C-Metrics In Gauged Stu Supergravity And Beyond, H. Lu, Justin F. Vázquez-Poritz Dec 2014

C-Metrics In Gauged Stu Supergravity And Beyond, H. Lu, Justin F. Vázquez-Poritz

Publications and Research

We construct charged generalizations of the dilaton C-metric in various fourdimensional theories, including STU gauged supergravity as well as a one-parameter family of Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theories whose scalar potential can be expressed in terms of a superpotential. In addition, we present time-dependent generalizations of the dilaton C-metric and dilaton Ernst solutions, for which the time evolution is driven by the dilaton. These C-metric solutions provide holographic descriptions of a strongly-coupled three-dimensional field theory on the background of a black hole, a gravitational soliton, and a black hole undergoing time evolution.


Near Horizon Geometry Of Strings Ending On Intersecting D8/D4-Branes, J. Estes, D. Krym, B. Van Pol Oct 2014

Near Horizon Geometry Of Strings Ending On Intersecting D8/D4-Branes, J. Estes, D. Krym, B. Van Pol

Publications and Research

We consider solutions of massive IIA supergravity corresponding to the half- BPS intersection of D8/D4-branes with fundamental strings. The 1 + 1-dimensional intersection preserves the symmetry D(2, 1; ; 1) × SO(4). We give a reduction and partial integration of the BPS equations for this symmetry group. We then specialize to the cases of enhanced supersymmetry corresponding to = −1/2,−2 or = 1. In the first case, we show that the only solution with enhanced symmetry is given by the AdS6 geometry describing the near horizon geometry of D8/D4-branes in the presence of an O8-plane. In the second case, we …


Finite N And The Failure Of Bulk Locality: Black Holes In Ads/Cft, Daniel N. Kabat, Gilad Lifschytz Sep 2014

Finite N And The Failure Of Bulk Locality: Black Holes In Ads/Cft, Daniel N. Kabat, Gilad Lifschytz

Publications and Research

We consider bulk quantum fields in AdS/CFT in the background of an eter- nal black hole. We show that for black holes with finite entropy, correlation functions of semiclassical bulk operators close to the horizon deviate from their semiclassical value and are ill-defined inside the horizon. This is due to the large-time behavior of correlators in a unitary CFT, and means the region near and inside the horizon receives corrections. We give a prescription for modifying the definition of a bulk field in a black hole background, such that one can still define operators that mimic the inside of the …
