Extended symmetry of the Maxwell theory with a gauge coupling constant as a conserved charge

Sojeong Cheong, Myungseok Eune, Wontae Kim +1

It has been proposed that any coupling constant in a covariant action can be treated as a conserved charge by promoting the coupling constant to auxiliary fields, typically realize…

Gravitational constant as a conserved charge in black hole thermodynamics

Wontae Kim, Mungon Nam

Recent work has shown that couplings multiplying individual terms in a Lagrangian can be promoted to conserved charges by introducing scalar-gauge pairs. The gravitational constant…

The quasilocal energy and thermodynamic first law in accelerating AdS black holes

Wontae Kim, Mungon Nam, Sang-Heon Yi

We scrutinize the conserved energy of an accelerating AdS black hole by employing the off-shell quasilocal formalism, which amalgamates the ADT formalism with the covariant phase s…

Investigation of black hole complementarity in AdS black holes

Wontae Kim, Mungon Nam

Black hole complementarity plays a pivotal role in resolving the information loss paradox by treating Hawking radiation as carriers of information, apart from the complicated mecha…

Temperatures of AdS black holes and holography revisited

Wontae Kim, Mungon Nam

In a dilaton gravity model, we revisit the calculation of the temperature of an evaporating black hole that is initially formed by a shock wave, taking into account the quantum bac…

Batalin-Tyutin quantization of dynamical boundary of AdS

Wontae Kim, Mungon Nam

In a two-dimensional AdS space, a dynamical boundary of AdS space was described by a one-dimensional quantum-mechanical Hamiltonian with a coupling between the bulk and boundary sy…

Entanglement entropy of asymptotically flat non-extremal and extremal black holes with an island

Wontae Kim, Mungon Nam

The island rule for the entanglement entropy is applied to an eternal Reissner-Nordström black hole. The key ingredient is that the black hole is assumed to be in thermal equilibri…
