Normal modes of charged AdS solitons
Mengqi Lu, Ming Zhang, Robert B. Mann
We study massive charged scalar field perturbations in four- and five- dimensional charged anti-de Sitter soliton spacetimes. Appropriate boundary conditions are established via a…
Finite-cutoff Holographic Thermodynamics
Ming Zhang, Wen-Di Tan, Mengqi Lu +3
We develop a framework for holographic thermodynamics in finite-cutoff holography, extending the anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory (AdS/CFT) correspondence to incorporate a fin…
Existence of Vacuum Wormholes in Einsteinian Cubic Gravity
Mengqi Lu, Jiayue Yang, Robert B. Mann
Wormhole solutions in gravitational theories typically require exotic matter. Here we present a wormhole solution to the field equations of Einsteinian Cubic Gravity -- a phenomeno…
Gravitational Wormholes
Mengqi Lu, Jiayue Yang, Robert B. Mann
Spacetime wormholes are evidently an essential component of the construction of a time machine. Within the context of general relativity, such objects require, for their formation,…
Lagrangian partition functions subject to a fixed spatial volume constraint in the Lovelock theory
Mengqi Lu, Robert B. Mann
We evaluate the quantum gravity partition function that counts the dimension of the Hilbert space of a simply connected spatial region of fixed proper volume in the context of Love…
Maxwell construction and multi-criticality in uncharged generalized quasi-topological black Holes
Mengqi Lu, Robert B. Mann
We demonstrate the existence of -tuple critical points of uncharged AdS black holes in generalized quasi-topological theories. The criticality is shown to have a geometrical int…
Generalized quasi-topological gravities: the whole shebang
Pablo Bueno, Pablo A. Cano, Robie A. Hennigar +2
Generalized quasi-topological gravities (GQTGs) are higher-curvature extensions of Einstein gravity in -dimensions. Their defining properties include possessing second-order lin…
