Abstract

Using a novel numerical spectral method, we have found solutions for large static Randall-Sundrum II (RSII) black holes by perturbing a numerical AdS_5-CFT_4 solution to the Einstein equation with a negative cosmological constant Lambda that is asymptotically conformal to the Schwarzschild metric. We used a numerical spectral method independent of the Ricci-DeTurck-flow method used by Figueras, Lucietti, and Wiseman for a similar numerical solution. We have compared our black-hole solution to the one Figueras and Wiseman have derived by perturbing their numerical AdS_5-CFT_4 solution, showing that our solution agrees closely with theirs. We have also deduced the new results that to first order in 1/(-ΛM^2), the Hawking temperature and entropy of an RSII static black hole have the same values as the Schwarzschild metric with the same mass, but the horizon area is increased by about 4.7/(-Λ).

Complexity study of the Hartle-Hawking state in JT gravity

The Wigner function, in general, takes on negative values, and the amount of negativity in the Wigner function gives an operationally meaningful measure of the complexity of simulating the quantum state on a classical computer. In this paper, we study the growth of Wigner negativity of the Hartle-Hawking state of Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity under time evolution. We work in the gravitational length basis, at genus zero, and at high temperature, $β\ll 1$. Our main analytic result is simple: to leading order in $β$ the state is a Gaussian wavepacket of minimum uncertainty, sitting at rest at the turning point of the Liouville wall. Its Wigner function is therefore positive, and the negativity is $1+δ(β,t)$, where the correction $δ$ is smaller than any power of $β$. We show that $δ$ is an even function of time, so there is no linear growth at $t=0$, and that once the packet has reflected off the wall its leading-order evolution is a Clifford shear, which cannot change the negativity. We also numerically study the time evolution of the Wigner function and its negativity. We observe that $δ$ stays below $10^{-11}$ at $t=0$ and through the reflection, then rises slowly over a few tens of $β/π$, and then approaches a late-time value consistent with $δ_\infty(β) \simeq 0.08\, e^{-4.4/β}$ for $0.25 \le β\le 1$: the lower the temperature, the larger the late-time negativity. The exact survival amplitude $Z(β+it)/Z(β)$ fixes the spread complexity to order $t^4$, and it also fixes the seed-normalised Wigner diagnostic of our earlier work (arXiv:2607.04065, arXiv:2607.17346). We take this as evidence that the length basis is ideally suited for a dual, semi-classical description of the dynamics at genus zero. Beyond genus zero the length basis is overcomplete, and we make no statement about finite $e^{S_0}$.

The Komar charges of type II supergravity and supersymmetric localization

We compute the on-shell closed, generalized Komar charges associated to an arbitrary Killing vector of the two 10-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ supergravity theories which are the low-energy effective field theories of the type~IIA and IIB superstrings. We study different rewritings of this charge in terms of Page charges and forms with special properties that are used in the derivation of thermodynamical relations in black $p$-brane spacetimes. The, we show that, when the Killing vector is the supersymmetric Killing vector built as a bilinear of a Killing spinor, the momentum maps of the different fields of the theory are

Fermionic Spectral Functions in a Two-Current Gubser-Rocha Model with Axion Momentum Relaxation

We investigate fermionic spectral functions in a two-current Gubser-Rocha background with linear-axion momentum relaxation. Serving as a comparison channel, the dipole coupling $p_1$ is found to produce a soft asymmetric reconstruction without opening a clean hard Mott gap. Our main analysis then focuses on two axion-dependent non-minimal couplings modulated by current mixing. The $p_2$ tensor channel suppresses the zero-energy Fermi peak and shifts the dominant spectral weight to finite frequencies, resulting in a flat-bottom reconstruction. In contrast, the $p_3$ vector channel creates a strong spectral asymmetry in momentum space, generating open, Fermi-arc-like segments. Varying the momentum-relaxation strength $β/μ$ and the doping parameter $χ$ reveals a channel-dependent response to the two-current background. Increasing $β/μ$ generally broadens the $p_2$ response, whereas the one-sided $p_3$ feature varies non-monotonically under changes of the background parameters. These results clarify how current mixing, axion-induced momentum relaxation, and non-minimal fermion couplings jointly reshape holographic fermionic excitations. These results clarify how current mixing, axion-induced momentum relaxation, and non-minimal fermion couplings jointly reshape holographic fermionic excitations.
