Title: Vacuum Decay with Black Holes
Abstract: I will review my work showing how primordial black holes can act as seeds for vacuum decay. I will describe first the classic Coleman prescription for computing vacuum decay in QFT, then how to include gravity showing how adding a black hole lowers the action of the Euclidean tunnelling solution. I will finish by discussing ideas on testing these, and other, gravitational/QFT phenomena in the lab.
