All the (2+1)-dimensional circularly symmetric solutions with kinematic self-similarity of the second kind to the Einstein-massless-scalar field equations are found and their local and global properties are studied. It is found that some of them represent gravitational collapse of a massless scalar field, in which black holes are always formed.

Several physical natures of charged brane-world black holes are investigated. Firstly, the timelike and null geodesics of the charged brane-world black holes are presented. We also analyze all the possible motions by plotting the effective potentials for various parameters for circular and radial geodesics. Secondly, we investigate the motion of test particles in the gravitational field of the charged brane-world black holes using the Hamilton–Jacobi formalism. We consider charged and uncharged test particles and examine their behavior in both static and nonstatic cases. Thirdly, the thermodynamics of the charged brane-world black holes are studied. Finally, it is shown that there is no phenomenon of superradiance for an incident massless scalar field for such a black hole.

The (2+1)-dimensional geodesic circularly symmetric solutions of Einstein-massless-scalar field equations with negative cosmological constant are found and their local and global properties are studied. It is found that one of them represents gravitational collapse where black holes are always formed.

Self-similar solutions of a collapsing perfect fluid and a massless scalar field with kinematic self-similarity of the first kind in 2+1 dimensions are obtained. The local and global properties of the solutions are studied. It is found that some of them represent gravitational collapse, in which black holes are always formed, and some may be interpreted as representing cosmological models.

We study an analytical solution to the Einstein's equations in (2+1)-dimensions, representing the self-similar collapse of a circularly symmetric, minimally coupled, massless, scalar field. Depending on the value of certain parameters, this solution represents the formation of naked singularities. Since our solution is asymptotically flat, these naked singularities may be relevant for the weak cosmic censorship conjecture in (2+1)-dimensions.

A class of exact static spherically symmetric solutions of the Einstein–Maxwell gravity coupled to a massless scalar field is obtained in the harmonic coordinates of Minkowski space-time. For each value of the coupling constant a, these solutions are characterized by a set of three parameters, the physical mass μ0, the electric charge Q0 and the scalar-field parameter k. We find that the solutions for both gravitational and electromagnetic fields are not only affected by the scalar field, but also the nontrivial coupling with matter constrains the scalar field itself. In particular, we find that the constant k differs generically from ±1/2, falling into the interval [Formula: see text]. It takes these values only for black holes or in the case when a scalar field [Formula: see text] is totally decoupled from the matter. Our results differ from those previously obtained in that the presence of an arbitrary coupling constant a gives an opportunity to rule out the nonphysical horizons. In one of the special cases, the obtained solution corresponds to a charged dilatonic black hole with only one horizon μ+ and hence to the Kaluza–Klein case. The most remarkable property of this result is that the metric, the scalar curvature, and both the electromagnetic and scalar fields are all regular on this surface. Moreover, while studying the dilaton charge, we found that the inclusion of the scalar field in the theory resulted in a contraction of the horizon. The behavior of the scalar curvature was analysed.
