2+1 dimensional gravity in AAdS spacetimes with spatial wormhole slices: Reduced phase space dynamics and the BTZ black hole
Anurag Kaushal, Naveen S. Prabhakar, Spenta R. Wadia
We solve Einstein's equations with negative cosmological constant in dimensions in the Hamiltonian formulation. The spacetime has the topology of where…
A gauge invariant Hamiltonian evolution across the black hole horizon in asymptotically AdS spacetimes
Anurag Kaushal, Naveen S. Prabhakar, Spenta R. Wadia
We study the quantum dynamics of a probe scalar field in the background of a black hole in AAdS spacetime in the Hamiltonian formulation of general relativity in the maximal slicin…
Quantum Scalar Field Dynamics On A Maximally Sliced Two-sided AdS Black Hole Spacetime
Anurag Kaushal, Naveen S. Prabhakar, Spenta R. Wadia
We study the semi-classical dynamics of a scalar field in the background of a black hole in an asymptotically AdS (AAdS) spacetime, in the framework of the Hamiltonian formulation…
Emergent Time in Hamiltonian General Relativity
Anurag Kaushal, Naveen S. Prabhakar, Spenta R. Wadia
In this paper we introduce a definition of time that emerges in terms of the geometry of the configuration space of a dynamical system. We illustrate this, using the Hamilton-Jacob…
