We study the static, analytical solution of black holes in the warped DGP braneworld scenario. We show that the linearized field equations and matching conditions lead to solutions that are not compatible with Schwarzschild-(A)dS$_{(4)}$…
Recently, Hellerman and Schnabl considered the dynamics of unstable D-branes in the background of a linear dilaton. Remarkably, they were able to construct light-like tachyon solutions which interpolate smoothly between the perturbative and…
It can be expected that the respective endpoints of the Gregory-Laflamme black brane instability and the Rayleigh-Plateau membrane instability are related because the bifurcation diagrams of the black hole-black string system and the liquid…
We calculate the quantum corrections to the entropy of a very large black hole, coming from the theory of a $D$-dimensional, non-critical bosonic string. We show that, for $D >2$, as a result of modular invariance the entropy is ultraviolet…
We present a short review on the electric and magnetic black strings in 5D spacetime with one compact dimension. Linear static perturbations of these objects indicate presence of the threshold unstable mode. Analysis of the mode shows that…
In string theory, black holes are expected to transition into string stars as their Hawking temperatures approach the Hagedorn temperature. We study string stars and their phase transitions in the Euclidean spacetime…
We consider a d-dimensional spherically symmetric dilatonic R^2 string corrected black hole solution. We study its stability under tensor type gravitational perturbations and compute the absorption cross section for low frequency…
It has been proved that the charged stringy black holes are stable under the perturbations of massive charged scalar fields. However, superradiant instability can be generated by adding the mirror-like boundary condition to the composed…
New exact solutions of Einstein equations which describe black hole with radial cosmic strings are constructed in the paper. The case of infinitely thin strings and the case of delocalized strings are considered. The case of delocalized…
We point out that in the limit of large number of dimensions a wide class of non-extremal neutral black holes has a universal near horizon limit. The limiting geometry is the two-dimensional black hole of string theory with a…
Computations in general relativity have revealed an interesting phase diagram for the black hole - black string phase transition, with three different black objects present for a range of mass values. We can add charges to this system by…
We consider the inhomogeneous decay of an unstable D-brane of bosonic string theory in a linear dilaton background in a light-cone frame. At the lowest level, the dynamical equation that describes this process is a generalisation (that…
The superradiant instability of rotating black holes with negative cosmological constant is studied by numerically solving the full 3+1-dimensional Einstein equations. We find evidence for an epoch dominated by a solution with a single…
We consider a pulsating string near a non-extremal black p-brane (p=5 and p=6) and investigate the chaos in the corresponding string dynamics by examining the Fast Lyapunov indicator(FLI) and Poincare section. In our system, the energy and…
We construct time-dependent charged black string solutions in five-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory. In the far region, the spacetime approaches a five-dimensional Kasner universe with a expanding three-dimensional space and a shrinking…
General Relativity simplifies dramatically in the limit that the number of spacetime dimensions D is infinite: it reduces to a theory of non-interacting particles, of finite radius but vanishingly small cross sections, which do not emit nor…
In this paper we study fermion perturbations in four dimensional black holes of string theory, obtained either from a non-extreme configuration of three intersecting five-branes with a boost along the common string or from a non-extreme…
In this paper, we derive rotating black string solutions in the presence of two kinds of nonlinear electromagnetic fields, so called Born-Infeld and power Maxwell invariant. Investigation of the solutions show that for the Born-Infeld black…
We propose a new string model by adding a higher-order gradient term to the rigid string, so that the stiffness can be positive or negative without loosing stability. In the large-D approximation, the model has three phases, one of which…
Black hole uniqueness is known to fail in higher dimensions, and the multiplicity of black hole phases leads to phase transitions physics in General Relativity. The black-hole black-string transition is a prime realization of such a system…
