Neutral regular black hole solution in generalized Rastall gravity

  • We investigate the static, spherically symmetric regular black hole solutions in the generalized Rastall gravity. In particular, the prescription of Rastall gravity implies that the present approach does not necessarily involve nonlinear electrodynamics. Subsequently, the resulting regular black hole solutions can be electrically and magnetically neutral. The general properties of the regular black hole solutions are explored. Moreover, specific solutions are derived and discussed, particularly regarding the parameter related to the degree of violation of the energy-momentum conservation in the Rastall theory.

Abstract: We investigate the static, spherically symmetric regular black hole solutions in the generalized Rastall gravity. In particular, the prescription of Rastall gravity implies that the present approach does not necessarily involve nonlinear electrodynamics. Subsequently, the resulting regular black hole solutions can be electrically and magnetically neutral. The general properties of the regular black hole solutions are explored. Moreover, specific solutions are derived and discussed, particularly regarding the parameter related to the degree of violation of the energy-momentum conservation in the Rastall theory.

    1.   Introduction
    • The black hole is an interesting prediction of general relativity, a compact celestial body with enormous mass and immense gravity. Since 2015, LIGO and Virgo collaborations have detected gravitational waves emanating from the coalescence of black holes [1-6], which is one of the most crucial proofs of the existence of black holes. According to the Penrose-Hawking singularity theorems [7], a singularity might accompany black hole solutions. In the vicinity of a singularity, as the spacetime curvature approaches and exceeds the Planck value, the notion of classical spacetime ceases to be valid. Fortunately, in view of the cosmic censorship hypothesis proposed by Penrose, it is understood that the singularity is typically hidden behind the event horizon. The latter is a one-way membrane which prevents the singularity from affecting any observer located outside the horizon. Nonetheless, the concept of singularity in black hole physics plays a vital role concerning the information problem [8, 9], as well as the final fate of a black hole, associated with the evaporation due to the Hawking radiation [10, 11]. Alternatively, a somewhat conservative approach is to pursue a regular and effective geometric description of a region of black hole spacetime, which otherwise would be singular. One might aim for a moderate framework for analyzing many crucial physical problems without introducing significant deviations from the standard model. In this regard, in 1968, Bardeen proposed a regular black holes metric, where a region of nonsingular spacetime substitutes the central singularity [12]. On the other hand, this metric asymptotically coincides with the Schwarzschild solution at infinity. Subsequently, following this line of thought, various models for regular black holes were proposed [13-17]. It was argued later that black hole solutions could be physically interpreted in terms of nonlinear electrodynamics with magnetic monopole [18, 19]. Further investigations of the quasinormal modes of the regular black hole metrics have also been carried out [20-24], and the corresponding metrics were shown to be stable against various types of perturbations. However, nonlinear electrodynamics encounters several potential difficulties. First, the astronomical objects are by and large electrically neutral, or do not carry a substantial amount of charge. Second, while the (linear) quantum electrodynamics is one of the most validated theories in physics, there is still a lack of strong experimental support for nonlinear electrodynamics. Finally, the constructed regular black hole solution usually requires the concept of magnetic monopole, which is a hypothetical elementary particle. Moreover, owing to cosmic inflation, only an insignificant amount of magnetic monopoles might persist in the observable Universe.

      In view of the above discussion, the present study is an attempt to investigate regular black hole solutions in the framework of the Rastall theory. The derived solutions can be electrically and magnetically neutral. Rastall gravity was proposed in 1972 by Rastall [25], as a generalization of Einstein's general relativity. It is proposed that the conservation of energy-momentum tensor in curved spacetime can be relaxed, and it attains the form

      Tνμ;ν=aμ,

      (1)

      where aμ should vanish in a flat spacetime so that in this case the theory restores Einstein's gravity.

      In his original work, Rastall assumes

      aμ=λμR,

      (2)

      and therefore the field equation becomes

      Rμν12gμνR=κ(TμνλgμνR),

      (3)

      where κ=8πG/c4 and λ is a constant. As a theory of modified gravity, Rastall gravity has received increasing attention lately [26-44], particularly due to recent findings in cosmology [45-54].

