Violation of bound on chaos for charged probe in Kerr-Newman-AdS black hole

B Gwak, N Kan, BH Lee, H Lee - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 - Springer
A bstract We investigate the conjectured bound on the Lyapunov exponent for a charged
particle with angular motion in the Kerr-Newman-AdS black hole. The Lyapunov exponent is …

Chaos in Schwarzschild spacetime: The motion of a spinning particle

S Suzuki, K Maeda - Physical Review D, 1997 - APS
We study the motion of a spinning test particle in Schwarzschild spacetime, analyzing the
Poincaré map and the Lyapunov exponent. We find chaotic behavior for a particle with spin …

A periodic table for black hole orbits

J Levin, G Perez-Giz - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2008 - APS
Understanding the dynamics around rotating black holes is imperative to the success of
future gravitational wave observatories. Although integrable in principle, test-particle orbits …

Bound on the Lyapunov exponent in Kerr-Newman black holes via a charged particle

N Kan, B Gwak - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
We investigate the conjecture on the upper bound of the Lyapunov exponent for the chaotic
motion of a charged particle around a Kerr-Newman black hole. The Lyapunov exponent is …

Binary black hole shadows, chaotic scattering and the Cantor set

JO Shipley, SR Dolan - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate the qualitative features of binary black hole shadows using the model of two
extremally charged black holes in static equilibrium (a Majumdar–Papapetrou solution). Our …

The mixmaster universe is chaotic

NJ Cornish, JJ Levin - Physical Review Letters, 1997 - APS
For the past decade there has been a considerable debate about the existence of chaos in
the mixmaster cosmological model. The debate has been hampered by the coordinate, or …

Mixmaster universe: A chaotic Farey tale

NJ Cornish, JJ Levin - Physical Review D, 1997 - APS
When gravitational fields are at their strongest, the evolution of spacetime is thought to be
highly erratic. Over the past decade debate has raged over whether this evolution can be …

Homoclinic orbit and the violation of the chaos bound around a black hole with anisotropic matter fields

S Jeong, BH Lee, H Lee, W Lee - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
We study the homoclinic orbit and the violation of chaos bound, which are obtained by
particle motions around a black hole that coexist with anisotropic matter fields. The …
