Black hole entanglement entropy regularized in a freely falling frame
Ted Jacobson, Renaud Parentani
We compute the black hole horizon entanglement entropy S_E for a massless scalar field, first with a hard cutoff and then with high frequency dispersion, both imposed in a frame th…
Lorentz violation and perpetual motion
Christopher Eling, Brendan Z. Foster, Ted Jacobson +1
We show that any Lorentz violating theory with two or more propagation speeds is in conflict with the generalized second law of black hole thermodynamics. We do this by identifying…
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 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…
