Self-similar critical geometries at horizon intersections and mergers
Roberto Emparan, Nidal Haddad
We study topology-changing transitions in the space of higher-dimensional black hole solutions. Kol has proposed that these are conifold-type transitions controlled by self-similar…

Blackfolds in Supergravity and String Theory
Roberto Emparan, Troels Harmark, Vasilis Niarchos +1
We develop the effective worldvolume theory for the dynamics of black branes with charges of the kind that arise in many supergravities and low-energy limits of string theory. Usin…
