Solutions of Free Higher Spins in AdS
H. Lu, Kai-Nan Shao
We consider free massive and massless higher integer spins in AdS backgrounds in general D dimensions. We obtain the solutions corresponding to the highest-weight state of the spin…
Linearized Modes in Extended and Critical Gravities
Yi-Xin Chen, H. Lu, Kai-Nan Shao
We construct explicit solutions for the linearized massive and massless spin-2, vector and scalar modes around the AdS spacetimes in diverse dimensions. These modes may arise in ex…
Black hole phase transitions in Hořava-Lifshitz gravity
Qiao-Jun Cao, Yi-Xin Chen, Kai-Nan Shao
We study black hole phase transitions in (deformed) Hořava-Lifshitz (H-L) gravity, including the charged black hole and KS black hole. Stability of black holes in H-L gravity and t…
Thermodynamical Metrics and Black Hole Phase Transitions
Haishan Liu, H. Lu, Mingxing Luo +1
An important phase transition in black hole thermodynamics is associated with the divergence of the specific heat with fixed charge and angular momenta, yet one can demonstrate tha…
Hidden Conformal Symmetry of Rotating Black Hole with four Charges
Kai-Nan Shao, Zhibai Zhang
Kerr/CFT correspondence exhibits many remarkable connections between the near horizon Kerr black hole and a CFT. Recently, a hidden conformal symmetry in the solution space of Kerr…
Invariance of the Hamilton-Jacobi tunneling method for black holes and FRW model
Yi-Xin Chen, Kai-Nan Shao
In this paper we revisit the topic of Hawking radiation as tunneling. We show that the imaginary part of the action of the tunneling particle should be reconstructed in a covariant…
