Propagating spinors on a tetrahedral spacetime lattice
Brendan Z. Foster, Ted Jacobson
We derive a discrete path integral for massless fermions on a hypercubic spacetime lattice with null faces. The amplitude for a path with N steps and B bends is +/- (1/2)^N (i/sqrt…
Introduction to Quantum Fields in Curved Spacetime and the Hawking Effect
Ted Jacobson
These notes introduce the subject of quantum field theory in curved spacetime and some of its applications and the questions they raise. Topics include particle creation in time-de…
Comments on ``Improved limit on quantum-spacetime modifications of Lorentz symmetry from observations of gamma-ray blazars"
T. Jacobson, S. Liberati, D. Mattingly
We address several criticisms by Amelino-Camelia of our recent analyses of two observational constraints on Lorentz violation at order E/M_{Planck}. In particular, we emphasize the…
Black hole and baby universe in a thin film of 3He-A
Ted Jacobson, Tatsuhiko Koike
Condensed matter black hole analogues may provide guidance in grappling with difficult questions about the role of short distance physics in the Hawking effect. These questions bea…
Black Hole Thermodynamics Today
Ted Jacobson
A brief survey of the major themes and developments of black hole thermodynamics in the 1990's is given, followed by summaries of the talks on this subject at MG8 together with a b…
Introduction to Black Hole Microscopy
Theodore A. Jacobson
The aim of these notes is both to review the standard understanding of the Hawking effect, and to discuss the modifications to this understanding that might be required by new phys…
