Dissonant Black Droplets and Black Funnels
Sebastian Fischetti, Jorge E. Santos, Benson Way
A holographic field theory on a fixed black hole background has a gravitational dual represented by a black funnel or a black droplet. These states are "detuned" when the temperatu…
Instability of supersymmetric microstate geometries
Felicity C. Eperon, Harvey S. Reall, Jorge E. Santos
We investigate the classical stability of supersymmetric, asymptotically flat, microstate geometries with five non-compact dimensions. Such geometries admit an "evanescent ergosurf…
Localised Black Holes
Oscar J. C. Dias, Jorge E. Santos, Benson Way
We numerically construct asymptotically global black holes that are localised on the . These are solutions to type IIB supergravit…
Evidence for an Electrifying Violation of Cosmic Censorship
Gary T. Horowitz, Jorge E. Santos, Benson Way
We present a plausible counterexample to cosmic censorship in four dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory with asymptotically anti-de Sitter boundary conditions. Smooth initial data e…
AdS nonlinear instability: moving beyond spherical symmetry
Oscar J. C. Dias, Jorge E. Santos
Anti-de Sitter (AdS) is conjectured to be nonlinear unstable to a weakly turbulent mechanism that develops a cascade towards high frequencies, leading to black hole formation [1,2]…
Entropy production, viscosity bounds and bumpy black holes
Sean A. Hartnoll, David M. Ramirez, Jorge E. Santos
The ratio of shear viscosity to entropy density, , is computed in various holographic geometries that break translation invariance (but are isotropic). The shear viscosity doe…
