Anti-de Sitter Quotients: When Are They Black Holes?
Stefan Aminneborg, Ingemar Bengtsson
We point out that the BTZ black holes, and their relatives, can be defined in a cleaner way than they originally were. The covering space can be taken to be anti-de Sitter space, p…
Black Holes and Wormholes in 2+1 Dimensions
Dieter Brill
Vacuum Einstein theory in three spacetime dimensions is locally trivial, but admits many solutions that are globally different, particularly if there is a negative cosmological con…
A Spinning Anti-de Sitter Wormhole
Stefan Aminneborg, Ingemar Bengtsson, Soren Holst
We construct a 2+1 dimensional spacetime of constant curvature whose spatial topology is that of a torus with one asymptotic region attached. It is also a black hole whose event ho…
Black Holes and Wormholes in 2+1 Dimensions
Stefan Aminneborg, Ingemar Bengtsson, Dieter Brill +2
A large variety of spacetimes---including the BTZ black holes---can be obtained by identifying points in 2+1 dimensional anti-de Sitter space by means of a discrete group of isomet…
Making Anti-de Sitter Black Holes
Stefan Aminneborg, Ingemar Bengtsson, Soren Holst +1
It is known from the work of Banados et al. that a space-time with event horizons (much like the Schwarzschild black hole) can be obtained from 2+1 dimensional anti-de Sitter space…
