Complex Phase Structure of Kerr-AdS Black Holes: Critical Saddles and Fisher Zeros
Bum-Hoon Lee, Hocheol Lee, Somyadip Thakur
We study the complex saddle structure of singly rotating Kerr--AdS black holes using a two-variable reduced model in the grand canonical ensemble at fixed angular velocity, …
Gauss-Bonnet corrected string/black hole transition in large dimensions
Bum-Hoon Lee, Hocheol Lee, Somyadip Thakur
We develop a unified analytic treatment of the Horowitz--Polchinski string/black hole correspondence that systematically incorporates higher-derivative corrections to gravity. Work…
Global causality constraints in rotating scalar-tensor spacetimes
Bum-Hoon Lee, Nils A. Nilsson, Somyadip Thakur
Modified gravity is often formulated as an effective field theory (EFT), where higher-order corrections parametrize departures from General Relativity. We argue that such correctio…
