Abstract The standard Λ Cold Dark Matter (ΛCDM) cosmological model provides a good
description of a wide range of astrophysical and cosmological data. However, there are a …

The relation between thermal transport and gravity was highlighted in the seminal work by
Luttinger in 1964, and has been extensively developed to understand thermal transport …

We review the formalism of holographic renormalization. We start by discussing
mathematical results on asymptotically anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetimes. We then outline the …

A new final state of gravitational collapse is proposed. By extending the concept of Bose–
Einstein condensation to gravitational systems, a cold, dark, compact object with an interior …

We attempt to clarify several aspects concerning the recently presented four-dimensional
Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We argue that the limiting procedure outlined in [Phys. Rev …

These lectures present an elementary discussion of some background material relevant to
the problem of de Sitter quantum gravity. The first two lectures discuss the classical …

We investigate the charged Schwarzschild–anti-de Sitter (SAdS) BH thermodynamics in 5d
Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet gravity with electromagnetic field. The Hawking–Page phase …

A new final endpoint of complete gravitational collapse is proposed. By extending the
concept of Bose–Einstein condensation to gravitational systems, a static, spherically …

The de Sitter/conformal field theory (dS/CFT) correspondence is illuminated through an
analysis of massive scalar field theory in d-dimensional de Sitter space. We consider a one …

We propose a novel prescription for computing the boundary stress tensor and charges of
asymptotically de Sitter (dS) spacetimes from data at early or late time infinity. If there is a …
