The co evolution of galaxies and the presence of black holes is important in the understanding of the larger scale structure of the Universe. Equally well, the connection between dark matter (CDM) and galactic formation is not fully explained. Using conventional gravity there also appears to be infinite time dilation at the event horizon, which means that theoretically matter cannot enter the black hole, particularly the central supermassive black hole, in the lifetime of galaxies. Here we deconstruct the equations used in the formulation of classical GTR. This gives a dynamic form of Newtonian advanced gravity termed DNAg, which resolves a number of problems in gravity. Firstly, it does not offer infinite time dilation at the event horizon. By the same token it is possible to explain the presence of dark matter at the centre of the galaxy in addition to that in the galactic halo. Equally, it is able to explain the overall presence of cosmological dark matter in the formation of galaxies. Moreover, it predicts the results of black hole merges and gravitational wave studies. Importantly, it offers further future predictions for black hole physics, which will be readily testable using the newly commissioned event horizon telescope.
