Black hole surface gravity in doubly special relativity geometries (2109.12336v1)

Abstract: In a quantum gravity theory, spacetime at mesoscopic scales can acquire a novel structure very different from the classical concept of general relativity. A way to effectively characterize the quantum nature of spacetime is through a momentum dependent space-time metric. There is a vast literature showing that this geometry is related to deformed relativistic kinematics, which is precisely a way to capture residual effects of a quantum gravity theory. In this work, we study the notion of surface gravity in a momentum dependent Schwarzschild black hole geometry. We show that using the two main notions of surface gravity in general relativity we obtain a momentum independent result. However, there are several definitions of surface gravity, all of them equivalent in general relativity when there is a Killing horizon. We show that in our scheme, despite the persistence of a Killing horizon, these alternative notions only agree in a very particular momentum basis, obtained in a previous work, so further supporting its physical relevance.
