AdS bubbles, entropy and closed string tachyons

T Nishioka, T Takayanagi - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the conjectured connection between AdS bubbles (AdS solitons) and closed string
tachyon condensations. We confirm that the entanglement entropy, which measures the …

Regularization of odd-dimensional AdS gravity: Kounterterms

R Olea - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
As an alternative to the standard Dirichlet counterterms prescription, I introduce the concept
of Kounterterms as the boundary terms with explicit dependence on the extrinsic curvature K …

Hairy black hole chemistry

D Astefanesei, RB Mann, R Rojas - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 - Springer
A bstract We study the thermodynamics of an exact hairy black hole solution in Anti-deSitter
(AdS) spacetime. We use the counterterm method supplemented with boundary terms for the …

D Astefanesei, N Banerjee, S Dutta - Journal of High Energy …, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate five-dimensional static (non-) extremal black hole solutions in higher
derivative Anti-de Sitter gravity theories with neutral scalars non-minimally coupled to gauge …

Black string solutions with negative cosmological constant

RB Mann, E Radu, C Stelea - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2006 - iopscience.iop.org
We present arguments for the existence of new black string solutions with negative
cosmological constant. These higher-dimensional configurations have no dependence on …

New multiply nutty spacetimes

R Mann, C Stelea - Physics Letters B, 2006 - Elsevier
We construct new solutions of the vacuum Einstein field equations with multiple NUT
parameters, with and without cosmological constant. These solutions describe spacetimes …

Phase transitions in higher derivative gravity

TK Dey, S Mukherji, S Mukhopadhyay… - Journal of High Energy …, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
This paper deals with black holes, bubbles and orbifolds in Gauss–Bonnet theory in five
dimensional anti de Sitter space. In particular, we study stable, unstable and metastable …

Negative mass solitons in gravity

H Cebeci, Ö Sarıoğlu, B Tekin - … Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2006 - APS
We first reconstruct the conserved (Abbott-Deser) charges in the spin-connection formalism
of gravity for asymptotically (Anti)-de Sitter spaces, and then compute the masses of the A d …

Black strings with a negative cosmological constant: inclusion of electric charge and rotation

Y Brihaye, E Radu, C Stelea - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
We generalize the vacuum static black string solutions of Einstein's equations with negative
cosmological constant recently discussed in literature, by including an electromagnetic field …

Phase transitions of large N orbifold gauge theories

Y Hikida - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2006 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the phase structures of Script N= 4 U (N) super Yang-Mills theories on Bbb R× S
3/Bbb Z k with large N. The theory has many vacua labelled by the holonomy matrix along …
