Generalized Entanglement Capacity of de Sitter Space
Tom Banks, Patrick Draper
Near horizons, quantum fields of low spin exhibit densities of states that behave asymptotically like 1+1 dimensional conformal field theories. In effective field theory, imposing…

Breakdown of Field Theory in Near-Horizon Regions
Tom Banks, Patrick Draper, Manthos Karydas
We discuss back-reaction in the semiclassical treatment of quantum fields near a black hole. When the state deviates significantly from Hartle-Hawking, simple energetic considerati…
