Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Pennsylvania, 2006.

In this thesis we explore various aspects of string theory and the black hole information paradox. The thesis is divided into two parts. In the first part, we examine black holes in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence and holography. We show how the correspondence is formulated in a time dependent background when multiple vacua exist. We explain how particle production and Hawking radiation is expressed in the dual field theory. We then investigate the rotating BTZ black hole using AdS/CFT. We show how to compute field theory correlation functions in two ways. The first involves integration over the region up to and including the inner (Cauchy) horizon. The second integrates over only the region outside the outer (event) horizon, but over a contour in the complex time plane. We then show that the inner horizon is unstable to generic perturbations and how this instability can be detected in the dual field theory. We conjecture that signatures in the complex time plane might encode information behind the horizon in the dual field theory.

520 $a In the second part of the thesis we turn to the "fuzzball" conjecture where black holes are seen as emergent phenomena that arise from a coarse-graining over many smooth microstates. We present a solution generating technique for general three-charge spacetimes that are candidate microstates for finite area black holes and rings. We show these microstates have the same asymptotic behavior as black holes or black rings, but in the interior are characterized by an intricate geometry of 2-cycles we call spacetime foam.
