Can I read Curved spacetimes with local $\kappa$-Poincar\'e dispersion relation on EtoBox?

Curved spacetimes with local $\kappa$-Poincar\'e dispersion relation by Barcaroli, Leonardo; Brunkhorst, Lukas K.; Gubitosi, Giulia; Loret, Niccoló; Pfeifer, Christian is a scholarly article available to read on EtoBox.

What is Curved spacetimes with local $\kappa$-Poincar\'e dispersion relation about?

We use our previously developed identification of dispersion relations with Hamilton functions on phase space to locally implement the $\kappa$-Poincar\'e dispersion relation in the momentum spaces at each point of a generic curved spacetime. We use this general construction to build the most general Hamiltonian compatible with spherical symmetry and the Plank-scale-deformed one such that in the local frame it reproduces the $\kappa$-Poincar\'e dispersion relation. Specializing to Planck-scale-deformed Schwarzschild geometry, we find that the photon sphere around a black hole becomes a thick shell since photons of different energy will orbit the black hole on circular orbits at different altitudes. We also compute the redshift of a photon between different observers at rest, finding that there is a Planck-scale correction to the usual redshift only if the observers detecting the photon have different masses.
