Dirac quasinormal modes of the Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger dilaton black-hole spacetime
Adopting the P?schl?Teller potential approximation, the quasinormal frequencies of the massless Dirac fields are evaluated in the Garfinkle?Horowitz?Strominger dilaton black-hole spacetime. We find that the real parts of the quasinormal frequencies increase as the orbital angular momentum k or a increases, where a is a parameter related to the dilaton field. The magnitude of imaginary parts decreases with k for the fixed a and overtone number n, while for fixed k and n, it is not a monotonic function of a and has a maximum at a point near a = 1.4?1.6, where the waves decay most rapidly. Another interesting feature is that the imaginary parts tend to zero and the real parts to k/2 as a approaches 2. We also find that the variation of the imaginary parts with the real parts in the Garfinkle?Horowitz?Strominger dilaton hole spacetimes is nonlinear, which becomes more complex than that in the Reissner?Nordstr?m black-hole spacetime.

Scalar emission in a rotating Gödel black hole
We study the absorption probability and Hawking radiation of the scalar field in the rotating G\"odel black hole in minimal five-dimensional gauged supergravity. We find that G\"odel parameter $j$ imprints in the greybody factor and Hawking radiation. It plays a different role from the angular momentum of the black hole in the Hawking radiation and super-radiance. This information can help us know more about rotating G\"odel black holes in minimal five-dimensional gauged supergravity.

Phantom scalar emission in the Kerr black hole spacetime
We study the absorption probability and Hawking radiation spectra of a phantom scalar field in the Kerr black hole spacetime. We find that the presence of negative kinetic energy terms modifies the standard results in the graybody factor, super-radiance and Hawking radiation. Comparing with the usual scalar particle, the phantom scalar emission is enhanced in the black hole spacetime.

$P-V$ criticality of AdS black hole in $f(R)$ gravity
We study thermodynamics of a charged AdS black hole in the special $f(R)$ correction with the constant Ricci scalar curvature. Our results show that the the $f(R)$ correction influences the Gibbs free energy and the phase transition of system. The ratio $\rho_c$ occurred at the critical point increases monotonically with the derivative term $f'(R_0)$. We also disclose that the critical exponents are the same as those of the liquid-gas phase transition in the Van der Waals model, which does not depend on the $f(R)$ correction considered here.

Rotating charged black hole with Weyl corrections
We present firstly a four-dimensional spherical symmetric black hole with small Weyl corrections and find that with increasing Weyl corrections the region of the event horizon existence for the black hole in the parameter space increases for the negative Weyl coupling parameter and decreases for the positive one. Moreover, we also obtain a rotating charged black hole with weak Weyl corrections by the method of complex coordinate transformation. Our results show that the sign of Weyl coupling parameter $\alpha$ yields the different spatial topology of the event horizons for the black hole with its parameters lied in some special regions in the parameter space. We also analyze the dependence of the ergosphere on the Weyl coupling parameter $\alpha$ and find that with the increase of the Weyl corrections the ergosphere in the equatorial plane becomes thick for a black hole with $\alpha>0$, but becomes thin in the case with $\alpha<0$, which means that the energy extraction become easier in the background of a black hole with the positive Weyl coupling parameter, but more difficult in the background of a black hole with the negative one.

Particle acceleration on the background of the Kerr―Taub―NUT spacetime
Abstract We study the collision of two particles with the different rest masses moving in the equatorial plane of a Kerr–Taub–NUT spacetime and get the center-of-mass (CM) energy for the particles. We find that the CM energy depends not only on the rotation parameter, a , but also on the NUT charge of the Kerr–Taub–NUT spacetime, n . Especially, for the extremal Kerr–Taub–NUT spacetime, an unlimited CM energy can be approached if the parameter a is in the range [ 1 , 2 ] , which is different from that of the Kerr and Kerr–Newman black holes.

