VERONIKA HUBENY

Ph.D.

Department of Mathematical Sciences

14-17 de junio de 2010

La doctora Verónika Hubeny participó en el VXI European Workshop on String Theory en el que ofreció la siguiente conferencia: Holographic insights and puzzles

The talk will be composed of two parts, both set within the AdS/CFT context. In the first part, I will discuss holographic insight into strongly coupled eld theory in a black hole background. I will conjecture two new gravitational solutions, dubbed black funnels and black droplets, which describe two distinct decon ned phases in the eld theory at nite temperature. I will also briefly mention puzzles associated with an analogous set-up in a rotating black hole background. In the second part of the talk, I will discuss time-dependent states in a CFT on  at spacetime background, exempli ed by the conformal soliton flow. Here I will focus on puzzles regarding the nature of entropy in time-evolving states and its holographic dual.
