

Thermodynamics of 2+1 dimensional Coulomb-Like Black Holes from Non Linear Electrodynamics with a traceless energy momentum tensor

In this work we study thermodynamics of 2+1-dimensional static black holes with a nonlinear electric field. Besides employing the standard thermodynamic approach, we investigate the black hole thermodynamics by studying its thermodynamic geometry. We compute the Weinhold and Ruppeiner metrics and compare the thermodynamic geometry with the standard description on the black hole thermodynamics. We further consider the cosmological constant as an additional extensive thermodynamic variable. In the thermodynamic equilibrium three dimensional space, we compute the efficiency of the heat engine and show that it is possible to be built with this black hole.

Constraints on Scalar-Tensor Theory of Gravity by Solar System Tests

We study the motion of particles in the background of a scalar-tensor theory of gravity in which the scalar field is kinetically coupled to Einstein tensor. We constrain the value of the derivative parameter $z$ through solar system tests. By considering the perihelion precession we obtain the constrain $\sqrt{z}/m_p > 2.6\times 10^{12}$ m, the gravitational red-shift $\frac{\sqrt{z}}{m_{p}}>2.7\times10^{\,10}$ m, the deflection of light $\sqrt{z}/m_p > 1.6 \times 10^{11}$ m, and the gravitational time delay $\sqrt{z}/m_p > 7.9 \times 10^{12}$ m; thereby, our results show that it is possible to constrain the value of the $z$ parameter in agreement with the observational tests that have been considered.

Anomalous decay rate of quasinormal modes in Schwarzschild-dS and Schwarzschild-AdS black holes

Recently an anomalous decay rate of the quasinormal modes of a massive scalar field in Schwarzschild black holes backgrounds was reported in which the longest-lived modes are the ones with higher angular number, for a scalar field mass smaller than a critical value, while that beyond this value the behaviour is inverted. In this work, we extend the study to other asymptotic geometries, such as, Schwarzschild-de Sitter and Schwarzschild-AdS black holes. Mainly, we found that such behaviour and the critical mass are present in the Schwarzschild-de Sitter background. Also, we found that the value of the critical mass increases when the cosmological constant increases and also when the overtone number is increasing. On the other hand, despite the critical mass is not present in Schwarzschild-AdS black holes backgrounds, the decay rate of the quasinormal modes always exhibits an anomalous behaviour.

Perturbative and nonperturbative quasinormal modes of 4D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet black holes

We study the propagation of probe scalar fields in the background of 4D Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet black holes with anti-de Sitter (AdS) asymptotics and calculate the quasinormal modes. Mainly, we show that the quasinormal spectrum consists of two different branches, a branch perturbative in the Gauss-Bonnet coupling constant $α$ and another branch nonperturbative in $α$. The perturbative branch consists of complex quasinormal frequencies that approximate to the quasinormal frequencies of the Schwarzschild AdS black hole in the limit of a null coupling constant. On the other hand, the nonperturbative branch consists of purely imaginary frequencies and is characterized by the growth of the imaginary part when $α$ decreases, diverging in the limit of null coupling constant, therefore they do not exist for the Schwarzschild AdS black hole. Also, we find that the imaginary part of the quasinormal frequencies is always negative for both branches; therefore, the propagation of scalar fields is stable in this background.

Collision of particles near a three-dimensional rotating Hořava AdS black hole

We consider a three-dimensional rotating Hořava AdS black hole, that corresponds to a Lorentz-violating version of the BTZ black hole and we analyze the effect of the breaking of Lorentz invariance on the possibility that the black hole can acts as a particle accelerator by analyzing the energy in the center of mass (CM) frame of two colliding particles in the vicinity of its horizons. We find that the critical angular momentum of particles increases when the Hořava parameter $ξ$ increases and when the aether parameter $b$ increases. Also, the particles can collide on the inner horizon with arbitrarily high CM energy if one of the particles has a critical angular momentum being possible the BSW process, for the non-extremal rotating Hořava AdS black hole. Mainly, while that for the extremal BTZ black hole the particles with critical angular momentum only can exist on the degenerate horizon, for the Lorentz-violating version of the BTZ black hole the particle with critical angular momentum can exist in a region from the degenerate horizon.

Motion and trajectories of photons in a three-dimensional rotating Hořava AdS black hole

We study the motion of photons in the background of a three-dimensional rotating Hořava AdS black hole that corresponds to a Lorentz-violating version of the BTZ black hole and we analyze the effect of the breaking of Lorentz invariance on the null geodesics structure, by solving analytically the equations of motion. Mainly we find that, through a fine tuning of the parameters of the theory, new kinds of orbits are allowed, such as unstable circular orbits and trajectories of first kind. Also, we show that an external observer will see that photons arrive at spatial infinity in a finite coordinate time.

D=11 cosmologies with teleparallel structure

The presence of additional compact dimensions in cosmological models is studied in the context of modified teleparallel theories of gravity. We focus the analysis on eleven dimensional spacetimes, where the seven dimensional extra dimensions are compactified. In particular, and due to the importance that global vector fields play within the conceptual body of teleparallel modified gravity models, we consider the additional dimensions to be products of parallelizable spheres. The global vector fields characterizing the different topologies are obtained, as well as the equations of motion associated to them. Using global dynamical system techniques, we discuss some physical consequences arising because of the existence of the extra dimensions. In particular, the possibility of having an early inflationary epoch driven by the presence of extra dimensions without other matter sources is discussed.
