The Black Hole Interior and a Curious Sum Rule
Amit Giveon, Nissan Itzhaki, Jan Troost
We analyze the Euclidean geometry near non-extremal NS5-branes in string theory, including regions beyond the horizon and beyond the singularity of the black brane. The various reg…
String theory at the tip of the cigar
Amit Giveon, Nissan Itzhaki
In arXiv:1208.3930 we argued that string theory at the tip of the cigar geometry, obtained by a Wick rotation of the Schwarzschild background, exhibits unexpected features that inc…
Studying the Peculiar Velocity Bulk Flow in a Sparse Survey of Type-Ia SNe
Ben Rathaus, Ely D. Kovetz, Nissan Itzhaki
Studies of the peculiar velocity bulk flow based on different tools and datasets have been consistent so far in their estimation of the direction of the flow, which also happens to…
Orbifold Line Topology and the Cosmic Microwave Background
Ben Rathaus, Assaf Ben-David, Nissan Itzhaki
We extend our study of a universe with a non-classical stringy topology, and consider an orbifold line topology, . This topology has a fi…
