Gravitational waves in the Myers-Perry geometry
We analyze equations describing gravitational waves in the Myers-Perry and Gibbons-Lu-Page-Pope geometries with arbitrary rotation parameters. Assuming that at least one rotation parameter vanishes, we demonstrate full separability of equations for ...

This thesis aims to make precise the microscopic understanding of Hawking radiation from the D1/D5 black hole. We present an explict construction of all the shortmultiplets of the ${\cal N}=(4,4)$ SCFT on the symmetric product $\tilde{T}^4/S(Q_1Q_5)$. An investigation of the symmerties of this SCFT enables us to make a one-to-one correspondence beween ...

Gauge theory, holography & black holes: Perspectives from string theory [PDF]
This thesis is based on research performed in the context of string- and M-theory. It can be divided into two main parts: the first concerns a very effective organizing principle, also known as the worldvolume theory of multiple M5 branes, for the study ...

Aspects of plane waves and Taub-NUT as exact string theory solutions [PDF]
This thesis is a study of some aspects of string theory solutions that are exact in the inverse string tension ɑ', and thus are valid beyond the low-energy limit.

Building the blocks of Schwarzschild
We demonstrate that the Schwarzschild black hole can be “resolved” into bound states of Reissner-Nordström black holes in four dimensions. These bound states closely resemble the Schwarzschild geometry from the asymptotic region up to an infinitesimal ...

Quantum Black Holes: Some static and dynamical aspects [PDF]
With the aim of understanding single-center black hole entropy in \mathcal{N}=2 compactifications in string theory, we study the lowest lying states in the dual conformal field theories.

This thesis is devoted to trying to find a microscopic quantum description of black holes. We consider black holes in string theory which is a quantum theory of gravity. We find that the ``area law'' black hole entropy for extremal and near-extremal charged black holes arises from counting microscopic configurations.

Revisiting logarithmic correction to five dimensional BPS black hole entropy
We compute logarithmic correction to the entropy of BPS black holes in asymptotically flat five dimensional space-time using finite temperature black hole geometry and find perfect agreement with the microscopic results and macroscopic computations based
