Abstract

Abstract After a brief review of Gödel‐type universes in string theory, we discuss some intriguing properties of black holes immersed in such backgrounds. Among these are the upper bound on the entropy that points towards a finite‐dimensional Hilbert space of a holographically dual theory, and the minimum black hole temperature that is reminiscent of the Hawking‐Page transition. Furthermore, we discuss several difficulties that are encountered when one tries to formulate a consistent thermodynamics of Gödel black holes, and point out how they may be circumvented.
