Black hole induced false vacuum decay: The role of greybody factors
Andrey Shkerin, Sergey Sibiryakov
We study false vacuum decay catalyzed by black holes. We consider a toy two-dimensional model of a scalar field with an unstable potential in the background of a dilaton black hole…
Beta functions of (3+1)-dimensional projectable Horava gravity
Andrei O. Barvinsky, Alexander V. Kurov, Sergey M. Sibiryakov
We derive the full set of beta functions for the marginal essential couplings of projectable Horava gravity in (3 + 1)-dimensional spacetime. To this end we compute the divergent p…
Black hole induced false vacuum decay from first principles
Andrey Shkerin, Sergey Sibiryakov
We provide a method to calculate the rate of false vacuum decay induced by a black hole. The method uses complex tunneling solutions and consistently takes into account the structu…
