Classical and quantum properties of black holes
Abstract
A black hole is one of the most mysterious objects in fundamental physics. In this paper, we will review the recent developments in black hole physics, including the observational evidence of black holes through their characteristic photon ring and shadow, black hole thermodynamics and its first law, the holographic implication of black holes to super-fluid dynamics, cosmic censorship conjecture and its test through the lens of a black hole, and the microscopic origin of black-hole entropy in loop quantum gravity.
