Perturbations of Black Holes in Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton-Axion (EMDA) Theories
C. N. Pope, D. O. Rohrer, B. F. Whiting
We extend our earlier work on the linearised perturbations of static black holes in Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton (EMD) theories to the case where the black holes are solutions in an en…
On The Perturbations of Gibbons-Maeda Black Holes in Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton Theories
C. N. Pope, D. O. Rohrer, B. F. Whiting
The study of perturbations around black hole backgrounds in general relativity and Einstein-Maxwell theory has a long history, going back to the work of Regge and Wheeler in the 19…
An Exact, Coordinate Independent Classical Firewall Transformation
Nathaniel A. Strauss, Bernard F. Whiting
A proposal for resolving the black hole information paradox was recently put forward by 't Hooft in the form of his firewall transformation. Although this proposal has begun to gai…
A Classical Firewall Transformation as a Canonical Transformation
Nathaniel A. Strauss, Bernard F. Whiting
The firewall transformation put forward by 't Hooft in recent years has made ambitious claims of solving the firewall problem and the black hole information paradox while maintaini…
