Gravitational Effective Field Theories and Black Hole Mechanics
Iain Davies
This PhD thesis is submitted to arXiv as a pedagogical resource on gravitational effective field theories and the laws of black hole mechanics. It begins with an introduction to th…
The 0th and 2nd Laws of Black Hole Mechanics in Einstein-Maxwell-Scalar Effective Field Theory
Iain Davies
There has been recent progress in extending the 0th and 2nd laws of black hole mechanics to gravitational effective field theories (EFTs). We generalize these results to a much lar…
A non-perturbative second law of black hole mechanics in effective field theory
Iain Davies, Harvey S. Reall
We describe a method for defining dynamical black hole entropy in gravitational effective field theories (EFTs). The entropy is constructed order by order in derivatives. For any f…
Dynamical Black Hole Entropy in Effective Field Theory
Iain Davies, Harvey S. Reall
In recent work, Hollands, Kovács and Reall have built on previous work of Wall to provide a definition of dynamical black hole entropy for gravitational effective field theories (E…
Well-posed formulation of Einstein-Maxwell effective field theory
Iain Davies, Harvey S. Reall
We consider the well-posedness of the initial value problem for Einstein-Maxwell theory modified by higher derivative effective field theory corrections. Field redefinitions can be…
