Quantum corrections to the near-extremal thermodynamics of (warped) BTZ black holes
Emilie Despontin, Stéphane Detournay, Robinson Mancilla +1
We study one-loop effects in the near-extremal thermodynamics of BTZ and warped BTZ black holes, with particular emphasis on the fate of eigenmodes that become zero modes in the ex…
Infinite-dimensional symmetries in plane wave spacetimes
Emilie Despontin, Stéphane Detournay, Dima Fontaine
We study the asymptotic symmetries of the Nappi-Witten spacetime in four dimensions, a plane wave arising as the Penrose limit of AdS. Imposing suitable boundary cond…
Anisotropic conformal Carroll field theories and their gravity duals
Emilie Despontin, Stephane Detournay, Sudipta Dutta +1
We investigate anisotropic conformal Carroll field theories and their holographic duals. On the field theory side, we focus on the case with scaling exponent in two and three…
Were you born in an aborted primordial black hole?
Emilie Despontin, Sebastien Clesse, Albert Escrivà +1
We propose a mechanism of electroweak baryogenesis based on the Standard Model and explaining the coincidence between the baryon and Dark Matter (DM) densities. Large curvature flu…
