Currents and radiation from the large D black hole membrane

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2017
It has recently been demonstrated that black hole dynamics in a large number of dimensions D reduces to the dynamics of a codimension one membrane propagating in flat space.

Blow-up for solutions of hyperbolic PDE and spacetime singularities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
An important question in mathematical relativity theory is that of the nature of spacetime singularities. The equations of general relativity, the Einstein equations, are essentially hyperbolic in nature and the study of spacetime singularities is ...

Resolving spacetime singularities in flux compactifications & KKLT [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
Abstract In flux compactifications of type IIB string theory with D3 and seven-branes, the negative induced D3 charge localized on seven-branes leads to an apparently pathological profile of the metric sufficiently close to the source. With the volume modulus stabilized in a KKLT de Sitter vacuum this pathological region takes over

Probing phase structure of black holes with Lyapunov exponents

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We conjecture that there exists a relationship between Lyapunov exponents and black hole phase transitions. To support our conjecture, Lyapunov exponents of the motion of particles and ring strings are calculated for Reissner-Nordström-AdS black holes ...

Quantum vacuum effects on the formation of black holes

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We study the backreaction of quantum fields induced through the vacuum polarization and the conformal anomaly on the collapse of a thin shell of dust. It is shown that the final fate of the collapse process depends on the physical properties of the shell,

Dual geometries and spacetime singularities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The notion of geometrical duality is discussed in the context of both Brans-Dicke theory and general relativity. It is shown that, in some particular solutions, the spacetime singularities that arise in usual Riemannian general relativity may be avoided ...

Visible borders of spacetime generated by high-energy collisions

open access: yes, 2010
Several years ago, two of the present authors proposed the concept of the border of spacetime as a generalization of spacetime singularities. Visible borders of spacetime, which replace naked singularities of classical theory, are not only necessary for ...

Gravitational thermodynamics without the conformal factor problem: partition functions and Euclidean saddles from Lorentzian path integrals

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
Thermal partition functions for gravitational systems have traditionally been studied using Euclidean path integrals. But in Euclidean signature the gravitational action suffers from the conformal factor problem, which renders the action unbounded below.

Black hole thermodynamics with conical defects

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2017
Recently we have shown [1] how to formulate a thermodynamic first law for a single (charged) accelerated black hole in AdS space by fixing the conical deficit angles present in the spacetime.

Inner horizon instability and the unstable cores of regular black holes

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
Regular black holes with nonsingular cores have been considered in several approaches to quantum gravity, and as agnostic frameworks to address the singularity problem and Hawking’s information paradox.
