Emergence and Correspondence for String Theory Black Holes
Jeroen van Dongen, Sebastian De Haro, Manus Visser +1
This is one of a pair of papers that give a historical-\emph{cum}-philosophical analysis of the endeavour to understand black hole entropy as a statistical mechanical entropy obtai…
Conceptual Analysis of Black Hole Entropy in String Theory
Sebastian De Haro, Jeroen van Dongen, Manus Visser +1
The microscopic state counting of the extremal Reissner-Nordström black hole performed by Andrew Strominger and Cumrun Vafa in 1996 has proven to be a central result in string theo…

Jeremy Butterfield
This is a review of Hossenfelder's book, 'Lost in Math: How Beauty Leads Physics Astray'. The book gives a breezy exposition of the present situation in fundamental physics, and ra…
Non-locality and quasiclassical reality in Kent's formulation of relativistic quantum theory
Jeremy Butterfield, Brendan Marsh
We report Adrian Kent's proposed framework for a realist, one-world, Lorentz-invariant formulation of quantum theory. The idea is to postulate a final boundary condition: in effect…
