Some aspects of virtual black holes

Abstract: We first consider consistently third quantize modified gravity. We then analyze certain aspects of virtual black holes in this third quantized modified gravity. We see how a statistical mechanical origin for the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy naturally arises in this model. Furthermore, the area and hence the entropy of a real macroscopic black hole is quantized in this model. Virtual black holes cause a loss of quantum coher ence, which gives an intrinsic entropy to all physical systems that can be used to define… Show more

“…However, it will be difficult to do it in de Sitter spacetime as there are IR divergences for the ghosts in anti-de Sitter spacetime [47]- [49]. It will also be intresting to analyse the third quantization [50]- [52] of gravity using this BRST charge in analogy with string field theory [53]- [56].…”

“…the spacetime is made from discrete bubbles of geometry. This result is obtained without assumptions outside GR and quantum theory.Virtual black holes were also studied in third quantised formalism of canonical quantum gravity [6], in dilatorn gravity theories ? ?, and in other alternative theories as in generalised uncertainty principle and their phenomenological implications in proton decay [2] and higher spin theories from Teukolsky equations [15].…”
