Hairy black holes and solitons in global AdS 5
Oscar J. C. Dias, Pau Figueras, Shiraz Minwalla +3
We use a mix of analytic and numerical methods to exhaustively study a class of asymptotically global AdS solitons and hairy black hole solutions in negative cosmological constant…
Gravitational Turbulent Instability of Anti-de Sitter Space
Oscar J. C. Dias, Gary T. Horowitz, Jorge E. Santos
Bizon and Rostworowski have recently suggested that anti-de Sitter spacetime might be nonlinearly unstable to transfering energy to smaller and smaller scales and eventually formin…
Ultraspinning instability: the missing link
Oscar J. C. Dias, Ricardo Monteiro, Jorge E. Santos
We study linearized perturbations of Myers-Perry black holes in d=7, with two of the three angular momenta set to be equal, and show that instabilities always appear before extrema…
Black holes with only one Killing field
Oscar J. C. Dias, Gary T. Horowitz, Jorge E. Santos
We present the first examples of black holes with only one Killing field. The solutions describe five dimensional AdS black holes with scalar hair. The black holes are neither stat…
Black funnels and droplets in thermal equilibrium
Marco M. Caldarelli, Oscar J. C. Dias, Ricardo Monteiro +1
It has recently been proposed that the strong coupling behaviour of quantum field theories on a non-dynamical black hole background can be described, in the context of the AdS/CFT…
A Holographic Josephson Junction
Gary T. Horowitz, Jorge E. Santos, Benson Way
We construct a gravitational dual of a Josephson junction. Calculations on the gravity side reproduce the standard relation between the current across the junction and the phase di…
