Quantization of AdS3 Black Holes in External Fields: Semiclassical Results from Pure Gravity
نویسندگان
چکیده
s2 1 1d-dimensional anti–de Sitter (AdS) gravity is quantized in the presence of an external scalar field. We find that the coupling between the scalar field and gravity is equivalently described by a perturbed conformal field theory at the boundary of AdS3. This allows us to perform a microscopic computation of the transition rates between black hole states due to absorption and induced emission of the scalar field. Detailed thermodynamic balance then yields Hawking radiation as spontaneous emission, and we find agreement with the semiclassical result, including greybody factors. This result also has application to four and five-dimensional black holes in supergravity. [S0031-9007(98)07124-5]

Quantization of AdS3 Black Holes in External Fields
2+1-dimensional Anti-deSitter gravity is quantized in the presence of an external scalar field. We find that the coupling between the scalar field and gravity is equivalently described by a perturbed conformal field theory at the boundary of AdS3. We derive the explicit form of this coupling, which allows us to perform a microscopic computation of the transition rates between black hole states ...
متن کاملConstraints on Black Holes in Classical and Semiclassical Theories of Gravity
Constraints on the geometry of a static spherically symmetric black hole are obtained by requiring the spacetime curvature to be analytic at the event horizon. For a zero temperature black hole further constraints are obtained by also requiring that the semiclassical trace equation be satisfied when conformally invariant fields are present. It is found that zero temperature black holes whose si...
متن کاملQuantum gravitational corrections to black hole geometries
We calculate perturbative quantum gravity corrections to generic eternal two-dimensional dilaton gravity spacetimes. We estimate the leading corrections to the AdS2 black hole entropy and determine the quantum modification of N -dimensional Schwarzschild spacetime. ∗ [email protected] † [email protected] In recent years, two-dimensional dilaton gravity has earned a great deal of attentio...
متن کاملBlack Holes as Effective Geometries
Gravitational entropy arises in string theory via coarse graining over an underlying space of microstates. In this review we would like to address the question of how the classical black hole geometry itself arises as an effective or approximate description of a pure state, in a closed string theory, which semiclassical observers are unable to distinguish from the “naive” geometry. In cases wit...
متن کاملOn Universality in Black Hole Thermodynamics
The last three years have seen dramatic progress in the understanding of the microscopic description of black holes initiated by the identification of certain dyonic black holes and Bogomol’nyi saturated states in string theory . Such configuration arise as vacua in compactified superstring theory. The microscopic description then requires some understanding of the corresponding world sheet con...
