Smoluchowski Coagulation Equation and the Evolution of Primordial Black Hole Clusters

Borui Zhang, Wei-Xiang Feng, Haipeng An

In arXiv:2507.07171, we demonstrate that the high-redshift supermassive black holes in the so-called "little red dots" discovered by James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) can be explai…

Black Hole Cold Brew: Fermi Degeneracy Pressure

Wei-Xiang Feng, Hai-Bo Yu, Yi-Ming Zhong

We investigate the dynamical instability of a self-gravitating thermal system in the quantum regime, where Fermi degeneracy pressure becomes significant. Using a truncated Fermi-Di…

Formation of the Little Red Dots from the Core-collapse of Self-interacting Dark Matter Halos

Fangzhou Jiang, Zixiang Jia, Haonan Zheng +5

We present a statistical study of black hole (BH) formation and growth seeded by gravothermal core collapse of self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) halos at high redshift, using a c…

Little Red Dots from Small-Scale Primordial Black Hole Clustering

Borui Zhang, Wei-Xiang Feng, Haipeng An

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) observations have identified a class of compact galaxies at high redshifts (), dubbed "little red dots" (LRDs). The…

Gravitational Waves from Primordial Black Hole Dark Matter Spikes

Wei-Xiang Feng, Simeon Bird, Hai-Bo Yu

The origin of the binary black hole mergers observed by LIGO--Virgo--KAGRA remains an open question. We calculate the merger rate from primordial black holes (PBHs) within the dens…

Seeding Supermassive Black Holes with Self-Interacting Dark Matter: A Unified Scenario with Baryons

Wei-Xiang Feng, Hai-Bo Yu, Yi-Ming Zhong

Observations show that supermassive black holes (SMBHs) with a mass of exist when the Universe is just of its current age. We propose a scenario where a se…
