We consider black holes in anti-de Sitter space AdS_{p+2} (p = 2,3,5), which have hyperbolic, flat or spherical event horizons. The $O(\alpha'^3)$ corrections (or the leading corrections in powers of the eleven-dimensional Planck length) to…
It is well known that multigrid methods are optimally efficient for solution of elliptic equations (O(N)), which means that effort is proportional to the number of points at which the solution is evaluated). Thus this is an ideal method to…
It has been argued recently that string theory effects qualitatively modify the effective black hole geometry experienced by modes with radial momentum of order $1/\sqrt{\alpha'}$. At tree level, these $\alpha'$-effects can be explicitly…
We present techniques for successfully performing numerical relativity simulations of binary black holes with fourth-order accuracy. Our simulations are based on a new coding framework which currently supports higher order finite…
We give some examples in which neglecting the interactions between particles or truncating the description of a black hole to the spherically symmetric mode leads to unphysical results. The restoration of the interactions and higher angular…
We study scattering of minimally coupled massless scalar fields by non-extremal spherically symmetric black holes in d dimensions with string-theoretical alpha' corrections. We then obtain a formula for the low frequency absorption cross…
We numerically analyze the evolution of a two-dimensional dilatonic black hole, within the CGHS model. We focus our attention on the finite-mass corrections to the universal evaporation rate which applies at the large-mass limit. Our…
