Unitary evolution of perturbations of a two-dimensional black hole∗
نویسنده
چکیده
We discuss massive scalar perturbations of a two-dimensional dilaton black hole. We employ a Pauli-Villars regularization scheme to calculate the effect of the scalar perturbation on the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy. By concentrating on the dynamics of the scalar field near the horizon, we argue that quantum effects alter the effective potential. We calculate the two-point function explicitly and show that it exhibits Poincaré recurrences. Research supported in part by the DoE under grant DE-FG05-91ER40627. [email protected]

Black Hole Evolution
Black hole formation and evaporation is studied in the semiclassical approximation in simple 1+1-dimensional models, with emphasis on issues related to Hawking's information paradox. Exact semiclassical solutions are described and questions of boundary conditions and vacuum stability are discussed. The validity of the semiclassical approximation has been called into question in the context of t...
متن کاملUnitarity issue in BTZ black holes
We study the wave equation for a massive scalar in three-dimensional AdS-black hole spacetimes to understand the unitarity issues in a semiclassical way. Here we introduce four interesting spacetimes: the non-rotating BTZ black hole (NBTZ), pure AdS spacetime (PADS), massless BTZ black hole (MBTZ), and extremal BTZ black hole (EBTZ). Our method is based on the potential analysis and solving the...
متن کاملA Unitary S-matrix for 2D Black Hole Formation and Evaporation
We study the black hole information paradox in the context of a two-dimensional toy model given by dilaton gravity coupled toN massless scalar fields. After making the model well-defined by imposing reflecting boundary conditions at a critical value of the dilaton field, we quantize the theory and derive the quantum S-matrix for the case that N=24. This S-matrix is unitary by construction, and ...
متن کاملLate-Time Dynamics of Scalar Fields on Rotating Black Hole Backgrounds
The purpose of the studies presented in this paper is to point out the need for further work towards a definitive answer to the following question: How do perturbations of a rotating black hole get radiated away? Using the Teukolsky formalism [1], we can search for an answer to that question by studying the evolution of a complex spin-weighted wavefunction that is defined in terms of curvature ...
متن کاملLinear perturbations of black holes : stability , quasi - normal modes and tails
Black holes have their proper oscillations, which are called the quasi-normal modes. The proper oscillations of astrophysical black holes can be observed in the nearest future with the help of gravitational wave detectors. Quasi-normal modes are also very important in the context of testing of the stability of black objects, the anti-de Sitter/Conformal Field Theory (AdS/CFT) correspondence and...
