Abstract Cosmological Black Holes as Models of Cosmological Inhomogeneities
, 2006
"... Since cosmological black holes modify the density and pressure of the surrounding universe, and introduce heat conduction, they produce simple models of cosmologi-cal inhomogeneities that can be used to study the eect of inhomogeneities on the universe's expansion. In this thesis, new cosmologi ..."

A closed-form solution for options with stochastic volatility with applications to bond and currency options
- Review of Financial Studies
, 1993
"... I use a new technique to derive a closed-form solution for the price of a European call option on an asset with stochastic volatility. The model allows arbitrary correlation between volatility and spotasset returns. I introduce stochastic interest rates and show how to apply the model to bond option ..."

Quantum Gravity
, 2004
"... We describe the basic assumptions and key results of loop quantum gravity, which is a background independent approach to quantum gravity. The emphasis is on the basic physical principles and how one deduces predictions from them, at a level suitable for physicists in other areas such as string theor ..."

integral quantizations, coupling to matter, extensions to supergravity and higher dimensional theories, as well as applications to black holes, cosmology and Plank scale phenomenology. We describe the near term prospects for observational tests of quantum theories of gravity and the expectations that loop
Breaking an Abelian gauge symmetry near a black hole horizon
, 2008
"... I argue that coupling the Abelian Higgs model to gravity plus a negative cosmological constant leads to black holes which spontaneously break the gauge invariance via a charged scalar condensate slightly outside their horizon. This suggests that black holes can superconduct. ..."

Cosmological Multi-Black Hole Solutions ⋆
, 1992
"... We present simple, analytic solutions to the Einstein-Maxwell equation, which describe an arbitrary number of charged black holes in a spacetime with positive cosmological constant Λ. In the limit Λ = 0, these solutions reduce to the well known Majumdar-Papapetrou (MP) solutions. Like the MP solutio ..."

Shock-wave cosmology inside a black hole
"... We construct a class of global exact solutions of the Einstein equations that extend the Oppeheimer-Snyder (OS) model to the case of non-zero pressure, inside the Black Hole, by incorporating a shock wave at the leading edge of the expansion of the galaxies, arbitrarily far beyond the Hubble length ..."

Cosmological Black Holes
, 2001
"... In this letter we propose the existence of low density black holes and discuss its compatibility with the cosmological observations. The origin of these black holes can be traced back to the collapse of long wavelength cosmological perturbations during the matter dominated era, when the densities ar ..."

Corrections to Macroscopic Supersymmetric Black-Hole Entropy
, 1998
"... We determine the corrections to the entropy of extremal black holes arising from terms quadratic in the Riemann tensor in N = 2; D = 4 supergravity theories. We follow Wald's proposal to modify the Bekenstein-Hawking area law. The new entropy formula, whose value only depends on the electric/ma ..."

A new cosmological scenario in string theory
- REV. D
, 2002
"... We consider new cosmological solutions with a collapsing, an intermediate and an expanding phase. The boundary between the expanding (collapsing) phase and the intermediate phase is seen by comoving observers as a cosmological past (future) horizon. The solutions are naturally embedded in string and ..."
