A 5D black hole(M 5) is investigated in the type IIB superstring theory com-pactified on S 1 ×T 4. This corresponds to AdS 3 ×S 3 ×T 4 in the near horizon with asymptotically flat space. Here the harmonic gauge is introduced to decouple the mixing between the dilaton and others. On the other hand we obtain the BTZ balck hole(AdS 3 ×S 3 ×T 4) as the non-dilatonic solution. We calculate the greyb...

We investigate solutions of new massive gravity with two commuting Killing vectors, one of which is null, with a special emphasis on black hole solutions. Besides extreme BTZ black holes and, for a special value of the coupling constant, massless null warped black holes, we also obtain for a critical coupling a family of massive “log” black holes. These are asymptotic to the extreme BTZ black h...

We consider the problem of a self-interacting scalar field nonminimally coupled to the three-dimensional BTZ metric such that its energymomentum tensor evaluated on the BTZ metric vanishes. We prove that this system is equivalent to a self-dual system composed by a set of two first-order equations. The self-dual point is achieved by fixing one of the coupling constant of the potential in terms ...

We consider the behaviour of a quantum scalar field on three-dimensional Euclidean backgrounds: Anti-de Sitter space, the regular BTZ black hole instanton and the BTZ instanton with a conical singularity at the horizon. The corresponding heat kernel and effective action are calculated explicitly for both rotating and non-rotating holes. The quantum entropy of the BTZ black hole is calculated by...

High systemic levels of type-I Interferons (IFN) support autoimmunity, in part through the induction of inflammatory dendritic cells (DC). The purpose of this study was to compare ONX 0914, a next-generation selective immunoprotea-some inhibitor, to Bortezomib (BTZ), the first registered general proteasome inhibitor, in its ability to block differentiation of inflammatory DC from mono-cytes, in...

Purpose: To investigate the effect of resveratrol (RSV) on bortezomib (BTZ)-resistant multiple myeloma (MM) cells, and to elucidate underlying mechanism action.
 Methods: H929 cell lines were exposed BTZ for 8 months establish BTZ-resistant MM model. Cell proliferation was determined by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. Apoptosis measured using annex...

String theory can accommodate black holes with the black hole parameters related to string moduli. It is a well known but remarkable feature that the near horizon geometry of a large class of black holes arising from string theory contains a BTZ part. A mathematical theorem (Sullivan’s Theorem) relates the three dimensional geometry of the BTZ metric to the conformal structures of a two dimensi...

In the context of AdS3/CFT2, we address spacetimes with a certain sort of internal infinity as typified by the extreme BTZ black hole. The internal infinity is a null circle lying at the end of the black hole’s infinite throat. We argue that such spacetimes may be described by a product CFT of the form CFTL⊗CFTR, where CFTR is associated with the asymptotically AdS boundary while CFTL is associ...
