Recently a new class of asymptotically AdS ultra-spinning black holes has been constructed with a noncompact horizon of finite area [1], in which the asymptotic rotation is effectively boosted to the speed of light. We employ this technique…
It is a deceptively simple question to ask how acoustic disturbances propagate in a non-homogeneous flowing fluid. This question can be answered by invoking the language of Lorentzian differential geometry: If the fluid is barotropic and…
