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. 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.

  3. 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.
