The problem with `The Problem of Time'
K. L. H. Bryan, A. J. M. Medved
We investigate three aspects of the supposed problem of time: The disagreement between the treatments of time in general relativity and quantum theory, the problem of recovering ti…
Lower limit on the entropy of black holes as inferred from gravitational wave observations
Ram Brustein, A. J. M. Medved, K. Yagi
Black hole (BH) thermodynamics was established by Bekenstein and Hawking, who made abstract theoretical arguments about the second law of thermodynamics and quantum theory in curve…
-point functions of strongly coupled fluids dual to generalized higher-derivative theories of gravity
M. M. W. Shawa, A. J. M. Medved
We calculate the connected stress-tensor correlation functions that are dual to a certain class of graviton scattering amplitudes in an asymptotically anti-de Sitter, black brane s…
Resisting collapse: How matter inside a black hole can withstand gravity
Ram Brustein, A. J. M. Medved
How can a Schwarzschild-sized matter system avoid a fate of gravitational collapse? To address this question, we critically reexamine the arguments that led to the "Buchdahl bound"…
Requiem for an ideal clock
K. L. H. Bryan, A. J. M. Medved
The `problem of time' remains an unresolved issue in all known physical descriptions of the Universe. One aspect of this problem is the conspicuous absence of time in the Wheeler-D…
