Geometry of black holes and braneworlds in higher dimensions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This tliesis first discusses braneworld models, we explain how the bulk geometry in codimension 2 scenarios restricts braneworld fields in a way inconsistent with observation.

Higher-dimensional black holes: Braneworld stars and Hawking radiation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
In this thesis two aspects of braneworld models are studied. A new attempt at finding the metric of a braneworld black hole within the second Randall-Sundrum model is explored. Branes containing distributions of perfect fluid are embedded in a variety of

On the Microscopic Perspective of Black Branes Thermodynamic Geometry

open access: yesEntropy, 2010
We study thermodynamic state-space geometry of the black holes in string theory and M-theory. For a large number of microstates, we analyze the intrinsic state-space geometry for (i) extremal and non-extremal black branes in string theory, (ii) multi ...

Phase transitions of magnetic AdS4 black holes with scalar hair

open access: yes, 2013
We determine the thermodynamic properties of a class of spherically symmetric and static black holes in AdS4 with magnetic charges and scalar hair.

Black holes and black branes in Lifshitz spacetimes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We construct analytic solutions describing black holes and black branes in asymptotically Lifshitz spacetimes with arbitrary dynamical exponent z and for arbitrary number of dimensions.

Revisiting logarithmic correction to five dimensional BPS black hole entropy

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
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

Explorations of four and five dimensional black hole spacetimes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This thesis concentrates on four and five dimensional black holes and their associated geodesies. Some coordinate charts are presented, which are useful in the analysis of both static and rotating black holes, and their mathematical properties ...

Size and shape of rotating strings and the correspondence to black holes

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
In light of the correspondence between black holes and fundamental strings with non-zero spin, we compute the sizes of rotating strings for small, moderate, and large values of the angular momentum and compare them to the sizes of rotating black holes ...

String Theory and Black Holes

open access: yes, 1999
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 ...
