Near Horizon Analysis of Extremal AdS5 Black Holes
Jaehyung Choi, Sungjay Lee, Sangmin Lee
We study the near horizon geometry of extremal black holes in five dimensional gauged supergravity using Sen's entropy function formalism. Special attention is paid to the large bl…

Dense Holographic QCD in the Wigner-Seitz Approximation
Keun-Young Kim, Sang-Jin Sin, Ismail Zahed
We investigate cold dense matter in the context of Sakai and Sugimoto's holographic model of QCD in the Wigner-Seitz approximation. In bulk, baryons are treated as instantons on S^…

Diffusion in an Expanding Plasma using AdS/CFT
Keun-Young Kim, Sang-Jin Sin, Ismail Zahed
We consider the diffusion of a non-relativistic heavy quark of fixed mass M, in a one-dimensionally expanding and strongly coupled plasma using the AdS/CFT duality. The Green's fun…
