A link between the possibility of extending a geodesically incomplete kinked spacetime to a spacetime which is geodesically complete and the energy conditions is discussed for the case of a cylindrically-symmetric spacetime kink. It is concluded that neither the strong nor the weak energy condition can be satisfied in the four-dimensional example, though the latter condition may survive on the transversal sections of such a spacetime. It is also shown that the matter which propagates quantum-mechanically in a kinked spacetime can always be trapped by closed timelike curves, but signaling connections between that matter and any possible observer can only be made of totally incoherent radiation, so preventing observation of causality violation.

In this paper, the RS-II model of brane gravity is considered for the phantom universe using a nonlinear equation of state. Phantom fluid is known to violate the weak energy condition. It is found that this characteristic of phantom energy is affected drastically by the negative brane tension λ of the RS-II model. It is interesting to see that up to a certain value of energy density ρ satisfying ρ/λ < 1, the weak energy condition is violated and the universe superaccelerates. But, as ρ increases more, only the strong energy condition is violated and the universe accelerates. When 1 < ρ/λ < 2, even the strong energy condition is not violated and the universe decelerates. Expansion of the universe stops when ρ = 2 λ. This is contrary to earlier results of the phantom universe exhibiting acceleration only.

The energy-momentum localization for a new four-dimensional and spherically symmetric, charged black hole solution that through a coupling of general relativity with non-linear electrodynamics is everywhere non-singular while it satisfies the weak energy condition, is investigated. The Einstein and Møller energy-momentum complexes have been employed in order to calculate the energy distribution and the momenta for the aforesaid solution. It is found that the energy distribution depends explicitly on the mass and the charge of the black hole, on two parameters arising from the space-time geometry considered, and on the radial coordinate. Further, in both prescriptions all the momenta vanish. In addition, a comparison of the results obtained by the two energy-momentum complexes is made, whereby some limiting and particular cases are pointed out.

In this work, we present a regular black hole solution, in the context of scale-dependent General Relativity, satisfying the weak energy condition. The source of this solution is an anisotropic effective energy–momentum tensor which appears when the scale dependence of the theory is turned-on. In this sense, the solution can be considered as a semiclassical extension of the Schwarzschild one.

We construct and study here a class of collapsing scalar field models with a nonzero potential. The weak energy condition is satisfied by the collapsing configuration and it is shown that the end state of collapse could be either a black hole or a naked singularity. It is seen that physically it is the rate of collapse that governs these outcomes of the dynamical evolution. The implications for the cosmic censorship conjecture are discussed.

Abstract We prove a positive volume theorem for asymptotically AdS spacetimes: the maximal volume slice has nonnegative vacuum-subtracted volume, and the vacuum-subtracted volume vanishes if and only if the spacetime is identically pure AdS. Under the Complexity=Volume proposal, this constitutes a positive holographic complexity theorem. The result features a number of parallels with the positive energy theorem, including the assumption of an energy condition that excludes false vacuum decay (the AdS weak energy condition). Our proof is rigorously established in broad generality in four bulk dimensions, and we provide strong evidence in favor of a generalization to arbitrary dimensions. Our techniques also yield a holographic proof of Lloyd’s bound for a class of bulk spacetimes. We further establish a partial rigidity result for wormholes: wormholes with a given throat size are more complex than AdS-Schwarzschild with the same throat size.

We outline the basic properties of regular black holes, their remnants and self-gravitating solitons G-lumps with the de Sitter and phantom interiors, which can be considered as heavy dark matter (DM) candidates generically related to a dark energy (DE). They are specified by the condition T t t = T r r and described by regular solutions of the Kerr-Shild class. Solutions for spinning objects can be obtained from spherical solutions by the Newman-Janis algorithm. Basic feature of all spinning objects is the existence of the equatorial de Sitter vacuum disk in their deep interiors. Energy conditions distinguish two types of their interiors, preserving or violating the weak energy condition dependently on violation or satisfaction of the energy dominance condition for original spherical solutions. For the 2-nd type the weak energy condition is violated and the interior contains the phantom energy confined by an additional de Sitter vacuum surface. For spinning solitons G-lumps a phantom energy is not screened by horizons and influences their observational signatures, providing a source of information about the scale and properties of a phantom energy. Regular BH remnants and G-lumps can form graviatoms binding electrically charged particles. Their observational signature is the electromagnetic radiation with the frequencies depending on the energy scale of the interior de Sitter vacuum within the range available for observations. A nontrivial observational signature of all DM candidates with de Sitter interiors predicted by analysis of dynamical equations is the induced proton decay in an underground detector like IceCUBE, due to non-conservation of baryon and lepton numbers in their GUT scale false vacuum interiors.