      In a recent study [44], it is pointed out that in accordance with Rastall's original proposal, aμ can adopt other forms besides Eq. (2). This is because the only requirement is that aμ vanishes in flat spacetime [25], as this does not lead to any conflict with present observations. In this context, we assume

      aμ=νAνμ,

      (4)

      where Aνμ=Aμν, and the field equation can be written as

      Rμν12gμνR=κ(TμνAμν).

      (5)

      Here, Aμν as well as its derivatives must be sufficiently small where the curvature of the spacetime vanishes. It is straightforward to show that one can formally express various modified theories of gravity, such as f(R) gravity and quadratic gravity, with the above generalized form of Rastall gravity [41, 44].

      In this work, we investigate Rastall gravity with

      Aμν=λgμνH(R),

      (6)

      where H=H(R) is an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar. According to the above discussion, one requires that H=0 in flat spacetime, where R=0. In the remainder of the paper, it is shown that one may derive regular black hole solutions for Rastall gravity determined by Eq. (6).

      The paper is organized as follows. In the next section, we discuss the general properties of regular black holes. The specific form of the line element is given explicitly. In Section 3, we provide a detailed account of the construction of the regular black hole solution in Rastall gravity, which assumes Eq. (6). Further discussions and concluding remarks are given in the last section.

    2.   Properties of regular black holes
    • In this section, we discuss the general properties of the metric of a regular black hole and derive the relevant requirements that need to be fulfilled. We start by considering the following form of the static, spherically symmetric metric in four-dimensional spacetime,

      ds2=f(r)dt2+dr2f(r)+r2(dθ2+sin2θdφ2),

      (7)

      where

      f(r)=12M(r)r=12M0rCM(r).

      (8)

      Here, M0 is the mass of a black hole as measured by an inertial observer sitting at infinity, and the parameter CM is introduced in the last equality which satisfies CM1 as r. In what follows, we derive the condition for a regular solution of the black hole at r=0 in terms of CM(r).

      To avoid a singularity, the curvature of spacetime must not diverge. In practice, this is achieved by investigating the convergence of the relevant scalar quantities, namely, R=gμνRμν, R=RαβRαβ and R=RαβγσRαβγσ. For a static regular black hole, we find

      R=2M0r2(2CM+rCM),R=2M20r4(4C2M+r2C2M),R=4M20r6[12C2M+4rCM(rCM4CM)+r2(r2C2M4rCMCM+8C2M)],

      (9)

      where CMdCMdr and CMd2CMdr2. In the vicinity of r=0, we assume CMrαcenter+O(rαcenter). By substituting this condition into the above scalars and expanding around r=0, one finds that the requirement of convergence implies a condition αcenter3. On the other hand, one has CM1 as r, which usually does not lead to any divergence of the curvature. The above condition should be satisfied for any regular black hole solution.

      Let us now discuss the properties of the metric near the black hole horizon. If one denotes the horizon by rp, for f(rp)=0 one has

      f(r)=1rpCM(r)rCM(rp).

      (10)

      Therefore, the condition rp>0 implies CM(rp)>0. The temperature at the horizon is

      TH=1rpCp4πrp,

      (11)

      where Cp=CM/CM|r=rp.

      In literature, in order to derive a metric for the regular black hole, one introduces a nonlinear electrodynamic field in the system. Alternatively, it is shown in the following section that a static regular black hole solution can be found in Rastall gravity in terms of H(R).

    3.   Regular black holes in Rastall gravity
    • In the static, spherically symmetric black hole metric, the energy-momentum tensor of a given type of fluid surrounding the black hole can be written as [26, 55]

      Ttt=ρ(r),Tij=ρ(r)α[βδij(1+3β)rirjrnrn],

      (12)

      where ρ and p are the energy density and pressure of the matter field. After averaging over the angle in an isotropic system, the spatial components read

      Tij=α3ρδij=pδij,

      (13)

      where we have used rirj=13δijrnrn. For the barotropic equation of state, we have [26, 55]

      p=ωρ,ω=α3,β=1+3ω6ω.

