QFT holography near the horizon of Schwarzschild - like spacetimes

چکیده
Abstract: It is argued that free QFT can be defined on the event horizon of a Schwarzschild-like spacetime and that that theory is unitarily and algebraically equivalent to QFT in the bulk (near the horizon). Under that unitary equivalence the bulk hidden SL(2,R) symmetry found in a previous work becomes manifest on the event horizon, it being induced by a group of horizon diffeomorphisms. The class of generators of that group can be enlarged to include a full Virasoro algebra of fields defined on the event horizon. These generators have a quantum representation in QFT on the event horizon and thus in the bulk.

THERMODYNAMICS AND/OF HORIZONS: A COMPARISON OF SCHWARZSCHILD, RINDLER AND deSITTER SPACETIMES
The notions of temperature, entropy and ‘evaporation’, usually associated with spacetimes with horizons, are analyzed using general approach and the following results, applicable to different spacetimes, are obtained at one go. (i) The concept of temperature associated with the horizon is derived in a unified manner and is shown to arise from purely kinematic considerations. (ii) QFT near any h...
متن کاملSpacetime Embedding Diagrams for Spherically Symmetric Black Holes
We show that it is possible to embed the 1+1 dimensional reduction of certain spherically symmetric black hole spacetimes into 2+1 Minkowski space. The spacetimes of interest (Schwarzschild de-Sitter, Schwarzschild anti de-Sitter, and Reissner-Nordstrom near the outer horizon) represent a class of metrics whose geometries allow for such embeddings. The embedding diagrams have a dynamic characte...
متن کاملString instabilities in black hole spacetimes.
We study the emergence of string instabilities in D dimensional black hole spacetimes (Schwarzschild and Reissner Nordstrøm), and De Sitter space (in static coordinates to allow a better comparison with the black hole case). We solve the first order string fluctuations around the center of mass motion at spatial infinity, near the horizon and at the spacetime singularity. We find that the time ...
متن کاملClassical and Quantum Thermodynamics of horizons in spherically symmetric spacetimes
A general formalism for understanding the thermodynamics of horizons in spherically symmetric spacetimes is developed. The formalism reproduces known results in the case of black hole spacetimes and can handle more general situations like: (i) spacetimes which are not asymptotically flat (like the de Sitter spacetime) and (ii) spacetimes with multiple horizons having different temperatures (lik...
متن کاملNotes for a Quantum Index Theorem
We view DHR superselection sectors with finite statistics as Quantum Field Theory analogs of elliptic operators where KMS functionals play the role of the trace composed with the heat kernel regularization. We extend our local holomorphic dimension formula and prove an analogue of the index theorem in the Quantum Field Theory context. The analytic index is the Jones index, more precisely the mi...
