When AdS Grows Hair: Boson Stars, Black Holes, and Double-Trace Deformations
Oscar J. C. Dias, David Sola Gil, Jorge E. Santos
We analyse three-dimensional Einstein gravity coupled to a massive complex scalar field with double-trace boundary conditions. Using high-precision spectral methods, we construct r…
Double-trace instability of BTZ black holes
Oscar J. C. Dias, David Sola Gil, Jorge E. Santos
We perform a comprehensive study of the linear stability of rotating BTZ black holes under massive scalar field perturbations with double-trace boundary conditions. While BTZ black…
Localised Black Holes
Oscar J. C. Dias, Jorge E. Santos
We numerically construct asymptotically global black holes in type IIB supergravity, with $\mathbb{R}_t \times SO(2) \times…
The Low Energy Limit of BFSS Quantum Mechanics
Oscar J. C. Dias, Jorge E. Santos
We investigate the low-energy regime of BFSS quantum mechanics using its holographic dual. We identify three distinct thermodynamic phases (black holes) and analyze their thermodyn…
Localized states of BFSS super quantum mechanics
Oscar J. C. Dias, Jorge E. Santos
We analyze the recently discovered localized and non-uniform phases of the Banks-Fischler-Shenker-Susskind (BFSS) matrix quantum mechanics. Building on [1], we provide first-princi…
Black hole spectroscopy: from theory to experiment
Emanuele Berti, Vitor Cardoso, Gregorio Carullo +70
The "ringdown" radiation emitted by oscillating black holes has great scientific potential. By carefully predicting the frequencies and amplitudes of black hole quasinormal modes a…
