We determine hidden conformal symmetries behind the evolution equations of black hole perturbations in a vector-tensor theory of gravity. Such hidden symmetries are valid everywhere in the exterior region of a spherically symmetric,…
Rotating maximal black holes in four-dimensional de Sitter space, for which the outer event horizon coincides with the cosmological horizon, have an infinite near-horizon region described by the rotating Nariai metric. We show that the…
A semi-classical reasoning leads to the non-commutativity of space and time coordinates near the horizon of static non-extreme black hole, and renders the classical horizon spreading to {\it Quantum Horizon} . In terms of the background…
We analyze the near horizon conformal symmetry for black hole solutions in gravity with a conformally coupled scalar field using the method proposed by Majhi and Padmanabhan recently. It is shown that the entropy of the black holes of the…
We consider maximally supersymmetric U(N) Yang-Mills in (1+p)-dimensions for p < 3. In the 't Hooft large N limit this is conjectured to be dual to N Dp-branes in the decoupling limit. At low temperatures T << \lambda^{1/(3-p)} governed by…
Several recent results have hinted that black hole thermodynamics in loop quantum gravity simplifies if one chooses an imaginary Barbero-Immirzi parameter $\gamma=i$. This suggests a connection with $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$ or…
A key test of any quantum theory of gravity is its ability to reproduce the known thermodynamic properties of black holes. A statistical mechanical description of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy once seemed remote, but today we suffer an…
We consider the near-horizon geometry of supersymmetric extremal black holes in un-gauaged and gauged 5-dimensional supergravity, coupled to abelian vector multiplets. By analyzing the global properties of the Killing spinors, we prove that…
In these notes we describe recent progress in understanding finite size corrections to the black hole entropy. Much of the earlier work concerning quantum black holes has been in the limit of large charges when the area of the even horizon…
Inspired by the recent conjecture that black holes are condensates of gravitons, we investigate a simple model for the black hole degrees of freedom that is consistent both from the point of view of Quantum mechanics and of General…
We study the possibility of constructing non-BPS charged black holes in 5D Poincare supergravity by partially violating superconformal Killing spinor equations. However, solutions to these modified first order equations are inconsistent…
Melvin-Kerr black hole represents a generalization of the Kerr black hole to the case of a non-vanishing external magnetic field via the Harrison transformation. Conformal mechanics related to the near horizon limit of such a black hole…
A number of physical systems exhibit a particular form of asymptotic conformal invariance: within a particular range of distances, they are characterized by a long-range conformal interaction (inverse square potential), the absence of…
Bound states of BPS particles in five-dimensional N=2 supergravity are counted by a topological index. We compute this bound state index exactly for two and three black holes as a function of the SU(2)_L angular momentum. The required…
We consider accelerated black hole horizons with and without defects. These horizons appear in the $C$-metric solution to Einstein equations and in its generalization to the case where external fields are present. These solutions realize a…
We study a class of supersymmetric spinning particle models derived from the radial quantization of stationary, spherically symmetric black holes of four dimensional N= 2 supergravities. By virtue of the c-map, these spinning particles move…
We present a quantum theory of black hole (and other) horizons, in which the standard assumptions of complementarity are preserved without contradicting information theoretic considerations. After the scrambling time, the quantum mechanical…
In supersymmetric theories the mass of any state is bounded below by the values of some of its charges. The corresponding bounds in case of Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordstr\"om black holes are known to coincide with the requirement that…
We consider stationary, non-extremal black holes in 11-dimensional supergravity having isometry group $\mathbb{R} \times U(1)^8$. We prove that such a black hole is uniquely specified by its angular momenta, its electric charges associated…
We consider generic rotating axially symmetric "dirty" (surrounded by matter) black holes. Near-horizon circular equatorial orbits are examined in two different cases of near-extremal (small surface gravity $\kappa $) and exactly extremal…
