On the Stability of Black Strings/Branes∗
نویسنده
چکیده
Some issues on the stability of black string or brane solutions are summarized briefly. The stability of dS/AdS-Schwarzschild black strings has been investigated. Interestingly, the AdS-Schwarzschild black strings turn out to be stable as the horizon size becomes larger than the AdS scale. It is also shown that BTZ black strings in four dimensions are stable regardless of the horizon size. Such stable feature seems to be common for several known black strings in dimensions lower than five. Some implications of our results on the role of non-uniformity in stable black string configurations are also discussed.

Instabilities of Near-Extremal Smeared Branes and the Correlated Stability Conjecture
We consider the classical and local thermodynamic stability of nonand near-extremal Dp-branes smeared on a transverse direction. These two types of stability are connected through the correlated stability conjecture for which we give a proof in this specific class of branes. The proof is analogous to that of Reall for unsmeared branes, and includes the construction of an appropriate two-paramet...
متن کاملClassical Stability of Black Branes ∗
Classical stability behaviors of various static black brane backgrounds under small perturbations have been summarized briefly. They include cases of black strings in AdS5 space, charged black p-brane solutions in the type II supergravity, and the BTZ black string in four-dimensions. The relationship between dynamical stability and local thermodynamic stability the so-called Gubser-Mitra conjec...
متن کاملH-branes and Chiral Strings
We add a simple boundary term to the Polyakov action and construct a new class of D-branes with a single null direction. On the string world-sheet the system is described by a single quantized left-mode sector of a conformal field theory. By a Wick rotation of spacetime, we map open strings attached to null branes into chiral closed strings. We suggest that these so-called H-branes describe qua...
متن کاملOn black strings & branes in Lovelock gravity
It is well known that black strings and branes may be constructed in pure Einstein gravity simply by adding flat directions to a vacuum black hole solution. A similar construction holds in the presence of a cosmological constant. While these constructions fail in general Lovelock theories, we show that they carry over straightforwardly within a class of Lovelock gravity theories that have (loca...
متن کاملExact Description of Black Holes on Branes II: Comparison with BTZ Black Holes and Black Strings
We extend our recent discussion of four-dimensional black holes bound to a two-brane to include a negative cosmological constant on the brane. We find that for large masses, the solutions are precisely BTZ black holes on the brane, and BTZ ‘black strings’ in the bulk. For smaller masses, there are localized black holes which look like BTZ with corrections that fall off exponentially. We compute...
