Soft hairs are an intrinsic infrared feature of a black hole, which may also affect near-horizon physics. In this work, we study some of the subtleties surrounding one of the primary observables with which we can study their effects in the context of Einstein’s gravity: the black hole shadow. First, we clarify the singular pathology associated with black holes with soft hairs and demonstrate that the metrics of linearly superrotated black holes are free of near-zone pathologies due to appropriate asymptotic falloff conditions being imposed on the event horizon. We then analytically construct the photon orbits around such black holes, derive the shadow equation for near-zone observers, and find that the linear superrotation hairs deform the circular shadow of a bald Schwarzchild black hole into an ellipse. This is in sharp contrast to their supertranslated counterparts, which only shift the position of the center of the circular shadow but do not change its shape. Our results suggest a richness to the observable effects due to the infrared structures of Einstein’s gravity. Published by the American Physical Society2025

Owing to our work in part I of this series of papers, it is understood that the analytically known black hole solutions in the theory of ghost-free multimetric gravity can be split into three distinct classes and that one of these classes—the proportional branch—exhibits the Gregory-Laflamme instability at linear level in the metric perturbations, whenever the black hole horizon size is smaller than (roughly) the Compton wavelength of the theory’s lightest massive graviton. In this first of two sequels, we determine the linear stability of the two remaining classes of black hole solutions—the nonproportional and partially proportional branches—and discuss how our results likely differ at nonlinear level. We also give a general prescription to construct multimetric solutions describing black holes endowed with massive graviton hair, which may constitute the end state of the instability in the proportional branch. We utilize a tractable example model involving three metrics to see how this works in practice and determine the asymptotic form of its corresponding hairy solutions at infinity, where one can clearly see the individual contributions from each of the graviton mass modes.

In conformal field theories, in contrast to some auxiliary states into the bipartite mixed state ρAB as the usual purifications do, we show a pure entangled state ψAB can be constructed by the undetectable regions. In this pure state ψAB, the von Neumann entropy SvN(A:B) naturally captures quantum entanglement between A and B. We verify that SvN(A:B) is equal to the entanglement wedge cross section EW in anti–de Sitter spacetime, which is conjectured to be the holographic dual of the entanglement of purification.

M-theory frozen singularities are (locally) D- or E-type orbifold singularities with a background fractional C3-monodromy surrounding them. In this paper, we revisit such backgrounds and address several puzzling features of their physics. We first give a top-down derivation of how the D- or E-type 7D N=1 gauge theory directly “freezes” to a lower-rank gauge theory due to the C3 background. This relies on a Hanany-Witten effect of fractional M5 branes and the presence of a gauge anomaly of fractional Dp probes in the circle reduction. Additionally, we compute defect groups and 8D symmetry topological field theories of the 7D frozen theories in several duality frames. We apply our results to understanding the evenness condition of strings ending on O7+ planes, and calculating the global forms of supergravity gauge groups of M-theory compactified on T4/Γ with frozen singularities. We also revisit IIA ADE singularities with a C1-monodromy along a 1-cycle in the boundary lens space and show that this freezes the gauge degrees of freedom via confinement.

The number of gravitons emitted during binary inspiral is found to be remarkably close to (though slightly larger than) the radiated angular momentum in units of 2ℏ. This (∼1%) closeness holds both for an infinitesimal change in the eccentricity, and for the total graviton number emitted during inspiral from a large eccentricity initial orbit down to negligible final eccentricity.

This work investigates the capability of future lepton colliders to determine the sign of the gauge-Higgs coupling through the vector boson fusion Zh process. This channel offers a model-independent way to probe the sign of the gauge-Higgs coupling. Its sensitivity to interference effects and universal coupling with new physics makes it particularly effective. We show that a high-energy lepton collider such as CLIC can fully determine the sign of the gauge-Higgs coupling in a model-independent way and with high confidence.

We study spherical evolution in scalar-Gauss-Bonnet gravity with additional Ricci coupling and use the gauge-invariant approach introduced recently by Reall to track well-posedness. Our results show that loss of hyperbolicity when it occurs, is due to the behavior of physical degrees of freedom. They provide further support to the idea that this behavior can be tamed by additional interactions of the scalar. We also point out a limitation of this gauge-invariant approach: the fact that field redefinitions can change the character of the evolution equations. Published by the American Physical Society2025

Within the framework of nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD) effective field theory, we study the leptoproduction of J/ψ at next-to-leading order in perturbative QCD for both unpolarized and polarized electron-ion collisions. We demonstrate that the J/ψ-tagged deep inelastic scattering in the future Electron-Ion Collider can be served as a golden channel for reasons including constraining NRQCD long-distance matrix elements, probing the nuclear gluon distribution functions, as well as investigating the gluon helicity distribution inside a longitudinal polarized proton.

Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) with pure imaginary baryon number chemical potential μ=iθT, where T is temperature and θ is a real number, has the Roberge-Weiss periodicity. We study the θ-dependence of the baryon number density and the pressure in the hadron resonance gas model with excluded volume effects of baryons. It is shown that the baryon number density and the pressure are smooth periodic functions of θ at low or high temperature. However, they have singular behavior at θ=(2k+1)π where k is an integer, when T∼211MeV. This temperature is consistent with the Roberge-Weiss transition temperature TRW obtained by lattice QCD simulations. This singularity can be explained by the dual excluded volume effects in which the roles of pointlike and nonpointlike particles are exchanged each other in the ordinary excluded volume effects. It is also indicated that the excluded volume effect is visible just below TRW and is directly detectable by the lattice QCD simulation at finite θ. We compare the results with the one obtained by the Polyakov-loop extended Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model. Published by the American Physical Society2025

Individual quarks and gluons at small x inside an unpolarized hadron can be regarded as Bell states in which qubits in the spin and orbital angular momentum spaces are maximally entangled. Using the machinery of quantum information science, we generalize this observation to all values 0<x<1 and describe gluons (but not quarks) as maximally entangled states between a qubit and a qudit. We introduce the conditional probability distribution P(lz|sz) of a gluon’s orbital angular momentum lz given its helicity sz. Restricting to the three states lz=0,±1, which constitute a qutrit, we explicitly compute P as a function of x. Published by the American Physical Society2025
