Title Accelerated observers and the notion of singular spacetime Type Journal Article
Year 2018 Publication Classical and Quantum Gravity Abbreviated Journal Class. Quantum Gravity
Volume 35 Issue 5 Pages 055010 - 18pp
Keywords (down) general relativity; geodesic behaviour; black holes; spacetime singularities; modified theories of gravity
Abstract Geodesic completeness is typically regarded as a basic criterion to determine whether a given spacetime is regular or singular. However, the principle of general covariance does not privilege any family of observers over the others and, therefore, observers with arbitrary motions should be able to provide a complete physical description of the world. This suggests that in a regular spacetime, all physically acceptable observers should have complete paths. In this work we explore this idea by studying the motion of accelerated observers in spherically symmetric spacetimes and illustrate it by considering two geodesically complete black hole spacetimes recently described in the literature. We show that for bound and locally unbound accelerations, the paths of accelerated test particles are complete, providing further support to the regularity of such spacetimes.

Title Junction conditions in Palatini f(R) gravity Type Journal Article
Year 2020 Publication Classical and Quantum Gravity Abbreviated Journal Class. Quantum Gravity
Volume 37 Issue 21 Pages 215002 - 11pp
Keywords (down) f(R) gravity; junction conditions; Palatini approach; stellar structure
Abstract We work out the junction conditions for f(R) gravity formulated in metric-affine (Palatini) spaces using a tensor distributional approach. These conditions are needed for building consistent models of gravitating bodies with an interior and exterior regions matched at some hypersurface. Some of these conditions depart from the standard Darmois-Israel ones of general relativity and from their metric f(R) counterparts. In particular, we find that the trace of the stress-energy momentum tensor in the bulk must be continuous across the matching hypersurface, though its normal derivative need not to. We illustrate the relevance of these conditions by considering the properties of stellar surfaces in polytropic models, showing that the range of equations of state with potentially pathological effects is shifted beyond the domain of physical interest. This confirms, in particular, that neutron stars and white dwarfs can be safely modelled within the Palatini f(R) framework.

Title Nonsingular Charged Black Holes A La Palatini Type Journal Article
Year 2012 Publication International Journal of Modern Physics D Abbreviated Journal Int. J. Mod. Phys. D
Volume 21 Issue 8 Pages 1250067 - 6pp
Keywords (down) Extended theories of gravity; Palatini formalism; Planck scale
Abstract We argue that the quantum nature of matter and gravity should lead to a discretization of the allowed states of the matter confined in the interior of black holes. To support and illustrate this idea, we consider a quadratic extension of general relativity (GR) formulated a la Palatini and show that nonrotating, electrically charged black holes develop a compact core at the Planck density which is nonsingular if the mass spectrum satisfies a certain discreteness condition. We also find that the area of the core is proportional to the number of charges times the Planck area.

Title An infinite class of exact rotating black hole metrics of modified gravity Type Journal Article
Year 2022 Publication Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics Abbreviated Journal J. Cosmol. Astropart. Phys.
Volume 03 Issue 3 Pages 052 - 14pp
Keywords (down) Exact solutions; black holes and black hole thermodynamics in GR and beyond; Gauss-Bonnet-Lovelock-Horndeski-Palatini etc gravity theories; modified gravity
Abstract We build an infinite class of exact axisymmetric solutions of a metric-affine gravity theory, namely, Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld gravity, coupled to an anisotropic fluid as a matter source. The solution-generating method employed is not unique of this theory but can be extended to other Ricci-Based Gravity theories (RBGs), a class of theories built out of contractions of the Ricci tensor with the metric. This method exploits a correspondence between the space of solutions of General Relativity and that of RBGs, and is independent of the symmetries of the problem. For the particular case in which the fluid is identified with non-linear electromagnetic fields we explicitly derive the corresponding axisymmetric solutions. Finally, we use this result to work out the counterpart of the Kerr-Newman black hole when Maxwell electrodynamics is set on the metric-affine side. Our results open up an exciting new avenue for testing new gravitational phenomenology in the fields of gravitational waves and shadows out of rotating black holes.

Title The quantum, the geon and the crystal Type Journal Article
Year 2015 Publication International Journal of Modern Physics D Abbreviated Journal Int. J. Mod. Phys. D
Volume 24 Issue 9 Pages 1542013 - 15pp
Keywords (down) Effective geometries; crystalline structures; modified gravity; metric-affine approach; geons
Abstract Effective geometries arising from a hypothetical discrete structure of spacetime can play an important role in the understanding of the gravitational physics beyond General Relativity (GR). To discuss this question, we make use of lessons from crystalline systems within solid state physics, where the presence of defects in the discrete microstructure of the crystal determine the kind of effective geometry needed to properly describe the system in the macroscopic continuum limit. In this work, we study metric-affine theories with nonmetricity and torsion, which are the gravitational analog of crystalline structures with point defects and dislocations. We consider a crystal-motivated gravitational action and show the presence of topologically nontrivial structures (wormholes) supported by an electromagnetic field. Their existence has important implications for the quantum foam picture and the effective gravitational geometries. We discuss how the dialogue between solid state physics systems and modified gravitational theories can provide useful insights on both sides.
