In this paper, we consider a quantum scalar field propagating on the Reissner-Nordström
black hole spacetime. We compute the renormalized stress-energy tensor for the field in the …

In this paper, we describe an extremely efficient method for computing the renormalized
stress-energy tensor of a quantum scalar field in spherically symmetric black hole …

We compute the vacuum polarization for a massless, conformally coupled scalar field on the
covering space of global, four-dimensional, anti-de Sitter space-time. Since anti-de Sitter …

We consider the response of an Unruh-DeWitt detector near an extremal charged black
hole, modeling the near-horizon region of this extremal spacetime by the Bertotti-Robinson …

We compute the renormalized vacuum polarization for a massless, conformally coupled
scalar field on asymptotically anti–de Sitter black hole backgrounds. Mixed (Robin) …

Abstract Standard General Relativity assumes that, in the absence of classical matter
sources, spacetime is empty. This chapter considers and analyses the new behaviours of …

We study the canonical quantization of a massive scalar field on a five dimensional, rotating
black hole space-time. We focus on the case where the space-time is asymptotically anti-de …

We provide a mode-sum prescription to directly compute the renormalized stress-energy
tensor (RSET) for scalar fields in the Boulware vacuum. The method generalizes the recently …

The full computation of the renormalized expectation values⟨ Φ 2⟩ ren and⟨ T^ μ ν⟩ ren in
four-dimensional (4D) black hole interiors has been a long-standing challenge, which has …

We consider a quantum scalar field on the classical background of an asymptotically anti–de
Sitter black hole and the backreaction the field's stress-energy tensor induces on the black …
