Causal sets can approximate black hole horizons via discrete timelike curves and ladders tracing null geodesics, with a discrete expansion changing sign across the horizon in a 1+1D toy model.

Fitting GRAVITY flare astrometry to solitonic boson star models requires masses larger than 4.3 million solar masses, with more diffuse models yielding values closer to the standard black hole mass and thus placing stringent but incomplete constraints on such interpretations of Sgr A*.
Bayesian analysis shows current near-IR astrometry data cannot distinguish massive boson stars from Schwarzschild black holes for Sgr A*.