      (14)

      The corresponding energy-momentum tensor takes the following form

      Ttt=Trr=ρ(r),Tθθ=Tφφ=12(1+3ω)ρ(r).

      (15)

      Now, by substituting the static black hole metric, Eq. (7), into the field equations of the Rastall theory, Eq. (5) and Eq. (6), one obtains

      rf(r)+f(r)1+κ[r2ρ(r)+λr2H]=0,rf(r)+2f(r)+κ[2λrH(1+3ω)rρ(r)]=0,

      (16)

      while the equation for the energy-momentum tensor, Eq. (1), becomes

      ρ(r)+31+ωrρ(r)+λdHdr=0.

      (17)

      We note that Eq. (17) is not independent since it is implied by Eq. (16). Here, H=H(R) is a function of the Ricci scalar, which determines the specific form of the metric while satisfying Eq. (17).

      By solving Eqs. (16) and (17), one finds

      H=(1+3ω)(f(r)1)+3(1+ω)rf(r)+r2f(r)3r2λκ(1+ω),ρ(r)=r2f(r)2f(r)+23κ(1+ω)r2,

      (18)

      which can be rewritten in terms of CM by making use of Eq. (8)

      H=2M0(1+3ω)CM(r)+rCM(r)3κλ(1+ω)r2,ρ(r)=2M02CM(r)rCM(r)3κ(1+ω)r2.

      (19)

      We are now in a position to study the conditions under which the above solution is indeed regular. According to the discussion above, in flat spacetime H(R) satisfies the condition

      H0asR0.

      (20)

      This also implies that H(R)0 as r. On the other hand, it is also required that ρ(r) does not possess any singularity in the entire range r[0,+). By making use of the properties of the curvature scalars and CM(r) discussed previously, we find the desired conditions

      CM(r0)rαcenterwithαcenter3,CM(r)1+rαinfinitywithαinfinity<0.

      (21)

      The above conditions, Eq. (21), can be satisfied when CM is in the form of a fraction, where both numerator and denominator are polynomials in r. The first line of Eq. (21) dictates that the lowest degree of the monomials in the numerator is at least three orders larger than that in the denominator. The second line of Eq. (21) implies that the highest degree of the monomials in the numerator must be smaller than that in the denominator. As a simple illustration, a possible solution reads

      CM(r)=r3r3+2σ2,

      (22)

      where σ is a constant. If σ=0, the corresponding metric is not regular. For σ0, we have a regular black hole solution

      f(r)=12M0r2r3+2σ2,ρ(r)=24M0σ2r3κ(1+ω)(r3+2σ2)3,H=12M0σ2(ω1)r3+2(ω+1)σ2κλ(1+ω)(r3+2σ2)3,R=24M0σ24σ2r3(r3+2σ2)3.

      (23)

      In fact, the above solution can readily be identified as the Hayward regular black hole [13]. Moreover, the above results imply that r=r(R). Subsequently, one finds the following relation

      H(R)=3B2R2(ω1)[B2M1/302RM2/30]2σBRκλ(1+ω)(B22RM1/30)3,

      (24)

      where B=(R3/281σ2R+8M09σR2)1/3. Obviously, Eq. (24) satisfies the condition that H(R)0 as R0. Therefore, we have constructed regular black hole solutions in Rastall gravity, and in particular, we note that ω1.

    4.   Further discussions and concluding remarks
    • Following the original idea proposed by Rastall, the conservation of the energy-momentum tensor is generalized in this work to the form

      μTμν=λνH(R),

      (25)

      while the corresponding field equation reads

      Rμν12gμνR=κ(TμνλgμνH(R)),

      (26)

      where H(R) vanishes in flat spacetime.

