AdS bubbles, entropy and closed string tachyons
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
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 …

Negative mass solitons in gravity
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 …
