The Weak Gravity Conjecture is a nontrivial conjecture about quantum gravity that makes sharp, falsifiable predictions which can be checked in a broad range of string theory examples. However, in the presence of massless scalar fields…
This comment is in response to the article titled "A Non-Parametric Estimate of Mass Scoured in Galaxy Cores" (arXiv:1006.0488) written by Hopkins and Hernquist. This comment politely mentions two relevant papers in which the main…
We study one-loop divergences in Einstein-Maxwell theory and their implications for the weak gravity conjecture. In particular, we show that renormalization of these divergences leads to positivity of higher-derivative corrections to the…
A recent paper by Gambini, Rastgoo and Pullin [arXiv:1106.1417 investigates the important issue of constraints from Lorentz invariance on Planck scale physics, arguing that the classic analysis of Collins, Perez, Sudarsky, Urrutia and…
Comment on B.A. Bernevig, D. Giuliano, and R.B. Laughlin, Phys. Rev. Lett. 86, 3392 (2001).
We reply to the criticism raised by Volovik in his Comment (cond-mat/9805159) and by Hirschfeld et al. in their Comment (cond-mat/9806085).
This is a short reply to arXiv:2112.00436v1 and arXiv:2111.09347v1 by C. Bracken, J.R. Hance, and S. Hossenfelder. I precise some elements concerning i) the methodology of my previous version of the comment [arXiv:2111.13357v3] to…
Within the effective field theory approach to gravity, deviations from general relativity can be systematically described by higher-curvature operators. However, computing the resulting corrections to black hole quasinormal mode spectra…
In our reply, we show that the objections put forward in cond-mat/0508763 concerning our paper, Phys. Rev. Lett. 93, 136405 (2004), are not valid: (i) There is no orthogonality catastrophe (OC) for our calculations, and it is also generally…
The author cannot grant that Quantum Mechanics satisfies the axioms described here when repeated measurements are at stake. This does not compromise the validity of the conclusions of the previous article "A glance beyond the quantum…
We comment on a recent article of M.W.Evans, Acta Physica Polonica B38 (2007) 2211. We point out that the equations underlying Evans' theory are highly problematic. Moreover, we demonstrate that the so-called ``spin connection resonance'',…
Revisions are almost entirely in the introduction and conclusion. Results are unchanged, however the comments and recommendations on different generators were changed, and more references were added.
First version: del Barco et al. submitted recently a comment [arXiv:0812.4070] on our latest Phys. Rev. Lett. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 237204 (2008)], claiming three basic mistakes. We show here that their claims are unjustified and based on…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author because similar published work on the topic was overlooked. See S. Deser and A. Waldron, Nucl. Phys. B 631, 369-387 (2002).
Withdrawn by arXiv administration because authors have forged affiliations and acknowledgements, and have not adequately responded to charges [hep-th/9912039] of unattributed use of verbatim material.
In this comment we show that the approach presented by Foj\'on et al~\cite{Fojon10} is not as accurate as they claim. A straightforward calculation using the models considered buy those authors clearly shows that the spectral method, which…
A recent Comment [arXiv:0811.2790] on the Letter 'Quantum Bounce and Cosmic Recall' by the authors is shown to arise from an incorrect understanding of the issues at hand and of our analysis. The conclusions of Bojowald's Comment are shown…
Here we explain how C. Tsallis' reply (Entropy 2021, 23(5), 630) fails to respond to points raised in (Entropy 2020, 22(10), 1110) and introduces further inconsistencies on the origin of black hole entropy. In his reply, Tsallis argues that…
A review of recent investigations of black holes in higher curvature theories of gravity.
We show that black holes can be made of light by adding gravity to the discussion of Alvarez-Dominguez et al., arXiv:2405.02389 [PRL 130, 041401 (2024)].
