We prove the existence of general relativistic perfect fluid black hole solutions, and demonstrate the phenomenon for the $P=wrho$ class of equations of state. While admitting a local time-like Killing vector on the event horizon itself, the various black hole configurations are necessarily time dependent (thereby avoiding a well known no-go theorem) away from the horizon. Consistently, Hawkings imaginary time periodicity is globally manifest on the entire spacetime manifold.

We consider a cosmology in which the final stage of the Universe is neither accelerating nor decelerating, but approaches an asymptotic state where the scale factor becomes a constant value. In order to achieve this, we first bring in a scale factor with the desired property and then determine the details of the energy contents as a result of the cosmological evolution equations. We show that such a scenario can be realized if we introduce a generalized quintom model which consists of a scalar field and a phantom with a {it negative} cosmological constant term. The standard cold dark matter with $w_m=0$ is also introduced. This is possible basically due to the balance between the matter and the {it negative} cosmological constant which tend to attract and scalar field and phantom which repel in the asymptotic region. The stability analysis shows that this asymptotic solution is classically stable.
Event horizons are the defining physical features of black hole spacetimes, and are of considerable interest in studying black hole dynamics. Here, we reconsider three techniques to localise event horizons in numerical spacetimes: integrating geodesics, integrating a surface, and integrating a level-set of surfaces over a volume. We implement the first two techniques and find that straightforward integration of geodesics backward in time to be most robust. We find that the exponential rate of approach of a null surface towards the event horizon of a spinning black hole equals the surface gravity of the black hole. In head-on mergers we are able to track quasi-normal ringing of the merged black hole through seven oscillations, covering a dynamic range of about 10^5. Both at late times (when the final black hole has settled down) and at early times (before the merger), the apparent horizon is found to be an excellent approximation of the event horizon. In the head-on binary black hole merger, only {em some} of the future null generators of the horizon are found to start from past null infinity; the others approach the event horizons of the individual black holes at times far before merger.

Time stands still at a quantum critical point in the sense that correlation functions near to the critical point are approximately independent of frequency. In the case of a quantum liquid this would imply that classical hydrodynamics breaks down near to the critical point, revealing the underlying quantum degrees of freedom. An opportunity to see this effect for the first time in the laboratory may be provided by relativistic heavy ion collisions that are tuned so that the quark-gluon plasma passes through its critical point forming a closed critical surface. In this note we point out that in certain kinds of quantum fluids the temperature of a spherical critical surface will be proportional to (radius)-1 and the entropy inside the surface will be close to the Bekenstein bound. In these cases the breakdown in hydrodynamics near to the critical point might serve as a model for the behavior of quantum gravity near to an event horizon. Such a possibility is a fortiori notable because general relativity predicts that nothing should happen at an event horizon.

Our aim is to investigate the thermodynamic properties of the universe bounded by the cosmological event horizon and dominated by the tachyon fluid. We give two different laws of evolution of our universe. Further, we show the first law and the generalized second law of thermodynamics (GSLT) are both satisfied in two cases, but their properties of the thermodynamic equilibrium are totally different. Besides, under our solutions, we find the validity of the laws of thermodynamics is irrelevant with the parameters of the tachyon fluid. Finally, we conclude that the universe bounded by the cosmological event horizon and dominated by the tachyon fluid has a good thermodynamic description. In turn, the thermodynamic description can provide a good physical interpretation for the dynamic evolution of our universe due to the equivalence between the first law of thermodynamics and the Friedmann equation to some extent.
We show that it is possible to locate the event horizons of a black hole (in arbitrary dimensions) as the zeros of certain Cartan invariants. This approach accounts for the recent results on the detection of stationary horizons using scalar polynomial curvature invariants, and improves upon them since the proposed method is computationally less expensive. As an application, we produce Cartan invariants that locate the event horizons for various exact four-dimensional and five-dimensional stationary, asymptotically flat (or (anti) de Sitter) black hole solutions and compare the Cartan invariants with the corresponding scalar curvature invariants that detect the event horizon. In particular, for each of the four-dimensional examples we express the scalar polynomial curvature invariants introduced by Abdelqader and Lake in terms of the Cartan invariants and show a direct relationship between the scalar polynomial curvature invariants and the Cartan invariants that detect the horizon.
