Excursions beyond the horizon: Black hole singularities in Yang-Mills theories (I)
read the original abstract
We study black hole singularities in the AdS/CFT correspondence. These singularities show up in CFT in the behavior of finite-temperature correlation functions. We first establish a direct relation between space-like geodesics in the bulk and momentum space Wightman functions of CFT operators of large dimensions. This allows us to probe the regions inside the horizon and near the singularity using the CFT. Information about the black hole singularity is encoded in the exponential falloff of finite-temperature correlators at large imaginary frequency. We construct new gauge invariant observables whose divergences reflect the presence of the singularity. We also find a UV/UV connection that governs physics inside the horizon. Additionally, we comment on the possible resolution of the singularity.

Holographic Banners
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.

Inner Horizon Saddles and a Spectral KSW Criterion
Inner horizon saddles supply the semiclassical correction -exp(A_inner/4G) to near-extremal black-hole entropy and motivate a spectral KSW criterion for well-defined one-loop effects around complex gravitational saddles.

$O(d,d)$ symmetric gravity and finite coupling holography
In O(d,d) symmetric gravity with curvature corrections, black brane singularities persist with altered Kasner exponents, while dilaton effects enable dynamic generation of negative cosmological constants at weak coupling.

Bouncing singularities and thermal correlators on line defects
Retarded correlators of displacement operators on line defects in holographic thermal CFTs exhibit bouncing singularities that match between interior-sensitive WKB and boundary-only OPE analyses.

Complex Geodesics in the Nariai Geometry
Two-point functions in Nariai geometry are sums over complex geodesics whose phases must be retained to eliminate artificial singularities.

$O(d,d)$ symmetric gravity and finite coupling holography
In O(d,d) symmetric gravity with curvature corrections, black brane singularities are not resolved but approach with altered Kasner exponents, while a dilaton generates negative cosmological constants at small coupling.

Quasinormal modes of black holes and black branes
Quasinormal modes are eigenmodes of dissipative gravitational systems whose spectra encode near-equilibrium transport coefficients in dual quantum field theories and enable tests of general relativity through gravitat...
