A scalar field condensation instability of rotating Anti-de Sitter black holes

A scalar field condensation instability of rotating Anti-de Sitter black holes
Near-extreme Reissner-Nordström-anti-de Sitter black holes are unstable against the condensation of an uncharged scalar field with mass close to the Breitenlöhner-Freedman bound. It is shown that a similar instability afflicts near-extreme large rotating AdS black holes, and near-extreme hyperbolic Schwarzschild-AdS black holes. The resulting nonlinear hairy black hole solutions are determined numerically. Some stability results for (possibly charged) scalar fields in black hole backgrounds are proved. For most of the extreme black holes we consider, these demonstrate stability if the “effective mass” respects the near-horizon BF bound. Small spherical Reissner-Nordström-AdS black holes are an interesting exception to this result.

Abstract

Near-extreme Reissner-Nordström-anti-de Sitter black holes are unstable against the condensation of an uncharged scalar field with mass close to the Breitenlöhner-Freedman bound. It is shown that a similar instability afflicts near-extreme large rotating AdS black holes, and near-extreme hyperbolic Schwarzschild-AdS black holes. The resulting nonlinear hairy black hole solutions are determined numerically. Some stability results for (possibly charged) scalar fields in black hole backgrounds are proved. For most of the extreme black holes we consider, these demonstrate stability if the “effective mass” respects the near-horizon BF bound. Small spherical Reissner-Nordström-AdS black holes are an interesting exception to this result.
