  • Quantum-Corrected Rotating Black Holes and Naked Singularities in (2 + 1) Dimensions
    PHYSICAL REVIEW D 99, 104023 (2019) Quantum-corrected rotating black holes and naked singularities in (2 + 1) dimensions † ‡ Marc Casals,1,2,* Alessandro Fabbri,3, Cristián Martínez,4, and Jorge Zanelli4,§ 1Centro Brasileiro de Pesquisas Físicas (CBPF), Rio de Janeiro, CEP 22290-180, Brazil 2School of Mathematics and Statistics, University College Dublin, Belfield, Dublin 4, Ireland 3Departamento de Física Teórica and IFIC, Universidad de Valencia-CSIC, C. Dr. Moliner 50, 46100 Burjassot, Spain 4Centro de Estudios Científicos (CECs), Arturo Prat 514, Valdivia 5110466, Chile (Received 15 February 2019; published 13 May 2019) We analytically investigate the perturbative effects of a quantum conformally coupled scalar field on rotating (2 þ 1)-dimensional black holes and naked singularities. In both cases we obtain the quantum- backreacted metric analytically. In the black hole case, we explore the quantum corrections on different regions of relevance for a rotating black hole geometry. We find that the quantum effects lead to a growth of both the event horizon and the ergosphere, as well as to a reduction of the angular velocity compared to their corresponding unperturbed values. Quantum corrections also give rise to the formation of a curvature singularity at the Cauchy horizon and show no evidence of the appearance of a superradiant instability. In the naked singularity case, quantum effects lead to the formation of a horizon that hides the conical defect, thus turning it into a black hole. The fact that these effects occur not only for static but also for spinning geometries makes a strong case for the role of quantum mechanics as a cosmic censor in Nature.

Dissertation Advisor: Daniel Louis Jafferis Ping Gao Traversable Wormholes and Regenesis Abstract In this dissertation we study a novel solution of traversable wormholes in the context of AdS/CFT. This type of traversable wormhole is the first such solution that has been shown to be embeddable in a UV complete theory of gravity. We discuss its property from points of view of both semiclassical gravity and general chaotic system. On gravity side, after turning on an interaction that couples the two boundaries of an eternal BTZ black hole, in chapter 2 we find a quantum matter stress tensor with negative average null energy, whose gravitational backreaction renders the Einstein-Rosen bridge traversable. Such a traversable wormhole has an interesting interpretation in the context of ER=EPR, which we suggest might be related to quantum teleportation.

  • Holography of the BTZ Black Hole, Inside and out Arxiv:1307.7738V2
    UMD-PP-013-008 Holography of the BTZ Black Hole, Inside and Out Anton de la Fuente and Raman Sundrum Maryland Center for Fundamental Physics Department of Physics University of Maryland College Park, 20782 MD Abstract We propose a 1 + 1 dimensional CFT dual structure for quantum gravity and matter on the extended 2 + 1 dimensional BTZ black hole, realized as a quotient of the Poincaré patch of AdS3. The quotient spacetime includes regions beyond the singularity, "whiskers", containing timelike and lightlike closed curves, which at first sight seem unphysical. The spacetime includes the usual AdS-asymptotic boundaries outside the horizons as well as boundary components inside the whiskers. We show that local boundary correlators with some endpoints in the whisker regions: (i) are a protected class of amplitudes, dominated by effective field theory even when the associated Witten diagrams appear to traverse the singularity, (ii) describe well-defined diffeomorphism-invariant quantum gravity amplitudes in BTZ, (iii) sharply probe some of the physics inside the horizon but outside the singularity, and (iv) are equivalent to correlators of specific non-local CFT operators in the standard thermofield entangled state of two CFTs. In this sense, the whisker regions can be considered as purely auxiliary spacetimes in which these useful non-local CFT correlators can be rendered as local boundary correlators, and their diagnostic value more readily understood. Our results follow by first performing a novel reanalysis of the Rindler view of standard AdS/CFT duality on the Poincaré patch of AdS, followed by exploiting the simple quotient structure of BTZ which turns the Rindler horizon into the BTZ black hole horizon.

We find charged rotating black string solutions in a spacetime asymptotically anti-de Sitter in the radial direction. The mass (M), angular momentum (J) and charge (Q) line densities are defined using the Hamiltonian formalism of Brown and York. It is shown through dimensional reduction that M, J and Q are respec- tively the mass, angular momentum and charge of a related three dimensional black hole. The black string solutions are classified according to the charge and angular momentum parameters. The causal structure of each case is studied in detail for different ranges of the parameters and the Penrose dia- grams are shown. There are many similarities between the charged rotating black string and the Kerr-Newman spacetime. The solution has Cauchy and event horizons, ergosphere, timelike singularities, closed timelike curves, and extremal cases.

  • From Black Holes to Baby Universes in CGHS Gravity Arxiv:2103.13422V2
    From black holes to baby universes in CGHS gravity Victor Godeta and Charles Marteaub a International Centre for Theoretical Sciences (ICTS-TIFR), Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Shivakote, Hesaraghatta, Bangalore 560089, India e-mail: [email protected] b Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC V6T 0C2, Canada e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. We study CGHS\ gravity, a variant of the matterless Callan-Giddings- Harvey-Strominger model. We show that it describes a universal sector of the near hori- zon perturbations of non-extremal black holes in higher dimensions. In many respects this theory can be viewed as a flat space analog of Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity. The result for the Euclidean path integral implies that CGHS\ is dual to a Gaussian ensemble that we describe in detail. The simplicity of this theory allows us to compute exact quantities such as the quenched free energy and provides a useful playground to study baby universes, averages and factorization. In particular we derive a “wormhole = diagonal” identity. We also give evidence for the existence of a non-perturbative completion in terms of a matrix arXiv:2103.13422v2 [hep-th] 28 Jun 2021 model.

