Hole Solutions In Massive Gravity Research Articles

P−V criticality of the nonlinear charged black hole solutions in massive gravity’s rainbow

In this paper, we explore the black hole solutions with the rainbow deformed metric in the presence of the exponential form of the nonlinear electrodynamics with asymptotic Reissner–Nordström properties. We calculate the exact solution of metric function and explore the geometrical properties in the background of massive gravity. From the obtained solution, the existence of the singularity is confirmed in proper limits. Using the solutions, we also investigate the thermodynamic properties of the solutions by checking the validity of the first law of thermodynamics. Continuing the thermodynamic study, we investigate the conditions under which the system is thermally stable from the heat capacity and the Gibbs free energy. We also discuss the possible phase transition and the criticality of the system. It was found that the quantum gravitational effects of gravity’s rainbow render the thermodynamic system stable in the vicinity of the singularity. Hence, we obtained a first-order phase transition which is interpreted as the large/small black hole phase transition. From the equation of state, it was found that after diverging at the singularity, the system evolves asymptotically into pressure-less dust as one moves away from the central singularity. We also calculated the quantum work using the change of the Helmholtz free energy.

Gravitational collapse in massive gravity in de Sitter spacetime

We analyze the evolution of a homogenous and pressureless ball of dust (or ``star'') in ghost-free massive gravity on de Sitter spacetime. We find that gravitational collapse does not take place for all parameters of the massive gravity theory. For parameters where it does occur, we find the expression for the location of the apparent horizon where it crosses the surface of the star, indicating the location of the apparent horizon of the vacuum solution at that moment. We determine the Ricci curvature at the boundary of the star and extract the finite correction to the curvature of the apparent horizon due to the graviton mass. Finally, we argue that our collapsing solutions cannot be matched to a static, spherically symmetric vacuum solution at the star's surface, providing further evidence that physical black hole solutions in massive gravity are likely time-dependent.

Non-singular black holes in massive gravity: time-dependent solutions

When starting with a static, spherically-symmetric ansatz, there are two types of black hole solutions in dRGT massive gravity: (i) exact Schwarzschild solutions which exhibit no Yukawa suppression at large distances and (ii) solutions in which the dynamical metric and the reference metric are simultaneously diagonal and which inevitably exhibit coordinate-invariant singularities at the horizon. In this work we investigate the possibility of black hole solutions which can accommodate both a nonsingular horizon and Yukawa asymptotics. In particular, by adopting a time-dependent ansatz, we derive perturbative analytic solutions which possess non-singular horizons. These black hole solutions are indistinguishable from Schwarzschild black holes in the limit of zero graviton mass. At finite graviton mass, they depend explicitly on time. However, we demonstrate that the location of the apparent horizon is not necessarily time-dependent, indicating that these black holes are not necessarily accreting or evaporating (classically). In deriving these results, we also review and extend known results about static black hole solutions in massive gravity.

Perturbations of cosmological and black hole solutions in massive gravity and bi-gravity

We investigate perturbations of a class of spherically symmetric solutions in massive gravity and bi-gravity. The background equations of motion for the particular class of solutions we are interested in reduce to a set of the Einstein equations with a cosmological constant. Thus, the solutions in this class include all the spherically symmetric solutions in general relativity, such as the Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker solution and the Schwarzschild (-de Sitter) solution, though the one-parameter family of two parameters of the theory admits such a class of solutions. We find that the equations of motion for the perturbations of this class of solutions also reduce to the perturbed Einstein equations at first and second order. Therefore, the stability of the solutions coincides with that of the corresponding solutions in general relativity. In particular, these solutions do not suffer from non-linear instabilities which often appear in the other cosmological solutions in massive gravity and bi-gravity.

Black hole solutions in massive gravity

The static vacuum spherically symmetric solutions in massive gravity are obtained both analytically and numerically. The solutions depend on two parameters (integration constants): the mass M (or, equivalently, the Schwarzschild radius), and an additional parameter, the ``scalar charge'' S. At zero value of S and positive mass the standard Schwarzschild black hole solutions are recovered. Depending on the parameters of the model and the signs of M and S, the solutions may or may not have horizon. Those with the horizon describe modified black holes provided they are stable against small perturbations. In the analytically solvable example, the modified black hole solutions may have both attractive and repulsive (anti-gravitating) behavior at large distances. At intermediate distances the gravitational potential of a modified black hole may mimics the presence of dark matter. Modified black hole solutions are also found numerically in more realistic massive gravity models which are attractors of the cosmological evolution.
