It has been suggested in recent work that the Page curve of Hawking radiation can be recovered using computations in semi-classical gravity provided one allows for islands in the gravity region of quantum systems coupled to gravity. The explicit computations so far have been restricted to black holes in two-dimensional Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity. In this note, we numerically construct a five-dimensional asymptotically AdS geometry whose boundary realizes a four-dimensional Hartle-Hawking state on an eternal AdS black hole in equilibrium with a bath. We also numerically find two types of extremal surfaces: ones that correspond to having or not having an island. The version of the information paradox involving the eternal black hole exists in this setup, and it is avoided by the presence of islands. Thus, recent computations exhibiting islands in two-dimensional gravity generalize to higher dimensions as well.

It is shown that there is a universal gravitational memory effect measurable by inertial detectors in even spacetime dimensions $dgeq 4$. The effect falls off at large radius $r$ as $r^{3-d}$. Moreover this memory effect sits at one corner of an infr ared triangle with the other two corners occupied by Weinbergs soft graviton theorem and infinite-dimensional asymptotic symmetries.

In this paper, we revisit the question of identifying Soft Graviton theorem in higher (even) dimensions with Ward identities associated with Asymptotic symmetries. Building on the prior work of cite{strominger}, we compute, from first principles, the (asymptotic) charge associated to Supertranslation symmetry in higher even dimensions and show that (i) these charges are non-trivial, finite and (ii) the corresponding Ward identities are indeed the soft graviton theorems.
Gravitational backgrounds in d+2 dimensions have been proposed as holographic duals to Lifshitz-like theories describing critical phenomena in d+1 dimensions with critical exponent zgeq 1. We numerically explore a dilaton-Einstein-Maxwell model admit ting such backgrounds as solutions. Such backgrounds are characterized by a temperature T and chemical potential mu, and we find how to embed these solutions into AdS for a range of values of z and d. We find no thermal instability going from the (Tllmu) to the (Tggmu) regimes, regardless of the dimension, and find that the solutions smoothly interpolate between the Lifshitz-like behaviour and the relativistic AdS-like behaviour. We exploit some conserved quantities to find a relationship between the energy density E, entropy density s, and number density n, E=frac{d}{d+1}(Ts+nmu), as is required by the isometries of AdS_{d+2}. Finally, in the (Tllmu) regime the entropy density is found to satisfy a power law s propto c T^{d/z} mu^{(z-1)d/z}, and we numerically explore the dependence of the constant c, a measure of the number of degrees of freedom, on d and z.
We report on the end state of nonaxisymmetric instabilities of singly spinning asymptotically flat Myers-Perry black holes. Starting from a singly spinning black hole in D=5,6,7 dimensions, we introduce perturbations with angular dependence described by m=2, m=3, or m=4 azimuthal mode numbers about the axis of rotation. In D=5, we find that all singly spinning Myers-Perry black holes are stable, in agreement with the results from perturbation theory. In D=6 and 7, we find that these black holes are nonlinearly stable only for sufficiently low spins. For intermediate spins, although the m=2 bar mode becomes unstable and leads to large deformations, the black hole settles back down to another member of the Myers-Perry family via gravitational wave emission; surprisingly, we find that all such unstable black holes settle to the same member of the Myers-Perry family. The amount of energy radiated into gravitational waves can be very large, in some cases more than 30% of the initial total mass of the system. For high enough spins, the m=4 mode becomes the dominant unstable mode, leading to deformed black holes that develop local Gregory-Laflamme instabilities, thus forming a naked singularity in finite time, which is further evidence for the violation of the weak cosmic censorship conjecture in asymptotically flat higher-dimensional spacetimes.

We comment on the role of the graviton mass in recent calculations of the Page curve using holographic ideas. All reliable calculations of the Page curve in more than 2+1 spacetime dimensions have been performed in systems with massive gravitons. A c rucial ingredient in these calculations is the formation of islands, regions that contribute to the entropy of degrees of freedom located elsewhere. While most often simply ignored, it is indeed true that mass of the graviton does not appear to significantly affect the calculations that appeared in the literature. We use the freedom to change the graviton mass to give an extremely simple model of analytically tractable island formation in general dimensions. We do however note that if one attempts to take the limit of zero graviton mass, any contribution from the islands disappears. This raises the question to what extent entanglement islands can play a role in standard massless gravity.
