• Abstract

  In this project, we propose the investigation of non-stationary black holes, characterized by their trapping horizons. This formalism is particularly useful in the analysis of dynamical spacetimes, and at the same time admits a thermodynamic description associated to the horizons. Two physical scenarios to be considered are: the description of black holes in cosmological environments; and…

• Abstract

  In this project we propose a thermodynamic characterization of the so-called fluid/gravity correspondences, using the generalized thermodynamics of trapping horizons. The key elements of this plan are the thermodynamics proposed by Hayward and others; and the fluid/gravity correspondences, obtained through the hydrodynamic limit of the anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory correspondences…

• Abstract

  In this project we propose the investigation of vacuum solution extensions in general relativity. Deformations of spherical, cylindrical and axially symmetric solutions in the context of general relativity will be explored, aiming applications in brane world models and in the context of AdS/CFT correspondence. The new obtained solutions will be characterized by their perturbative, thermod…

• Abstract

  In this project we propose a thermodynamical characterization of the so-called holographic conductors, through the generalized thermodynamicspresented by Hayward et al. The holographic superconductivity is based on gravitational models applied to the description of superconductor materials. The key component in this program is the anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory correspondence (AdS/…

• Abstract

  In this project, correspondences between pertubative models in curved spacetimes and appropriate algebraic duals will be investigated. The geometries of interest include black hole solutions in brane world scenarios. Following several proposals in the literature, we aim to associate the near horizon scalar dynamics to an appropriate algebraic structure related with the invariance of the s…

• Abstract

  In this project we aim to use the techniques of black holes physics, as black holes thermodynamics, stability and quasinormal modes analysis, applied to recent developments, namely solutions of Horava-Lifshitz gravity and generalizations of McVittie spacetimes. The final objective is to use such results to probe the properties of the dual quantum field theories to those spacetimes, accord…

• Abstract

  We present in this project the research plan to be developed in collaboration with the Relativity and Gravitation group at the Instituto de Física Fundamental (part of the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas, Spain), headed by prof. Pedro F. Gonzalez Diaz. This group has done proeminent work where the usual termodynamical proprieties of black holes were extended to wormholes. …
