Perturbations of black holes, initially considered in the context of possible observations of
astrophysical effects, have been studied for the past 10 years in string theory, brane-world …

We test the stability of various wormholes and black holes supported by a scalar field with
a<? format?> negative kinetic term. The general axial perturbations and the monopole type …

The holographic gauge/gravity duality provides an explicit reduction of quantum field theory
(QFT) calculations in the semiclassical large-N limit to sets of “gravitational” differential …

A bstract We explore a new class of general properties of thermal holographic Green's
functions that can be deduced from the near-horizon behaviour of classical perturbations in …

A bstract Photon spheres are the characteristic of general black holes, thus are a suitable
touchstone for the emergence of gravitational spacetime in the AdS/CFT correspondence …

We provide a framework for calculating holographic Green's functions from general bilinear
actions and fields obeying coupled differential equations in the bulk. The matrix-valued …

The linear growth of operators in local quantum systems leads to an effective light cone even
if the system is nonrelativistic. We show that the consistency of diffusive transport with this …

We revisit the problem of calculating the quasinormal modes of spin 0, 1/2, 1, 3/2, 2, and
spin 5/2 fields in the asymptotically flat Schwarzschild black hole spacetime. Our aim is to …

We investigate the scalar, gravitational, and electromagnetic quasinormal mode spectra of
Schwarzschild anti–de Sitter black holes using the numerical continued fraction method. The …
