Cold dark matter may be a fluid (or plasma) residing in a strongly-interacting hidden sector, rather than a population of weakly-coupled particles. Such a scenario admits a holographic description in terms of a cosmological braneworld…
Black holes are extreme manifestations of general relativity, so one might hope that exotic quantum effects would be amplified in their vicinities, perhaps providing clues to quantum gravity. The commonly accepted treatment of quantum…
I review a new (and still tentative) approach to black hole thermodynamics that seeks to explain black hole entropy in terms of microscopic quantum gravitational boundary states induced on the black hole horizon.
We study the thermalization of an ensemble of $N$ elementary, arbitrarily-complex, quantum systems, mutually noninteracting but coupled as electric or magnetic dipoles to a blackbody radiation. The elementary systems can be all the same or…
The thermodynamics of charged topological black holes (TBHs) with different horizon geometries in $d$-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell and 4-dimensional conformal gravities is revisited using the restricted phase space formalism. The concept of…
In classical thermodynamics, irreversible processes are accomplished with an increase of entropy and a release of heat into the environment. In the case of black hole thermodynamics, instead, the increase of entropy is related with the…
We consider a quantum field on a lukewarm black hole spacetime. We introduce a new uniform approximation to the radial equation, constructed using an extension of Green-Liouville asymptotics. We then use this new approximation to construct…
We establish the existence of stable and metastable stationary black hole bound states at finite temperature and chemical potentials in global and planar four-dimensional asymptotically anti-de Sitter space. We determine a number of…
In this article, we explore the holographic Q-picture description for the charged rotating black holes in the five-dimensional minimal supergravity. The central charge in the Q-picture depends only on black hole charge, therefore can be…
In this paper we consider the maximal volume and the action, which are conjectured to be gravity duals of the complexity, in the black hole geometries with end of the world branes. These geometries are duals of boundary states in CFTs which…
Regular black holes have become a popular alternative to the singular mathematical black holes predicted by general relativity as they circumvent mathematical pathologies associated with the singularity while preserving crucial black hole…
We put forward an attempt towards building a possible theoretical model to understand the observer dependent thermalization of black hole horizon. The near horizon Hamiltonian for a massless, chargeless particle is $xp$ type. This is…
By using the canonical Hamiltonian method, we obtain the mass and entropy of the black holes with general dynamical coupling constant $\lambda$ in Ho\v{r} ava-Lifshitz Gravity. Regardless of whether the horizon is sphere, plane or…

The thermodynamical process of Joule-Thomson expansion is extended to the lower-dimensional spacetimes by considering rotating, charged and charged rotating BTZ black hole metrics. The Joule-Thomson coefficients, the inversion curves and…
We consider the most general diffeomorphism invariant action in 1+1 spacetime dimensions that contains a metric, dilaton and Abelian gauge field, and has at most second derivatives of the fields. Our action contains a topological term…
