| Summary: | In the de Sitter-invariant approach to gravitation, all solutions to the gravitational field equations are spacetimes that reduce locally to de Sitter. Consequently, besides including a Schwarzschild event horizon, the de Sitter-invariant black hole also has a de Sitter cosmic horizon. Accordingly, it can lodge matter and dark energies. Owing to this additional structure concerning Poincaré-invariant general relativity, such a black hole can establish a link between the black hole dynamics and the universe’s evolution. Possible implications for cosmology are discussed, and a comparison with recent observations indicating the existence of a cosmological coupling of black holes is presented.
