Retraction and folding on the hyperbolic black hole

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of black holes in anti-de Sitter space-time.We focus our attention on the hyperbolic black holes with less acceleration horizons and their topology.By using a Lagrangian formalism, we deduce the equatorial geodesics on the line element of these objects.Furthermore, the phenomenon of deformation that can re
