Abstract: Thermal correlators in large N
systems equilibrate at late times, but the precise
functional behavior is unknown away from holographic and free field
limits. In this talk I will analyze this problem in the case of the
SYK model at high...
Abstract: We compute the supersymmetric index
of half BPS black holes in N=2 supergravity with higher curvature
corrections and show that the result agrees with the degeneracy of
supersymmetric extremal black holes carrying the same charges.
Both...
Abstract: Mostly concerning Lorentz-invariance
and the matrix-approximation of membranes ( GH1982: http:/dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/15717, G1985,
BFFS1997: Phys.Rev.D 55, 5512 ), as well as non-commutative
string-theory ( JH1996: hep-th/9602020...
Abstract: An intrinsic quantity characterizing
a scale-invariant quantum field theory (SFT) is its thermal mass
gap, controlling its correlation length at finite temperature. By
scale-invariance, this is a pure number in units of the
temperature...
