On area and entropy of a black hole

We consider a model of a black hole consisting of a number of elementary components. Examples of such models occur in the Ashtekar's approach to canonical Quantum Gravity and in M-theory. We show that treating the elementary components as completely distinguishable leads to the area law for the black hole entropy. Contrary to previous results, we show that no Bose condensation occurs, the area has big local fluctuations and that in the framework of canonical Quantum Gravity the area of the black hole horizon is equidistantly quantized.

Tunnelling Spectroscopy of Localized States near the Quantum Hall Edge

In the paper we dscuss experimental results of M. Grayson et al. on tunneling $I$-$V$ characteristics of the quantum Hall edge. We suggest a two step tunneling mechanism involving localized electron states near the edge, which might account for discrepancy between the experimental data and the predictions of the chiral Luttinger liquid theory of the quantum Hall edge.
