Explosions from Rotating Very Massive Star Collapses to Black Holes: Effects of Nuclear Burning

Sho Fujibayashi, Alan Tsz-Lok Lam, Yuichiro Sekiguchi +1

We investigate the collapse of rotating very massive and supermassive stellar cores using numerical relativity simulations including an alpha-chain nuclear reaction network and neu…

Bouncing Geodesics, Singularities, and the Cavity Thermal Product Formula in Asymptotically Flat and de Sitter Black Holes

SaÅ¡o Grozdanov, Sašo Grozdanov, Vita Movrin +1

We investigate the existence and implications of ``bouncing geodesics'' in asymptotically flat Schwarzschild and Schwarzschild--de Sitter black holes. These trajectories, which pro…

Bouncing geodesics, black hole singularities, and singularities of thermal correlators

Sašo Grozdanov, Samuel Valach, Mile Vrbica

Bouncing geodesics have been used as valuable probes of black hole singularities. In the dual boundary theory, the presence of bouncing geodesics is encoded in the analytic structu…

Fooling the Censor: Going beyond inner horizons with the OPE

Nejc Čeplak, Hong Liu, Andrei Parnachev +1

The analytic structure of holographic correlation functions at finite temperature contains information about curvature singularities of black holes in AdS. We compute the Operator…

Thermal Correlators and Black Holes: From Infinity to Singularity

Samuel Valach

This thesis explores thermal correlation functions in conformal field theories (CFTs) and their connection to black hole geometry within the AdS/CFT correspondence, using a near-bo…
