Highest-weight truncation, graded EFT structure, and renormalization of black hole Love numbers
Naman Kumar
The static tidal Love numbers of four-dimensional black holes vanish identically, unlike their nontrivial dynamical response at finite frequency. Recent work has provided three com…
Marginal IR running of Gravity as a Natural Explanation for Dark Matter
Naman Kumar
We propose that the infrared (IR) running of Newton's coupling provides a simple and universal explanation for large-distance modifications of gravity relevant to dark matter pheno…
Extended black hole thermodynamics in a DGP braneworld
Naman Kumar
We develop extended black-hole thermodynamics on a Dvali--Gabadadze--Porrati (DGP) brane by promoting the brane tension to a thermodynamic variable within the extended Iyer--Wa…
A proof of the reverse isoperimetric inequality using a geometric-analytic approach
Naman Kumar
We present a proof of the reverse isoperimetric inequality - a central conjecture in extended black hole thermodynamics - for black holes in Einstein gravity with , emplo…
Love beyond Einstein: Metric reconstruction and Love number in quadratic gravity using WEFT
Arpan Bhattacharyya, Saptaswa Ghosh, Naman Kumar +2
We study tidal Love numbers of static black holes in four-dimensional quadratic theory of gravity, extending the result of GR. We use worldline effective field theory (WEFT) method…
Non-linear equation of motion for higher curvature semiclassical gravity
Naman Kumar
We derive the non-linear semiclassical equation of motion for a general diffeomorphism-invariant theory of gravity by leveraging the thermodynamic properties of closed causal horiz…
A Statistical Derivation of Bekenstein-Hawking Entropy for Schwarzschild Black Holes
Naman Kumar
A microscopic derivation of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy for the Schwarzschild black hole was presented earlier by using a non-trivial phase space. It was argued that the Schwarz…
On the Accelerated Expansion of the Universe
Naman Kumar
If we look from a quantum perspective, the most natural way in which the universe can be created is in entangled pairs whose time flow is oppositely related. This suggests the idea…
Variable Brane Tension and Dark Energy
Naman Kumar
In this letter, we show that in a particular braneworld scenario with variable brane tension, we obtain matter acting as dark energy while the gravitational constant promoted t…
