With a suitable decomposition of its energy-momentum tensor into pressureless matter and a vacuum type term, we investigate the spherical gravitational collapse of a minimally coupled, self-interacting scalar field, showing that it collapses to a ...

Static spherically symmetric uncoupled scalar space–times have no event horizon and a divergent Kretschmann singularity at the origin of the coordinates. The singularity is always present so that nonstatic solutions have been sought to see if the singularities can develop from an initially singular free space–time.

Shadow Images of a Rotating Dyonic Black Hole with a Global Monopole Surrounded by Perfect Fluid
In this paper, we revisit the rotating global monopole metric and extend the metric to a rotating dyonic global monopole in the presence of a perfect fluid. We then show that the surface topology at the event horizon, related to the metric computed, is a

Complex scalar fields in scalar-tensor and scalar-torsion theories
In this paper, we investigate the cosmological dynamics in a spatially flat Friedmann–Lemaître–Robertson–Walker geometry in scalar-tensor and scalar-torsion theories where the nonminimally coupled scalar field is a complex field. We derive the cosmological field equations and we make use of dimensionless variables in order to determine the stationary ...

Vacuum Radiation from Massive Scalar Field
The vacuum radiation of a massive scalar field is studied by means of a single moving mirror. The field equation with an arbitrary-shaped mirror moving in (d+1) dimensions is given perturbatively in the non-relativistic limit.

Quantum imploding scalar fields [PDF]
Abstract The d’Alembertian □ϕ = 0 has the solution ϕ = f(v)/r, where f is a function of a null coordinate v, and this allows creation of a divergent singularity out of nothing. In scalar-Einstein theory a similar situation arises both for the scalar field and also for curvature invariants such as the Ricci scalar. Here what happens in

R2 quantum corrected scalar field inflation
String theory enjoys an elevated role among quantum gravity theories, since it seems to be the most consistent UV completion of general relativity and the Standard Model.