      In previous sections, we have shown that the regular black hole solutions can be derived in the framework of Rastall gravity. As discussed above, the obtained black hole spacetime can be electrically neutral, which does not involve nonlinear electrodynamics nor the associated theoretical speculations. In this sense, the present study provides a novel possibility for models of regular black holes.

      The constructed black hole spacetime is surrounded by a matter field, described by the energy-momentum tensor, Eq. (15). However, to guarantee that the solution is nonsingular, one finds that the equation of state of the matter field has to satisfy the condition ω1. In other words, the dark energy model in terms of the cosmological constant cannot be a candidate for hosting the regular black hole solution considered.

      On the other hand, when assuming Tμν=0, the static black hole solution found in the present model is no longer regular. However, interestingly enough, in this case one can show that the resulting metric is equivalent to an (anti-)de Sitter spacetime. To demonstrate this point, one first contracts both sides of Eq. (26) by gμν to obtain

      4λκH(R)R=0.

      (27)

      This is an algebraic equation, and in general it has a non-vanishing root at R, besides the one at the origin. Thus, one may rewrite Eq. (26) as follows

      Rμν=gμν(12RκλH(R))gμνΛeff,

      (28)

      where R is a non-zero root of Eq. (27). For the reason which will shortly become clear, Λeff is defined as the effective cosmological constant, and one has

      R=4Λeff,H=Λeffκλ.

      (29)

      As a result, the metric Eq. (7) can be written as

      f(r)=12MrΛeff3r2.

      (30)

      Even though the cosmological constant is not an ad hoc assumption in the field equation, the properties of the resulting metric indicate that it is a de Sitter spacetime. Therefore, it arises naturally from the consistency of the theory. For instance, let us consider the case where Λeff>0. The de Sitter background is realized in the context of the present generalized Rastall gravity in terms of the effective cosmological constant Λeff=R4. If one chooses H(R)=Rn with n>1 and λ>0, one finds

      R=4Λeff=(14κλ)1n1,H=Λeffκλ=(14κλ)nn1,Λeff=14(14κλ)1n1.

      (31)

      Moreover, it is not difficult to show that one can further extend the above considerations to rotating black holes in the presence of the (linear) Maxwell field. In this case, the gravitational field equation is given by

      Rμν12gμνR+κλgμνR2FμαFαν+12gμνFαβFαβ=0,

      (32)

      where the electromagnetic tensor Fμν=μAννAμ satisfies the Maxwell equations

      μ(gFμν)=0.

      (33)

      We note that Eq. (32) still reduces to Eq. (27) when both sides are contracted by gμν, as the two terms involving the electromagnetic tensor cancel out. This implies that we again get an equation similar to Eq. (28)

      Rμν2FμαFαν+12gμνFαβFαβ=gμν(12RκλH(R))gμνΛeff,

      (34)

      where R and H(R) still satisfy Eq. (29).

      This result gives the Kerr-Newman (anti-)de Sitter black hole metric in Rastall gravity, namely,

      ds2=ΔrΞ2ρ2(dtasin2θdφ)2+ΔθΞ2ρ2sin2θ×(adt(r2+a2)dφ)2+ρ2Δrdr2+ρ2Δθdθ2,

      (35)

      where the electromagnetic potential is Aμ=QrΞρ2(δtμasin2θδφμ), and Q and a are the electrical charge and angular momentum per unit mass, respectively. Also,

      ρ2=r2+a2cos2θ,Ξ=1+a23Λeff,Δr=(1r23Λeff)(r2+a2)2Mr+Q2,Δθ=1+a2cos2θ3Λeff.

      (36)

      The above (anti-)de Sitter black hole solution is physically intriguing, since it emerges entirely from the vacuum Rastall equation without the cosmological constant, which probably may lead to further implications in cosmology. More effort along this line of thought is under progress.

      To summarize, we studied the static, spherically symmetric black hole solutions in generalized Rastall gravity. An essential feature of the derived solutions is that the black holes can be electrically and magnetically neutral, which is distinct from most literature on this topic where the nonlinear electrodynamic field is involved. We also discussed the general properties of the regular black hole solutions.
