The fuzzball proposal for black holes: an elementary review
نویسنده
چکیده
We give an elementary review of black holes in string theory. We discuss BPS holes, the microscopic computation of entropy and the ‘fuzzball’ picture of the black hole interior suggested by microstates of the 2-charge system. Lecture given at the RTN workshop ‘The quantum structure of space-time and the geometric nature of fundamental interactions’, in Crete, Greece (September 2004).

The fuzzball proposal for black holes
The fuzzball proposal states that associated with a black hole of entropy S there are expS horizon-free non-singular solutions that asymptotically look like the black hole but generically differ from the black hole up to the horizon scale. These solutions, the fuzzballs, are considered to be the black hole microstates while the original black hole represents the average description of the syste...
متن کاملCoarse-graining of bubbling geometries and fuzzball conjecture
We compute black hole entropies and the “horizon” sizes from the fuzzball conjecture in the LLM bubbling geometries, based on coarse-graining on the gravity side. The differences of black hole microstates cannot be seen by classical observations. Conversely, by counting the possible deformations of the geometry which are not classically detectable, we can calculate the entropy. We carry out thi...

متن کاملFuzzball solutions for black holes and D1-brane-D5-brane microstates.
We revisit the relation between fuzzball solutions and D1-brane-D5-brane microstates. A consequence of the fact that the R ground states (in the usual basis) are eigenstates of the R charge is that only neutral operators can have nonvanishing expectation values on these states. We compute the holographic 1-point functions of the fuzzball solutions and find that charged chiral primaries have non...
متن کاملTunneling into fuzzball states
String theory suggests that black hole microstates are quantum, horizon sized ‘fuzzballs’, rather than smooth geometries with horizon. Radiation from fuzzballs can carry information and does not lead to information loss. But if we let a shell of matter collapse then it creates a horizon, and it seems that subsequent radiation will lead to information loss. We argue that the resolution to this p...
