A New Black Hole Solution in Conformal Dilaton Gravity on a Warped Spacetime

Abstract

An exact time-dependent solution of a black hole is found in a conformally invariant gravity model on a warped Randall-Sundrum spacetime, by writing the metric . Here, represents the “un-physical” spacetime and ω the dilaton field, which will be treated on equal footing as any renormalizable scalar field. In the case of a five-dimensional warped spacetime, we thereafter write . The dilaton field can be used to describe the different notion the in-going and outside observers have of the Hawking radiation by using different conformal gauge freedom. The disagreement about the interior of the black hole is explained by the antipodal map of points on the horizon. The free parameters of the solution can be chosen in such a way that is singular-free and topologically regular, even for ω → 0 . It is remarkable that the 5D and 4D effective field equations for the metric components and dilaton fields can be written in general dimension n = 4,5. From the exact energy-momentum tensor in Eddington-Finkelstein coordinates, we are able to determine the gravitational wave contribution in the process of evaporation of the black hole. It is conjectured that, in context of quantization procedures in the vicinity of the horizon, unitarity problems only occur in the bulk at large extra-dimension scale. The subtraction point in an effective theory will be in the UV only in the bulk, because the use of a large extra dimension results in a fundamental Planck scale comparable with the electroweak scale.
