Replica wormhole as a vacuum-to-vacuum transition

Yang An, Peng Cheng

The recent developments related to the black hole information paradox have brought us a confusing object: the replica wormhole. We are trying to better understand the object from t…

Soft black hole information paradox: Page curve from Maxwell soft hair of a black hole

Peng Cheng, Yang An

Treating Maxwell soft hair as a transition function that relates U(1) gauge fields living in the asymptotic region and near-horizon region, the U(1) gauge parameter naturally b…

General-relativistic spin system

Danilo Artigas, Jakub Bilski, Sean Crowe +2

The models of spin systems defined on Euclidean space provide powerful machinery for studying a broad range of condensed matter phenomena. While the non-relativistic effective desc…

Photon orbits and phase transitions in Born-Infeld-dilaton black holes

Haitang Li, Yong Chen, Shao-Jun Zhang

Relations between photon orbits and thermodynamical phase transitions are explored in Born-Infeld-dilaton-AdS black hole. The coupling between the electromagnetic field and the dia…

Chaos in Born-Infeld-AdS black hole within extended phase space

Yong Chen, Haitang Li, Shao-Jun Zhang

Born-Infeld-AdS black holes in extended phase space may possess phase structures resembling that of van der Waals fluid in four-dimensional spacetime. We study dynamics of its stat…

Quasi-topological Electromagnetism: Dark Energy, Dyonic Black Holes, Stable Photon Spheres and Hidden Electromagnetic Duality

Hai-Shan Liu, Zhan-Feng Mai, Yue-Zhou Li +1

We introduce the quasi-topological electromagnetism which is defined to be the squared norm of the topological 4-form . A salient property is that its energy-momentum te…

Action Growth of Dyonic Black Holes and Electromagnetic Duality

Hai-Shan Liu, H. Lu

Electromagnetic duality of Maxwell theory is a symmetry of equations but not of the action. The usual application of the `complexity=action' conjecture would thus loose this dualit…

Subregion complexity in holographic thermalization with dS boundary

Shao-Jun Zhang

We study the time evolution of holographic subregion complexity (HSC) in Vaidya spacetime with dS boundary. The subregion on the boundary is chosen to be a sphere within the cosmol…

Microscopic explanation for black hole phase transitions via Ruppeiner geometry: two competing factors-the temperature and repulsive interaction among BH molecules

Yong Chen, Haitang Li, Shao-Jun Zhang

Charged dilatonic black hole (BH) has rather rich phase diagrams which may contain zeroth-order, first-order as well as reentrant phase transitions (RPTs) depending on the value of…

"Shadowy" modes in Higher-Order Scalar-Tensor theories

Antonio De Felice, David Langlois, Shinji Mukohyama +2

We consider Higher-Order Scalar-Tensor theories which appear degenerate when restricted to the unitary gauge but are not degenerate in an arbitrary gauge. We dub them U-degenerate…
