Higher Dimensional Generalizations of the Kerr Black Hole
Gary T. Horowitz
A brief introduction is given to rotating black holes in more than four spacetime dimensions.
Tachyon Condensation and Black Strings
Gary T. Horowitz
We show that under certain conditions, closed string tachyon condensation produces a topology changing transition from black strings to Kaluza-Klein "bubbles of nothing." This can…
The Role of Dipole Charges in Black Hole Thermodynamics
Keith Copsey, Gary T. Horowitz
Modern derivations of the first law of black holes appear to show that the only charges that arise are monopole charges that can be obtained by surface integrals at infinity. Howev…
Holographic Description of AdS Cosmologies
Thomas Hertog, Gary T. Horowitz
To gain insight in the quantum nature of the big bang, we study the dual field theory description of asymptotically anti-de Sitter solutions of supergravity that have cosmological…
