We present the exact eigensolutions of the governing Klein–Gordon equation in the black hole background. By imposing boundary conditions on the quasibound states, we are able to find the exact complex quasibound state frequencies of the corresponding radial wave functions in terms of the confluent Heun polynomial. Considering the light scalar field limit of the obtained solution, we investigate the scalar–black hole resonance configuration known as the scalar cloud. In addition, we obtain an analytical relationship between the light scalar mass and black hole spin for the scalar cloud. We explore a boson distribution function by linearly expanding the radial wave function near the black hole’s event horizon. Moreover, by applying the Damour–Ruffini method, we are able to calculate the Hawking radiation flux. In the final section, we consider a propagating wave in a slowly rotating Kerr-EMDA black hole for bosons with a much larger Compton wavelength than the size of the rotating black hole. This condition allows us to use asymptotic matching to calculate the amplification factor for scalar fields in the Kerr-EMDA black hole.

In the setup, all the SM and DM fields reside on the hyper-surface while graviton lives in the bulk. We consider two well-known brane-world cosmologies, namely, the Randall–Sundrum (RS) and the Gauss–Bonnet (GB) brane-world cosmologies, in which the standard Big Bang cosmology is reproduced at low temperatures below the so-called “transition temperature” while at high temperatures the expansion law of the universe is significantly modified. Such a non-standard expansion law directly impacts the prediction for the relic density of the Higgs-portal DM. We investigate the brane-world cosmological effects and identify the allowed model parameter region by combining the constraints from the observed DM relic density, and the direct and indirect DM detection experiments. It is well-known that only DM masses in the vicinity of half the Higgs boson mass are allowed in the Higgs-portal scalar DM model. We find that the allowed parameter region becomes more severely constrained and even disappears in the RS cosmology, while the GB cosmological effect significantly enlarges the allowed region.
