N-body simulations demonstrate runaway GW BBH mergers in dense BH clusters (≥5×10^9 M⊙/pc³) produce ~10³ M⊙ IMBHs within 10 Myr.
Simulations show VMS in star clusters reach 10^3-10^4 solar masses with dimensionless spins >10 under bloated accretion conditions, potentially forming spinning IMBHs that produce GW bursts like GW190521.
