Gravitational quasinormal modes of AdS black branes in d spacetime dimensions

Jaqueline Morgan, Vitor Cardoso, Alex S. Miranda +2

The AdS/CFT duality has established a mapping between quantities in the bulk AdS black-hole physics and observables in a boundary finite-temperature field theory. Such a relationsh…

Bifurcation of Plasma Balls and Black Holes to Lobed Configurations

Vitor Cardoso, Oscar J. C. Dias

At high energy densities any quantum field theory is expected to have an effective hydrodynamic description. When combined with the gravity/gauge duality an unified picture emerges…

Noncommutative Quantum Cosmology

C. Bastos, O. Bertolami, N. Dias +1

One presents a phase-space noncommutative extension of Quantum Cosmology in the context of a Kantowski-Sachs (KS) minisuperspace model. We obtain the Wheeler-DeWitt (WDW) equation…

Quasinormal modes and thermodynamic phase transitions

Emanuele Berti, Vitor Cardoso

It has recently been suggested that scalar, Dirac and Rarita-Schwinger perturbations are related to thermodynamic phase transitions of charged (Reissner-Nordström) black holes. In…

Deformation quantization of noncommutative quantum mechanics and dissipation

C. Bastos, O. Bertolami, N. C. Dias +1

We review the main features of the Weyl-Wigner formulation of noncommutative quantum mechanics. In particular, we present a -product and a Moyal bracket suitable for this th…

Environment-Induced Decoherence in Noncommutative Quantum Mechanics

Joao Nuno Prata, Nuno Costa Dias

We address the question of the appearence of ordinary quantum mechanics in the context of noncommutative quantum mechanics. We obtain the noncommutative extension of the Hu-Paz-Zha…
