Rayleigh and Solberg criteria reversal near black holes: the optical geometry explanation
نویسنده
چکیده
The familiar Newtonian version of the Rayleigh criterion demands that for dynamical stability the specific angular momentum should increase with the increasing circumferential radius of circular trajectories of matter. However, sufficiently close to a black hole the Rayleigh criterion reverses: in stable fluids, the angular momentum must decrease with the increasing circumferential radius. The geometrical reason for this reversal is that the space is so very strongly warped that it turns inside-out.

The Entropy Function for the Black Holes of Nariai Class
Based on the fact that the near horizon geometry of the extremal Schwarzschild-de Sitter black holes is Nariai geometry, we define the black holes of Nariai class as the configuration whose near-horizon geometry is factorized as two dimensional de Sitter space-time and some compact topology, that is Nariai geometry. We extend the entropy function formalism to the case of the black holes of Nari...
متن کاملBTZ black holes and the near-horizon geometry of higher-dimensional black holes
We investigate the connection between the BTZ black holes and the near-horizon geometry of higher-dimensional black holes. Under mild conditions, we show that (i) if a black hole has a global structure of the Reissner-Nordstrom black hole type, its near-horizon geometry is AdS2 times a sphere, and further (ii) if such a black hole is obtained from a boosted black string by dimensional reduction...
متن کاملBlack Hole Horizons and the Thermodynamics of Strings *
We review the classical thermodynamics and the greybody factors of general (rotating) non-extreme black holes and discuss universal features of their near-horizon geometry. We motivate a microscopic interpretation of general black holes that relates the thermodynamics of an effective string theory to the geometry of the black hole in the vicinity of both the outer and the inner event horizons. ...
متن کاملDilaton black holes near the horizon.
Generic U(1) 4-d black holes with unbroken N = 1 supersymmetry are shown to tend to a Robinson-Bertotti type geometry with a linear dilaton and doubling of unbroken supersymmetries near the horizon. Purely magnetic dilatonic black holes, which have unbroken N = 2 supersymmetry, behave near the horizon as a 2-d linear dilaton vacuum ⊗S2. This geometry is invariant under 8 supersymmetries, i.e. h...
متن کاملEntropy function and attractors for AdS black holes
We apply Sen’s entropy formalism to the study of the near horizon geometry and the entropy of asymptotically AdS black holes in gauged supergravities. In particular, we consider non-supersymmetric electrically charged black holes with AdS2 × S horizons in U(1) and U(1) gauged supergravities in d = 4 and d = 5 dimensions, respectively. We study several cases including static/rotating, BPS and no...
