摘要：
光球在黑洞和其他天体物理对象的研究中引起了极大的关注。对于不同的时空类别（或引力源），光球的存在及其分布受到时空的几何和拓扑性质以及相应引力场特征的显著影响。在本工作中，我们对不同类别的时空（包括黑洞时空、超致密物体的时空、规则时空和裸奇点时空）的光球进行了几何分析。获得了一些通用性质和结论。我们主要关注不同类别的时空中的光球存在性，总光球数量n = n_stable + n_unstable，以及稳定光球与不稳定光球的减法w = n_stable - n_unstable。这些结论仅基于时空光学几何的几何性质得出，与具体的时空度规形式无关。此外，我们的结果成功地恢复了近年来提出的关于光球的一些重要定理。
英文摘要：
Photon spheres have attracted considerable interest in the studies of black holes and other astrophysical objects. For different categories of spacetimes (or gravitational sources), the existence of photon spheres and their distributions are dramatically influenced by the geometric and topological properties of spacetimes and characteristics of the corresponding gravitational fields. In this work, we carry out a geometric analysis on photon spheres for different categories of spacetime (including black hole spacetime, ultra-compact object's spacetime, regular spacetime, and naked singularity spacetime). Some universal properties and conclusions are obtained for these spacetimes. We mostly focus on the existence of photon spheres, the total number of photon spheres $n = n_{\text{stable}} + n_{\text{unstable}}$, the subtraction of stable photon sphere and unstable photon sphere $w = n_{\text{stable}} - n_{\text{unstable}}$ in different categories of spacetimes. These conclusions are derived solely from geometric properties of optical geometry of spacetimes, irrelevant to the specific spacetime metric forms. Besides, our results successfully recover some important theorems on photon spheres proposed in recent years.
