The (2 + 1)-dimensional black hole

TL;DR: Banados, Teitelboim and Zanelli as discussed by the authors reviewed the classical and quantum properties of the (2 + 1)-dimensional (3 + 1) black hole and showed that it shares many of the characteristics of the Kerr black hole: it has an event horizon, an inner horizon, and an ergosphere; it occurs as an endpoint of gravitational collapse.

Three-Dimensional Quantum Gravity, Chern-Simons Theory, and the A-Polynomial

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied three-dimensional Chern-Simons theory with complex gauge group SL(2,ℂ) and showed that the classical and quantum properties of such theory are described by an algebraic curve called the A-polynomial of a knot.
