The canonical ensemble reloaded: the complex-stability of Euclidean quantum gravity for black holes in a box

Abstract We revisit the stability of black hole saddles for the Euclidean path integral describing the canonical partition function Z(β) for gravity inside a spherical reflecting cavity. The boundary condition at the cavity wall couples the transverse-traceless (TT) and pure-trace modes that are tra...
