The disjointed thermodynamics of rotating black holes with a NUT twist

Abstract: We study the solutions of the Euclidean-signature Einstein equations (gravitational instantons) whose line-element takes the Kerr-bolt form, characterized by three real parameters: a size, a NUT charge, and a spin rate. The exclusion of singularities eliminates most combinations of these parameters, leaving only separated solution-manifolds between which continuous transitions are impossible (The angular velocity divided by the temperature is forced to be a rational multiple of 2π). This "quantization" prevent… Show more
