Abstract

In the microcanonical ensemble for string theory on AdSm×Sn AdS_m \times S^n, there is a phase transition between a black hole solution extended over the SnS^n and a solution localized on the SnS^n if the AdSmAdS_m has the topology R2×Sm2R^2 \times S^{m-2}. The phase transition will not appear if the AdSmAdS_m has the topology R2×Tm2R^2 \times T^{m-2}, that is, when the AdSm×SnAdS_m\times S^n geometry is regarded as arising from the near-horizon limit of a black m2m-2 brane. In this paper, we argue that when the black branes are rotating, the localization phase transition will occur between some rotating branes and corresponding Kerr black holes when the angular momentum reaches its critical value.
