Details

"Dynamics of Extremal Black Holes" by Stefanos Aretakis is a mathematics book and learning resource focused on General Astronomy. Best for teachers, students, and readers looking for stronger mathematical understanding.

This Brief presents in a self-contained, non-technical and illustrative fashion the state-of-the-art results and techniques for the dynamics of extremal black holes. Extremal black holes are, roughly speaking, either maximally rotating or maximally charged. Astronomical observations suggest that near-extremal (stellar or supermassive) black holes are ubiquitous in the universe. The book presents various recently discovered characteristic phenomena (such as the horizon instability) that have enhanced our understanding of the dynamics of extremal black holes. The topics should be of interest to pure mathematicians, theoretical physicists and astronomers. This book provides common ground for communication between these scientific communities.

Best For: Students and researchers interested in the physics and mathematics of black holes, especially those focusing on gravitational and relativistic phenomena.
Focus: The dynamics and characteristic properties of extremal black holes, including those that are maximally rotating or charged.
Covers: Recent theoretical results and techniques related to extremal black holes, presented in a self-contained and illustrative manner without heavy technical jargon.
Why It Matters: Understanding extremal black holes is important because near-extremal black holes are common in the universe, making their study relevant for both theoretical physics and astronomical observations.
