abstract
We add black holes to nonrotating, spherical galaxy models, with the assumption that the black-hole growth is slow compared with the dynamical time but fast compared with the relaxation time. The outcome differs depending on whether the core of the initial galaxy does or does not resemble that of an isothermal sphere. For the isothermal case the previously-known results are confirmed and sharpened: the black hole induces cusps in the density ($\rho\sim r^{-3/2}$) and velocity dispersion ($v^2\sim r^{-1}$), and a tangential anisotropy in the velocity distribution away from the center. For the non-isothermal case the induced density cusp is steeper, and the induced anisotropy is larger and penetrates right to the center. The cusp around the black hole is insensitive to anisotropy in the initial velocity distribution, and also to the origin of the black hole, unless its mass comes exclusively from the stars of lowest angular momentum, in which case the cusp is suppressed. We discuss the implications for the interpretation of evidence for massive black holes in galactic nuclei.

Dark matter energy exchange in stars orbiting supermassive black holes
Orbit-averaged elastic DM scattering in S4714 reaches stellar luminosity at σ_χp ∼ 10^{-36} cm² (MeV–GeV) and σ_χe ∼ 5×10^{-38} cm² (sub-MeV) for a spiked profile.

Dark matter explanations for the neutrino emission from the Seyfert galaxy NGC 1068
Dark matter annihilations inside the black hole's density spike in NGC 1068 could produce the IceCube neutrino excess while staying hidden from gamma-ray and Milky Way searches.

Boosted Dark Matter from Sagittarius A$^\star$
The nuclear star cluster around Sgr A* is the dominant source of gravitationally boosted dark matter in the Milky Way, with particles up to ~25,000 km/s that enhance sub-GeV detection prospects independently of the DM model.

Static Dark Fluid Thin Shells in Schwarzschild-de Sitter Spacetimes: Stability and Black Hole Shadows
Stable static dark-fluid shells separating two Schwarzschild–de Sitter spacetimes exist only for m_+/m_->1 and arise at three scales, imprinting observable black-hole shadow deviations.

Cosmic-ray boosted inelastic dark matter from neutrino-emitting active galactic nuclei
A cosmic-ray boosted, inelastic dark matter flux from two neutrino-emitting AGNs gives new Super-K and XENONnT limits that reach part of the thermal freeze-out target for sub-GeV dark matter.

Can Orbital Decay of Accreting Binary Pulsars Probe Dark Matter?
Dark matter accretion onto binary pulsars is far too weak to affect observed orbital decay, so existing pulsar timing data cannot probe dark matter microphysics.

Indirect dark matter searches with neutrino telescopes via energetic cosmic showers
Bounds on Z'-mediated dark matter are derived from neutrino telescopes, freeze-in, and cosmic strings, but the telescope bounds rest on comparing a Galactic-center flux to faraway sources.