Matter bounce cosmology with the f(T) gravity
We show that the f(T) gravitational paradigm, in which gravity is described by an arbitrary function of the torsion scalar, can provide a mechanism for realizing bouncing cosmologies, thereby avoiding the Big Bang singularity. After constructing the simplest version of an f(T) matter bounce, we investigate the scalar and tensor modes of cosmological perturbations. Our results show that metric perturbations in the scalar sector lead to a background-dependent sound speed, which is a distinguishable feature from Einstein gravity. Additionally, we obtain a scale-invariant primordial power spectrum, which is consistent with cosmological observations, but suffers from the problem of a large tensor-to-scalar ratio. However, this can be avoided by introducing extra fields, such as a matter bounce curvaton.Communicated by P R L V Moniz

Dual Field Theories In (d-1)+1 Emergent Spacetimes From A Unifying Field Theory In d+2 Spacetime
According to two-time physics, there is more to space and time than can be garnered with the ordinary formulation of physics. Two-time physics has shown that the standard model of particles and forces is successfully reproduced by a two-time field theory in four space and two time dimensions projected as a holographic image on an emergent space-time in 3 + 1 dimensions. Among the successes of this approach is the resolution of the strong CP problem of QCD as an outcome of the restrictions imposed by the higher symmetry structures in 4 + 2 dimensions. In this paper we launch a program to construct the duals of the standard model as other holographic images of the same 4 + 2 dimensional theory on a variety of emergent spacetimes in 3 + 1 dimensions. These dual field theories are obtained as a family of gauge choices in the master 4 + 2 field theory. In the present paper we deal with some of the simpler gauge choices which lead to interacting Klein-Gordon field theories for the conformal scalar with a predicted SO(d,2) symmetry in a variety of interesting curved spacetimes in (d - 1) + 1 dimensions. More challenging and more interesting gauge choices (including some that relate to mass) which are left to future work are also outlined. Through this approach we discover a new realm of previously unexplored dualities and hidden symmetries that exist both in the macroscopic and microscopic worlds, at the classical and quantum levels. Such phenomena predicted by Two time physics (2T-physics) can in principle be confirmed both by theory and experiment. One time physics (IT-physics) can be used to analyze the predictions but in most instances gives no clue that the predicted phenomena exist in the first place. This point of view suggests a new paradigm for the construction of a fundamental theory that is likely to impact on the quest for unification.

REPLY TO THE COMMENT ON "NONCOMMUTATIVITY AS A POSSIBLE ORIGIN OF THE ULTRAHIGH-ENERGY COSMIC RAY AND THE TEV PHOTON PARADOXES"
A cogitative comment on Ref. 1 was given by the author of Ref. 2 arguing that the Lorentz-noninvariant modification of the kinematic dispersion law does not follow from deformed oscillator systems, and it cannot evade ultrahigh energy threshold anomalies by raising the respective thresholds. It is pointed out that the dispersion relations of a q-deformed boson and fermion are derived heedlessly and further study on noncommutative theories is necessary. However if such dispersion relations are assumed tenable, the tachyonic propagation and photon instability do not exist at all because the deviation from 1 in q must be imaginary.

Cosmic ray threshold anomaly and kinematics in the dS spacetime
We present a covariant framework of kinematics in the dS spacetime, which is a natural postulate of recent astronomical observations ($\Lambda>0)$. One-particle states are presented explicitly. It is noticed that the dispersion relation of free particles is dependent on the degrees of freedom of angular momentum and spin. This fact can be referred to as the effects of the cosmological constant on kinematics of particles. The kinematics in dS spacetime is used to investigate the phenomenon of ultra high energy cosmic rays. We emphasize the possibility of solving the threshold anomalies of the interactions between ultra high energy cosmic rays and soft photons in the covariant framework of kinematics in the dS spacetime.

Is the CMB asymmetry due to the kinematic dipole
Parity violation found in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation is a crucial clue for the non-standard cosmological model or the possible contamination of various foreground residuals and/or calibration of the CMB data sets. In this paper, we study the directional properties of the CMB parity asymmetry by excluding the $m=0$ modes in the definition of parity parameters. We find that the preferred directions of the parity parameters coincide with the CMB kinematic dipole, which implies that the CMB parity asymmetry may be connected with the possible contamination of the residual dipole component. We also find that such tendency is not only localized at $l=2,3$, but in the extended multipole ranges up to $l\sim 22$.
