The First Law for the Lorentzian Rotating Taub-NUT

Ernesto Frodden, Diego Hidalgo

We show that the first law for the rotating Taub-NUT is straightforwardly established with the surface charge method. The entropy is explicitly found as a charge, and its value is…

Isometries from gauge transformations

Ernesto Frodden, Kirill Krasnov

In four dimensions one can use the chiral part of the spin connection as the main object that encodes geometry. The metric is then recovered algebraically from the curvature of thi…

Surface Charges Toolkit for Gravity

Ernesto Frodden, Diego Hidalgo

These notes provide a detailed catalog of surface charge formulas for different classes of gravity theories. The present catalog reviews and extends the existing literature on the…

Non-Relativistic Maxwell Chern-Simons Gravity

Luis Avilés, Ernesto Frodden, Joaquim Gomis +2

We consider a non-relativistic (NR) limit of -dimensional Maxwell Chern-Simons (CS) gravity with gauge algebra [Maxwell] . We obtain a finite NR CS…

Surface Charges for Gravity and Electromagnetism in the First Order Formalism

Ernesto Frodden, Diego Hidalgo

A new derivation of surface charges for 3+1 gravity coupled to Electromagnetism is obtained. Gravity theory is written in the tetrad-connection variables. The general derivation st…

Modelling black holes with angular momentum in loop quantum gravity

Ernesto Frodden, Alejandro Perez, Daniele Pranzetti +1

We construct a SU(2) connection formulation of Kerr isolated horizons. As in the non-rotating case, the model is based on a SU(2) Chern-Simons theory describing the degrees of free…

Statistical Entropy of a BTZ Black Hole from Loop Quantum Gravity

Ernesto Frodden, Marc Geiller, Karim Noui +1

We compute the statistical entropy of a BTZ black hole in the context of three-dimensional Euclidean loop quantum gravity with a cosmological constant . As in the four-dimension…

Black Hole Entropy from complex Ashtekar variables

Ernesto Frodden, Marc Geiller, Karim Noui +1

In loop quantum gravity, the number of microstates of a black hole for a given discrete geometry depends on the so-called Barbero-Immirzi parameter . Using a suit…

A local first law for black hole thermodynamics

Ernesto Frodden, Amit Ghosh, Alejandro Perez

We first show that stationary black holes satisfy an extremely simple local form of the first law δE=κ(l) δA/(8 π) where the thermodynamical energy E=A/(8πl) and (local) surface gr…
