Connecting quasinormal modes and heat kernels in 1-loop determinants
Cynthia Keeler, Victoria L. Martin, Andrew Svesko
We connect two different approaches for calculating functional determinants on quotients of hyperbolic spacetime: the heat kernel method and the quasinormal mode method. For the ex…

Equilibrium to Einstein: Entanglement, Thermodynamics, and Gravity
Andrew Svesko
Here we develop the connection between thermodynamics, entanglement, and gravity. By attributing thermodynamics to timeslices of a causal diamond, we show that the Clausius relatio…

A Local First Law of Gravity
Maulik Parikh, Sudipta Sarkar, Andrew Svesko
We find a (quasi-)local first law of thermodynamics, , connecting gravitational entropy, , with matter energy and work. For Einstein gravity is the Bekenstein…
