Hietarinta Chern-Simons supergravity and its asymptotic structure

Patrick Concha, Octavio Fierro, Evelyn Rodríguez

In this paper we present the Hietarinta Chern-Simons supergravity theory in three space-time dimensions which extends the simplest Poincaré supergravity theory. After approaching t…

Scalar correlators and normal modes in holographic neutron stars

Tobías Canavesi, Octavio Fierro, Nicolás Grandi +1

We study a scalar field in the background of a holographic neutron star at finite temperature and analyze its asymptotic behavior to compute the two-point correlator at the boundar…

Slowly rotating black holes in Quasi-topological gravity

Octavio Fierro, Nicolas Mora, Julio Oliva

While cubic Quasi-topological gravity is unique, there is a family of quartic Quasi-topological gravities in five dimensions. These theories are defined by leading to a first order…

On the supersymmetric extension of asymptotic symmetries in three spacetime dimensions

Ricardo Caroca, Patrick Concha, Octavio Fierro +1

In this work we obtain known and new supersymmetric extensions of diverse asymptotic symmetries defined in three spacetime dimensions by considering the semigroup expansion method.…

Scalar probes on wormholes in Lovelock theories with unique vacuum

Octavio Fierro, Daniela Narbona, Julio Oliva +2

In this paper we present a new family of wormhole geometries in Lovelock theories with a unique vacuum, and study their stability under scalar field perturbations. As the solutions…

Superradiance of charged black holes in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet Gravity

Octavio Fierro, Nicolas Grandi, Julio Oliva

In this paper we show that electrically charged black holes in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity suffer from a superradiant instability. It is triggered by a charged scalar field that…

Black holes in quasi-topological gravity and conformal couplings

Mariano Chernicoff, Octavio Fierro, Gaston Giribet +1

Lovelock theory of gravity provides a tractable model to investigate the effects of higher-curvature terms in the context of AdS/CFT. Yielding second order, ghost-free field equati…