  • Spacetime Geometry of a Wormhole Modified BTZ Black Hole
    Spacetime geometry of a wormhole modified BTZ black hole David Sundelin Supervisor Bo Sundborg Stockholm University October 26, 2018 2 Spacetime geometry of a wormhole modified BTZ black hole David Sundelin Abstract The unitarity problem for the BTZ black hole can possibly be solved by a coordinate transformation in which the event horizon is extended to a wormhole. In a model proposed by S.N. Solodukhin, this is done by the addition of a wormhole parameter λ to the BTZ black hole line element. This thesis studies the changes in the spacetime geometry that comes with the addition of such a parameter. The focus of study are geodesic behaviour and possible bound states of waves. Investigating a possible source of the wormhole, the stress-energy tensor ansatz for a perfect fluid is also tested. The thesis concludes that there are notable changes to the spacetime depending on the presence of either a black hole or a wormhole. These changes includes orbital trajectories of geodesics and localized bound states of waves. The changes are most notable for λ > 1 but also detectable for small parameter corrections. The wormhole spacetime can however not be generated by a simple addition of matter in a perfect fluid form. 3 4 Contents 1 Introduction 7 2 Background 9 2.1 General relativity . 9 2.2 Anti-de Sitter spacetime . 10 2.3 Unitarity and the AdS/CFT correspondence . 11 2.4 Wormhole modification of a BTZ black hole . 12 3 Spacetime geometry of a wormhole modified BTZ black hole 14 3.1 Implications for the stress energy tensor .

We also discuss the implications for the energy and holographic entropy in the dual CFT description. 1 Contents 1 Introduction 2 2 Modified bulk two-point function 5 3 1-loop stress tensor 7 4 Holographic Energy and Entropy 10 5 Discussion 12 A dUTUU 15 ´ 1 Introduction Traversable wormholes have long been a source of fascination as a method of long distance transportation [36]. However, such configurations require matter that violates the null energy condition, which is believed to apply in physically reasonable classical theories. In quantum field theory, the null energy condition is false, but in many situations there are other no-go theorems that rule out traversable wormholes. In this work we find that adding certain interactions that couple the two boundaries of eternal AdS- Schwarzschild results in a quantum matter stress tensor with negative average null energy, rendering the wormhole traversable after gravitational backreaction.

    University of Amsterdam MSc Physics Theoretical Physics Master Thesis The BTZ Black Hole In Metric and Chern-Simons Formulation by Eline van der Mast 0588105 July 2014 54 ECTS 02/2013 - 07/2014 Supervisor: Examiner: A. Castro, Dr. J. de Boer, Prof. Institute for Theoretical Physics Amsterdam ABSTRACT In this thesis, we review the BTZ black hole within the metric formulation of gen- eral relativity and Chern-Simons theory. We introduce the necessary concepts of general relativity and discuss three-dimensional gravity, specifically Anti-de Sitter vacuum space. Then, we review the identification process to get to the BTZ black hole solution, as well as an explicit quotienting formulation. The thermodynamic and geometric properties of the black hole are then discussed. The Brown-York stress tensor procedure is explained to give these properties physical meaning, with a correction by Balasubramanian and Kraus. In the second part of this thesis we introduce Chern-Simons theory and show its equivalence to three-dimensional gravity. The BTZ black hole is then shown to be defined through holonomies and thermodynamics. We find that the identifications in the metric formulation are equivalent to the holonomies in the Chern-Simons formulation; and the thermo- dynamics are the same. CONTENTS 1.

  • First Law of Entanglement Entropy in Ads Black Hole Backgrounds
    PHYSICAL REVIEW D 104, 026004 (2021) First law of entanglement entropy in AdS black hole backgrounds † Akihiro Ishibashi1,* and Kengo Maeda2, 1Department of Physics and Research Institute for Science and Technology, Kindai University, Higashi-Osaka 577-8502, Japan 2Faculty of Engineering, Shibaura Institute of Technology, Saitama 330-8570, Japan (Received 12 April 2021; accepted 10 June 2021; published 8 July 2021) The first law for entanglement entropy in CFT in an odd-dimensional asymptotically AdS black hole is studied by using the AdS=CFT duality. The entropy of CFT considered here is due to the entanglement between two subsystems separated by the horizon of the AdS black hole, which itself is realized as the conformal boundary of a black droplet in even-dimensional global AdS bulk spacetime. In (2 þ 1)- dimensional CFT, the first law is shown to be always satisfied by analyzing a class of metric perturbations of the exact solution of a 4-dimensional black droplet. In (4 þ 1)-dimensions, the first law for CFT is shown to hold under the Neumann boundary condition at a certain bulk hypersurface anchored to the conformal boundary of the boundary AdS black hole. From the boundary view point, this Neumann condition yields there being no energy flux across the boundary of the boundary AdS black hole. Furthermore, the asymptotic geometry of a 6-dimensional small AdS black droplet is constructed as the gravity dual of our (4 þ 1)-dimensional CFT, which exhibits a negative energy near the spatial infinity, as expected from vacuum polarization.
