abstract

The effective one-loop action for general dilaton theories with arbitrary dilaton-dependent measure and nonminimal coupling to scalar matter is computed. As an application we determine the Hawking flux to infinity from black holes in d-dimensions. We resolve the recently resurrected problem of an apparent negative flux for nonminimally coupled scalars: For any $D \geq 4$ Black Hole the complete flux turns out to be precisely the one of minimal coupling. This result is obtained from a Christensen-Fulling type argument involving the (non-)conservation of energy-momentum. It is compared with approaches using the effective action.

  1. Quantum fate of the Choptuik naked singularity

    gr-qc 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Quantum backreaction generates horizons that cloak the Choptuik naked singularity, reducing its predictability violation to the standard black hole evaporation problem.

  2. The Fate of Nucleated Black Holes in de Sitter Quantum Gravity

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Nucleated maximal-mass black holes in de Sitter space undergo thermal Hawking evaporation in smooth quantum states and return fully to the empty de Sitter vacuum.

  3. Test of quantum atmosphere in the dimensionally reduced Schwarzschild black hole

    gr-qc 2019-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In a dimensionally reduced Schwarzschild black hole, the temperature carried by outgoing Hawking modes vanishes at the horizon, peaks near 1.43 to 1.5 r_h, and approaches the Hawking temperature at infinity.
