Black holes on thick branes

Open access
Emparan, Roberto, Gregory, Ruth, Santos, Caroline·2001·Physical Review D

Abstract

The interplay between topological defects (branes) and black holes has been a subject of recent study, motivated in part by interest in brane-world scenarios. In this paper we analyze in detail the description of a black hole bound to a domain wall (a two-brane in four dimensions), for which an exact description in the limit of zero wall thickness has been given recently. We show how to smooth this singular solution with a thick domain wall. We also show that charged extremal black holes of a size (roughly) smaller than the brane thickness expel the wall, thereby extending the phenomenon of flux expulsion. Finally, we analyze the process of black hole nucleation on a domain wall, and argue that it is preferred over a previously studied mechanism of black hole nucleation away from the wall.

Written from the paper’s full text.

TL;DR

The paper constructs and analyzes a black hole bound to a thick domain wall, showing how the singular thin-wall solution can be smoothed by a topological wall and how thermodynamics favors the black hole remaining on the wall. It also argues that sufficiently small extremal black holes expel the wall and that black-hole nucleation on the wall is preferred over a previously studied nucleation away from the wall.

Key findings

  • The thin wall–black-hole metric is built from the C-metric and Israel junction conditions; the resulting spacetime describes two oppositely charged black holes at antipodal points of a spherical domain wall, with wall tension \(\sigma = A/(2\pi G)\).
  • Thermodynamics gives \(S = 4\pi G M^2 [1 + 5\pi G^2 \sigma M + O(G^4 M^2 \sigma^2)]\), and \(S > S_0 = 4\pi G M^2\) for all allowed masses, so it is entropically favored for the black hole to stick to the wall.
  • For extremal black holes, flux expulsion occurs: if \(M^2 < 1/2\), the only possible horizon solution is \(X \equiv 0\), i.e. the wall is expelled; if \(M > 4/\pi\), no such expelling solution can exist. For the C-metric, a weaker bound \(A|\xi_2| > 1\) is derived.
  • Black-hole nucleation on the wall (“hole-punch”) has \(I - I_0 \simeq M\sigma\), which is positive and exponentially suppressed, but the black-hole mass \(M\) can be varied independently of wall tension. This is argued to be preferred over the prior mechanism, where \(M = (6\sqrt{3}\pi\sigma)^{-1}\) is fixed and large.

Methods

  • Analytical general-relativistic and field-theoretic study: uses the C-metric, Israel junction conditions, thin-wall approximation, Reissner-Nordström backgrounds, and a linearized gravitational back-reaction calculation in \(\epsilon = 3A/2\).
  • Constructs a Euclidean instanton for black-hole nucleation on the wall and computes the action difference \(I - I_0\), comparing it to previously studied nucleation inside the wall.
  • No observational or numerical sample is used; the work is analytic, with reference to prior numerical work on a domain wall through a Schwarzschild black hole.

Limitations

  • The paper states that the bulk cosmological constant is set to \(\Lambda = 0\) for simplicity, though it says sections III–V can be extended to non-zero \(\Lambda\), and global structure, thermodynamics, and instantons extend qualitatively to de Sitter branes.
  • The paper states that the five-dimensional analogue is obstructed by the lack of an explicit C-metric analogue, so the five-dimensional wall–black-hole metric remains unknown; nucleation in five dimensions cannot be conclusively analyzed.
  • The text makes evident that the expulsion bound \(M^2 < 1/2\) is weak and the true limit likely higher, requiring numerical work; it also notes that the semiclassical approximation breaks down when the black-hole mass reaches the Planck scale.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-10, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).

A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-10 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
