In this work, a generalization of the Mazur-Mottola gravastar model is explored, by considering a matching of an interior solution governed by the dark energy equation of state, $omegaequiv p/ rho<-1/3$, to an exterior Schwarzschild vacuum solution at a junction interface, situated near to where the event horizon is expected to form. The motivation for implementing this generalization arises from the fact that recent observations have confirmed an accelerated cosmic expansion, for which dark energy is a possible candidate.

The present surge for the astrophysical relevance of boson stars stems from the speculative possibility that these compact objects could provide a considerable fraction of the non-baryonic part of dark matter within the halo of galaxies. For a very l ight `universal axion of effective string models, their total gravitational mass will be in the most likely range of sim 0.5 M_odot of MACHOs. According to this framework, gravitational microlensing is indirectly ``weighing the axion mass, resulting in sim 10^{-10} eV/c^2. This conclusion is not changing much, if we use a dilaton type self-interaction for the bosons. Moreover, we review their formation, rotation and stability as likely candidates of astrophysical importance.
A common argument suggests that non-singular geometries may not describe black holes observed in nature since they are unstable due to a mass-inflation effect. We analyze the dynamics associated with spherically symmetric, regular black holes taking the full backreaction between the infalling matter and geometry into account. We identify the crucial features taming the growth of the mass function and a diminished curvature singularity at the Cauchy horizon and demonstrate that the regular black hole solutions proposed by Hayward and obtained from Asymptotic Safety satisfy these properties.
We discuss scenarios in which the galactic dark matter in spiral galaxies is described by a long range coherent field which settles in a stationary configuration that might account for the features of the galactic rotation curves. The simplest possib ility is to consider scalar fields, so we discuss in particular, two mechanisms that would account for the settlement of the scalar field in a non-trivial configuration in the absence of a direct coupling of the field with ordinary matter: topological defects, and spontaneous scalarization.

A topological extension of general relativity is presented. The superposition principle of quantum mechanics, as formulated by the Feynman path integral, is taken as a starting point. It is argued that the trajectories that enter this path integral a re distinct, despite any quantum uncertainty in geometry, and thus that space-time topology is multiply connected. Specifically, space-time at the Planck scale consists of a lattice of three-tori that facilitates many distinct paths for particles to travel along. To add gravity, mini black holes are attached to this lattice. These mini black holes represent Wheelers quantum foam and result from the fact that GR is not conformally invariant. The stable creation of such mini black holes is found to be caused by the existence of macroscopic (so long-lived) black holes. This connection, by which macroscopic black holes induce mini black holes, is a topological expression of Machs principle. The proposed topological extension of GR can be tested because, if correct, the dark energy density of the universe should be linearly proportional to the total number of macroscopic black holes in the universe at any time. This prediction, although strange, agrees with current astrophysical observations.
We study equilibrium configurations of a homogenous ball of matter in a bootstrapped description of gravity which includes a gravitational self-interaction term beyond the Newtonian coupling. Both matter density and pressure are accounted for as sour ces of the gravitational potential for test particles. Unlike the general relativistic case, no Buchdahl limit is found and the pressure can in principle support a star of arbitrarily large compactness. By defining the horizon as the location where the escape velocity of test particles equals the speed of light, like in Newtonian gravity, we find a minimum value of the compactness for which this occurs. The solutions for the gravitational potential here found could effectively describe the interior of macroscopic black holes in the quantum theory, as well as predict consequent deviations from general relativity in the strong field regime of very compact objects.
