Who's afraid of a negative lapse?

Robert Beig, Piotr T. Chruściel, Wan Cong

We rederive the Arnowitt-Deser-Misner equations in a framework in which the zeros of the lapse are innocuous, whether with or without changes of sign. We further develop and analys…

Holographic dictionary for Lifshitz and hyperscaling violating black holes

Wan Cong, David Kubizňák, Robert B. Mann +1

We develop a novel holographic dictionary for the thermodynamics of black holes with Lifshitz and hyperscaling violating asymptotics, generalizing the dictionary for Anti-de Sitter…

Holographic CFT Phase Transitions and Criticality for Rotating AdS Black Holes

Moaathe Belhaj Ahmed, Wan Cong, David Kubiznak +2

Employing the novel exact dictionary between the laws of extended black hole thermodynamics and the laws of the dual CFT, we study the extended thermodynamics for CFT states that a…

Holographic dual of extended black hole thermodynamics

Moaathe Belhaj Ahmed, Wan Cong, David Kubizňák +2

By respecting the conformal symmetry of the dual CFT, and treating the conformal factor of the AdS boundary as a thermodynamic parameter, we formulate the holographic first law tha…

Gluing variations

Piotr T. Chruściel, Wan Cong

We establish several results on gluing/embedding/extending geometric structures in vacuum spacetimes with a cosmological constant in any spacetime dimensions , with emphasi…

Characteristic Gluing with 1. Linearised Einstein equations on four-dimensional spacetimes

Piotr T. Chruściel, Wan Cong

We establish a gluing theorem for linearised vacuum gravitational fields in Bondi gauge on a class of characteristic surfaces in static vacuum four-dimensional backgrounds with cos…
