Topological classes of rotating black holes

D Wu - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
In this paper, we investigate the topological numbers for the singly rotating Kerr black holes
in all dimensions and the four-dimensional Kerr-Newman black hole. We show that for …

Superradiant evolution of the shadow and photon ring of Sgr

Y Chen, R Roy, S Vagnozzi, L Visinelli - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
Ultralight bosons can affect the dynamics of spinning black holes (BHs) via superradiant
instability, which can lead to a time evolution of the supermassive BH shadow. We study …
