abstract
Motivated by novel results in the theory of wave dynamics in black-hole spacetimes, we analyze the dynamics of a massive scalar field surrounding a rapidly rotating Kerr black hole. In particular, we report on the existence of stationary (infinitely long-lived) regular field configurations in the background of maximally rotating black holes. The effective height of these scalar "clouds" above the central black hole is determined analytically. Our results support the possible existence of stationary scalar field dark matter distributions surrounding rapidly rotating black holes.

Scalar clouds around black holes in mass-varying dark matter halos exist only for quantized scalar-dark matter couplings set by halo parameters such as compactness.
Numerical study of thin accretion disk images shows that increasing parity-odd scalar hair on Kerr black holes shrinks and distorts the photon ring and shadow, producing multiple disconnected shadows and chaotic lensing features in strong-hair regimes.
Bound states of a massive scalar field around topological stars form strictly normal modes, producing a hydrogen-like spectrum when the Compton wavelength exceeds the star size and localized states otherwise.
Black-hole superradiance extracts energy via the ergoregion and can trigger instabilities with applications to dark matter, beyond-Standard-Model physics, and laboratory analogs.
Boson stars are particle-like solutions in general relativity that model dark matter, black hole mimickers, and binary systems.
A review summarizing the state of the art in black hole quasinormal modes, ringdown waveform modeling, current LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observations, and prospects for LISA and next-generation detectors.
