چکیده
Vast amounts of entropy are produced in black hole formation, and the amount of entropy stored in supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies is now much greater than the entropy free in the rest of the universe. Either mergers involved in forming supermassive black holes are rare, or the holes must be very efficient at capturing nearly all the entropy generated in the process. We argue that this information can be used to constrain supermassive black hole production, and may eventually provide a check on numerical results for mergers involving black holes.

Vacuum Einstein theory in three spacetime dimensions is locally trivial, but admits many solutions that are globally different, particularly if there is a negative cosmological constant. The classical theory of such locally “anti-de Sitter” spaces is treated in an elementary way, using visualizable models. Among the objects discussed are black holes, spaces with multiple black holes, their hori...

Black hole solutions can be used to shed light on general issues in General Relativity and Quantum Physics. Black–hole hair, entropy and naked singularities are considered here, along with some implications for the inflationary universe scenario.

We treat the model which describes “extreme black holes” moving slowly. We derive an effective lagrangian in the low energy for this model and then investigate a statistical behavior of “extreme black holes” in the finite temperature.

Applying the first and generalised second laws of thermodynamics for a realistic process of near critical black hole formation, we derive an entropy bound, which is identical to Bekenstein’s one for radiation. Relying upon this bound, we derive an absolute minimum mass ∼ 0.04 √ g∗mPl, where g∗ and mPl is the effective degrees of freedom for the initial temparature and the Planck mass, respectiv...
