Hidden Symmetry of Kerr-deSitter from Manifest Symmetry of Painlevé VI

Stefan Hollands, Akihiro Ishibashi, Jochen Zahn

We show that the recently discovered ``mass symmetries" of the radial Teukolsky equation for Kerr-deSitter black holes can be understood from a corresponding symmetry of the Painle…

The Entropy of Dynamical Black Holes

Stefan Hollands, Robert M. Wald, Victor G. Zhang

We propose a new formula for the entropy of a dynamical black holevalid to leading order for perturbations off of a stationary black hole backgroundin an arbitrary classical…

The Operator Product Expansion in Quantum Field Theory

Stefan Hollands, Robert M. Wald

Operator product expansions (OPEs) in quantum field theory (QFT) provide an asymptotic relation between products of local fields defined at points and local field…

A stationary black hole must be axisymmetric in effective field theory

Stefan Hollands, Akihiro Ishibashi, Harvey S. Reall

The black hole rigidity theorem asserts that a rotating stationary black hole must be axisymmetric. This theorem holds for General Relativity with suitable matter fields, in four o…

Conserved currents for Kerr and orthogonality of quasinormal modes

Stephen R. Green, Stefan Hollands, Laura Sberna +2

We introduce a bilinear form for Weyl scalar perturbations of Kerr. The form is symmetric and conserved, and we show that, when combined with a suitable renormalization prescriptio…
