The general relativistic Poynting-Robertson effect is a dissipative and non-linear dynamical system obtained by perturbing through radiation processes the geodesic motion of test particles orbiting around a spinning compact object, described by the Kerr metric. Using the Melnikov method we find that, in a suitable range of parameters, chaotic behavior is present in the motion of a test particle driven by the Poynting-Robertson effect in the Kerr equatorial plane.

  1. Chaotic orbital dynamics of pulsating stars around black holes surrounded by dark matter halos

    gr-qc 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Spherically symmetric pulsations trigger homoclinic chaos in orbits around black holes enclosed by dark matter halos, unlike the vacuum Schwarzschild case.

  2. Bounds for Lyapunov exponent of circular light orbits in black holes

    gr-qc 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For any static, spherically symmetric black hole obeying Einstein's equations and the dominant energy condition, the circular photon orbit's Lyapunov exponent is bounded by the photon-sphere surface gravity, the Unruh...

  3. Extreme-Mass-Ratio Inspirals Embedded in Dark Matter Halo: Existence of Homoclinic Orbit and Horizon-Induced Chaos

    gr-qc 2025-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A Schwarzschild black hole embedded in a Dehnen dark-matter halo admits homoclinic orbits, and raising halo density, scale radius, or particle energy drives near-horizon motion from regular to chaotic while respecting...
