Acoustic black holes in curved spacetime and emergence of analogue Minkowski metric

Abstract: Gravity is not only able to be mimicked in flat spacetimes, but also in curved spacetimes. We study analogue gravity models in curved spacetime by considering the relativistic Gross-Pitaevskii theory and Yang-Mills theory in the fixed background spacetime geometry. The results show that acoustic metrics can be emergent from curved spacetimes yielding a Hadamard product of a real metric-tensor and an analogue metric-tensor. Taking \emph{quantum vortices} as \emph{test particles}, we evaluate their released energy ratio during the "gravitational binding". The $2+1$-dimensional flat Minkowski metric is derived from the $3+1$-dimensional Anti-de Sitter space by considering perturbations of the Yang-Mills field, which implies that Minkowski spacetime can be also simulated and the derivations presented here have some deep connections with the holographic principle.
