Black hole information paradox without Hawking radiation
Hrvoje Nikolic
By entangling soft massless particles one can create an arbitrarily large amount of entanglement entropy that carries an arbitrarily small amount of energy. Dropping this entropy i…
Proof that Casimir force does not originate from vacuum energy
H. Nikolic
We present a simple general proof that Casimir force cannot originate from the vacuum energy of electromagnetic (EM) field. The full QED Hamiltonian consists of 3 terms: the pure e…
AdS/CFT without holography: A hidden dimension on the CFT side and implications for black-hole entropy
H. Nikolic
We propose a new non-holographic formulation of AdS/CFT correspondence, according to which quantum gravity on AdS and its dual non-gravitational field theory both live in the same…
Gravitational crystal inside the black hole
H. Nikolic
Crystals, as quantum objects typically much larger than their lattice spacing, are a counterexample to a frequent prejudice that quantum effects should not be pronounced at macrosc…
Violation of unitarity by Hawking radiation does not violate energy-momentum conservation
H. Nikolic
An argument by Banks, Susskind and Peskin (BSP), according to which violation of unitarity would violate either locality or energy-momentum conservation, is widely believed to be a…
Suppressing Hawking radiation by quantum Zeno effect
H. Nikolic
We present evidence that quantum Zeno effect, otherwise working only for microscopic systems, may also work for large black holes (BH's). The expectation that a BH geometry should…
