Light Deflection and Greybody Bound Around a BTZ-ModMax Black Hole in Plasma Medium
We study the deflection of light in a homogeneous plasma medium around a BTZ-ModMax black hole, focusing on the effects of the ModMax nonlinear electrodynamics parameter and the cosmological constant. Using the Gauss-Bonnet theorem applied to the corresponding optical geometry in plasma, we derive a modified expression for the deflection angle and examine how plasma dispersion alters the gravitational lensing behavior. The influence of the ModMax parameter in the presence of homogeneous plasma is compared with its vacuum counterpart, as well as with the charged and static BTZ black hole cases, revealing distinct signatures arising from nonlinear electrodynamics. This work highlights the combined impact of homogeneous plasma, spacetime curvature, and nonlinear field dynamics on light deflection in lower-dimensional black hole geometries. We further study the greybody factor in absence of plasma medium and analyze how the ModMax parameter modifies the energy emission spectrum of the black hole. Our results demonstrate that both plasma effects and nonlinear electrodynamics significantly influence the transmission probabilities and emission rates, providing deeper insight into wave propagation and the underlying physics of lower-dimensional black hole geometries.
