We first review the interpretation of world sheet defects as D branes described by a critical theory in 11 dimensions, that we interpret as M theory. We then show that D-brane recoil induces dynamically an anti-de Sitter (AdS) space–time background, with criticality restored by a twelfth timelike dimension described by a Liouville field. Local physics in the bulk of this AdS11 may be described by an Osp (1|32, R) ⊗ Osp (1|32, R) topological gauge theory (TGT), with nonlocal boundary states in doubleton representations. We draw analogies with structures previously exhibited in two-dimensional black hole models. Wilson loops of "matter" in the TGT may be described by an effective string action, and defect condensation may yield string tension and cause a space–time metric to appear.

A toy model based upon the q-deformation description for studying the radiation spectrum of black hole is proposed. The starting point is to make an attempt to consider the space–time noncommutativity in the vicinity of black hole horizon. We use a trick that all the space–time noncommutative effects are ascribed to the modification of the behavior of the radiation field of black hole and a kind of q-deformed degrees of freedom are postulated to mimic the radiation particles that live on the noncommutative space–time, meanwhile the background metric is preserved as usual. We calculate the radiation spectrum of Schwarzschild black hole in this framework. The new distribution deviates from the standard thermal spectrum evidently. The result indicates that some correlation effect will be introduced to the system if the noncommutativity is taken into account. In addition, an infrared cutoff of the spectrum is the prediction of the model.

Christodoulou and Rovelli have shown that the interior volume of a Schwarzschild black hole grows linearly with time. The entropy of a scalar field in this interior volume of a Schwarzschild black hole has been calculated and shown to increase linearly with the advanced time too. In this paper, considering Hawking radiation from a d-dimensional charged black hole, we investigate the proportional relation between the entropy of the scalar field in the interior volume and the Bekenstein–Hawking entropy using the method of our previous work. We also derive this proportionality relation using Hamiltonian analysis and find a consistent result. We then investigate the proportionality coefficient with respect to d and find that it gradually decreases as the dimension of space–time increases.

By considering the product of the usual four-dimensional space–time with two dimensional space of constant curvature, an interesting black hole solution has recently been found for Einstein–Gauss–Bonnet gravity. It turns out that this as well as all others could easily be made to radiate Vaidya null dust. However, there exists no Kerr analog in this setting. To get the physical feel of the four-dimensional black hole space–times, we study asymptotic behavior of stresses at the two ends, r → 0 and r → ∞.

We discuss the space-time interpretation of bosonic string theories, which involve d scalar fields coupled to gravity in two dimensions, with a proper quantization of the world-sheet metric. We show that for d>25, the theory cannot describe string modes consistently coupled to each other. For d=25 this is possible; however, in this case the Liouville mode acts as an extra timelike variable and one really has a string moving in 26-dimensional space-time with a Lorentzian signature. By analyzing such a string theory in background fields, we show that the d=25 theory possesses the full 26-dimensional general covariance.

A one-loop correction of the quasilocal energy in the Schwarzschild background, with flat space as a reference metric, is performed by means of a variational procedure in the Hamiltonian framework. We examine the graviton sector in momentum space, in the lowest possible state. An application to the black hole pair creation via the Casimir energy is presented. Implications on the foamlike scenario are discussed.
