Here we investigate the possibility that some globular clusters (GCs) harborintermediate mass black holes (BH) in their centers and are also embedded in alow-mass dark matter (DM) halo.  Up to date, there is no evidence on whether or not GCs have DM in theirconstitution. For standard cold DM cosmology, it is expected that GCs form withtheir own DM halos. Other studies investigate the possibility that GCs wereinitially embedded in massive DM halos that evolved during the clusterlifetime.  An additional intriguing question is related to the existence of intermediatemass black holes (IMBH) in the of GCs. The determination of whether GCs holdIMBHs would be able to answer important questions about GCs formation and thecircumstances that gave rise to the IMBHs. DM & IMBH in the context of GCs areinteresting subjects to be studied and we will perform such studies here,assuming the coexistence of both of them in some GCs.  Having such information, we perform the study possible DM signals from GCs.One important subject to be studied is the DM density profile. In the innerregions of GCs, the DM density profile is still an open question of fundamentalimportance to DM studies, specially for the study of radio and $\gamma$-rayemission from DM annihilation in such regions (abridged).
