We obtain exact expressions for the quasi-normal modes of various spin for the BTZ black hole. These modes determine the relaxation time of black hole perturbations. Exact agreement is found between the quasi-normal frequencies and the location of the poles of the retarded correlation function of the corresponding perturbations in the dual conformal field theory. This then provides a new quantitative test of the AdS/CFT correspondence.

  1. Holographic Banners

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 8.0

    Holographic banners are four-argument on-shell actions that map thermofield double boundary states to future interior semiclassical states and yield BKL mixing timescales in AdS black holes.

  2. The Effects of Near-AdS$_2$ Backreaction on Matter Fields

    hep-th 2025-09 conditional novelty 7.0

    Backreaction of near-AdS2 geometry gives a temperature correction to scalar correlators that for massive fields needs metric backreaction, matches BTZ, and corrects the standard prescription.

  3. Hawking radiation from black holes in 2+1 dimensions

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Black hole horizons in 2+1D are composed of quantized length quanta 8π ℓ_P n, producing entropy near the Bekenstein-Hawking value and a local Hawking spectrum via a length ensemble.

  4. Holographic D-brane constructions with dynamical gauge fields

    hep-th 2025-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Equips bottom-up holographic D-brane models with dynamical boundary gauge fields and shows that quasinormal mode dispersion relations in equilibrium and nonequilibrium states match hydrodynamics with dynamical U(1) symmetry.

  5. Hawking radiation from black holes in 2+1 dimensions

    gr-qc 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    In 2+1 dimensions, black hole horizons are quantized into lengths 8π ℓ_P n, from which a length ensemble directly yields the Hawking blackbody spectrum with Tolman-modified temperature.
