Self-consistent spherical accretion simulations show cooling-enhanced growth of PBHs with radiative efficiency ~10^{-2} in the bremsstrahlung regime, yielding a critical seed mass of ~10^{-16} M_sun to consume a solar-mass star in a Hubble time.

Capture-driven growth model predicts M ≈ 10^5 M_⊙ × (σ/50 km s^{-1})^{2.5}, requiring the M-σ relation to flatten to 2.26 < β < 2.5 below 10^5 M_⊙.
Simulations demonstrate that a retrograde IMBH with mass ratio ~0.67 to the disc mass fragments a stellar disc into inner, misaligned, and outer components within 10-20 Myr.
Monte Carlo simulations of AGN-disk black hole mergers identify dense, moderately short-lived disks, a steep initial mass function, and mostly prograde orbits as the parameter combination that reproduces the observed (q, χ_eff) anti-correlation.
Next-generation IFU instruments could detect core scouring and tangential anisotropy from MBH binaries up to z~0.14 for ~150 pc cores and higher redshifts for larger cores, expanding searchable volume by 30-40 times including lower-mass systems.
Tidal stripping fails to explain missing bright red giants near Sgr A* as loss-cone diffusion scales too weakly with stellar radius compared to the rapid drop in red-giant lifetimes.

Accretion of Primordial Black Holes in Stellar Interiors
Self-consistent spherical accretion simulations show cooling-enhanced growth of PBHs with radiative efficiency ~10^{-2} in the bremsstrahlung regime, yielding a critical seed mass of ~10^{-16} M_sun to consume a solar-mass star in a Hubble time.

The $M$-$\sigma$ Relation Has to Break
Capture-driven growth model predicts M ≈ 10^5 M_⊙ × (σ/50 km s^{-1})^{2.5}, requiring the M-σ relation to flatten to 2.26 < β < 2.5 below 10^5 M_⊙.

Stellar discs and intermediate-mass black holes in galactic nuclei I. Fragmenting the disc in an isotropic stellar potential
Simulations demonstrate that a retrograde IMBH with mass ratio ~0.67 to the disc mass fragments a stellar disc into inner, misaligned, and outer components within 10-20 Myr.

Unveiling the properties of galaxy cores excavated by supermassive black hole binaries with SHARP
Next-generation IFU instruments could detect core scouring and tangential anisotropy from MBH binaries up to z~0.14 for ~150 pc cores and higher redshifts for larger cores, expanding searchable volume by 30-40 times including lower-mass systems.

On the Missing Red Giants near the Galactic Center
Tidal stripping fails to explain missing bright red giants near Sgr A* as loss-cone diffusion scales too weakly with stellar radius compared to the rapid drop in red-giant lifetimes.
