Dark Matter's influence on Evolution of MBHB in Dwarf Galaxies: A Case Study of Leo I dSph
N-body simulations of a massive binary black hole in Leo I find orbital hardening to 1 pc followed by stalling due to the final parsec problem, with merger unlikely in a Hubble time owing to low stellar and dark matter densities.
