Black Hole Entropy and Soft Hair

Sasha Haco, Stephen W. Hawking, Malcolm J. Perry +1

A set of infinitesimal diffeomorphisms are presented which act non-trivially on the horizon of a generic Kerr black hole with spin…

Should China build the Great Collider?

Stephen Hawking, Gordon Kane

We address the question of the title from the scientific, economic, and cultural points of view, and argue strongly for a positive answer. We respond to various issues that have be…

A Smooth Exit from Eternal Inflation?

S. W. Hawking, Thomas Hertog

The usual theory of inflation breaks down in eternal inflation. We derive a dual description of eternal inflation in terms of a deformed Euclidean CFT located at the threshold of e…

The Conformal BMS Group

Sasha J. Haco, Stephen W. Hawking, Malcolm J. Perry +1

We describe the conformal symmetries of asymptotically flat spacetime. These represent an extension of the BMS group that we call the conformal BMS group. Its general features are…

Superrotation Charge and Supertranslation Hair on Black Holes

Stephen W. Hawking, Malcolm J. Perry, Andrew Strominger

It is shown that black hole spacetimes in classical Einstein gravity are characterized by, in addition to their ADM mass , momentum , angular momentum and boost…

Soft Hair on Black Holes

Stephen W. Hawking, Malcolm J. Perry, Andrew Strominger

It has recently been shown that BMS supertranslation symmetries imply an infinite number of conservation laws for all gravitational theories in asymptotically Minkowskian spacetime…
