Rotating black holes embedded in a cosmological background for scalar-tensor theories

Abstract

Abstract We present solutions of DHOST theories describing a rotating black hole embedded in an expanding universe. The solution is constructed by conformal transformation of a stealth Kerr(-de Sitter) black hole. The conformal factor depends explicitly on the scalar field — but not on its derivative — and defines the new theory. The scalar field of the stealth Kerr(-de Sitter) solution depends on time, leading to the time-dependence of the obtained conformal metric, with cosmological asymptotics at large distances. We study the properties of the obtained metric by considering regular null geodesic congruences, and identify trapping black hole and cosmological horizons.
