Suppose a one-dimensional isometry group acts on a space, we can consider a submergion induced by the isometry, namely we obtain an orbit space by identification of points on the orbit of the group action. We study the causal structure of…
The effects of asymptotically anti-de Sitter wormholes in low-energy field theory are calculated in full detail for three different matter contents: a conformal scalar field, an electromagnetic field and gravitons. There exists a close…
On the basis of the C-metric, we investigate the conformal Schwarzschild - deSitter spacetime and compute the source stress tensor and study its properties, including the energy conditions. Then we study its extremal version ($b^{2} =…
We study a solution of Einstein's equations that describes a straight cosmic string with a variable angular deficit, starting with a $2 \pi$ deficit at the core. We show that the coordinate singularity associated to this defect can be…
We consider the entropy of a quantum scalar field on a background black hole geometry in asymptotically anti-de Sitter space-time, using the ``brick wall'' approach. In anti-de Sitter space, the theory has no infra-red divergences, and all…
Vacuum Einstein theory in three spacetime dimensions is locally trivial, but admits many solutions that are globally different, particularly if there is a negative cosmological constant. The classical theory of such locally "anti-de Sitter"…
We construct a covariant phase space for Einstein gravity in dimensions d>=4 with negative cosmological constant, describing black holes in local equilibrium. Thus, space-times under consideration are asymptotically anti-de Sitter and admit…
We study anti-de Sitter black holes in 2+1 dimensions in terms of Chern Simons gauge theory of the anti-de Sitter group coupled to a Source. Taking the source to be an anti-de Sitter state specified by its Casimir invariants, we show how…
We present the metric for a rotating black hole with a cosmological constant and with arbitrary angular momenta in all higher dimensions. The metric is given in both Kerr-Schild and Boyer-Lindquist form. In the Euclidean-signature case, we…
In this paper we propose a straightforward method for understanding the thermodynamics of black holes in de Sitter space, one that will allow us to study these black holes in a way that is analogous to the anti-de Sitter case. As per usual,…
When a soft elastic cylinder is bent beyond a critical radius of curvature, a sharp fold in the form of a kink appears at its inner side while the outer side remains smooth. The critical radius increases linearly with the diameter of the…
A generalisation of the asymptotic wormhole boundary condition for the case of spacetimes with a cosmological horizon is proposed. In particular, we consider de Sitter spacetime with small cosmological constant. The wave functions selected…
Exterior geometries of physical black holes are believed to asymptotically approach the Kerr--de Sitter spacetime at late times. A characteristic feature of that vacuum Einstein solution is the presence of a hidden symmetry generated by a…
We show that, contrary to what is usually claimed in the literature, the zero mass limit of Kerr spacetime is not flat Minkowski space but a spacetime whose geometry is only locally flat. This limiting spacetime, as the Kerr spacetime…
We consider the Kerr-de Sitter (Kerr-dS) black hole in various dimensions. Introducing a counterterm, we show that the total action of these spacetimes are finite. We compute the masses and the angular momenta of Kerr-dS spaces with one…
We study wormhole geometries embedded in an expanding universe within a four-scalar non-linear $\sigma$ model, where the target-space metric is identified with the spacetime Ricci tensor. In this framework, wormholes can remain stable even…
Recently it has been shown that a 2+1 dimensional black hole can be created by a collapse of two colliding massless particles in otherwise empty anti-de Sitter space. Here we generalize this construction to the case of a non-zero impact…
In this article we investigate cylindrical thin-shell wormholes which are asymptotically anti-de Sitter. We analyze their stability under perturbations preserving the symmetry by using two different methods. We compare the results with…
We construct a positive constant curvature space by identifying some points along a Killing vector in a de Sitter Space. This space is the counterpart of the three-dimensional Schwarzschild-de Sitter solution in higher dimensions. This…
We present several classes of exact solutions in the Einstein-Klein-Gordon system with a cosmological constant. The spacetime has spherical, plane, or hyperbolic symmetry and the higher-dimensional solutions are obtained in a closed form…
