The Chern-Simons Diffusion Rate in Improved Holographic QCD

Umut Gursoy, Ioannis Iatrakis, Elias Kiritsis +2

In (3+1)-dimensional SU(Nc) Yang-Mills (YM) theory, the Chern-Simons diffusion rate, Gamma_{CS}, is determined by the zero-momentum, zero-frequency limit of the retarded two-point…

All-loop Bethe ansatz equations for AdS3/CFT2

Riccardo Borsato, Olof Ohlsson Sax, Alessandro Sfondrini

Using the S-matrix for the d(2,1;alpha)^2 symmetric spin-chain of AdS3/CFT2, we propose a new set of all-loop Bethe equations for the system. These equations differ from the ones p…

The SU(3)-invariant sector of new maximal supergravity

A. Borghese, G. Dibitetto, A. Guarino +2

We investigate the SU(3)-invariant sector of the one-parameter family of SO(8) gauged maximal supergravity that has been recently proposed. To this end, we construct the N=2 trunca…

A dynamic su(1|1)^2 S-matrix for AdS3/CFT2

Riccardo Borsato, Olof Ohlsson Sax, Alessandro Sfondrini

We derive the S-matrix for the d(2,1;alpha)^2 symmetric spin-chain of AdS3/CFT2 by considering the centrally extended su(1|1)^2 algebra acting on the spin-chain excitations. The S-…

Holographic thermalization with radial flow

Wilke van der Schee

Recently, a lot of effort has been put into describing the thermalization of the quark-gluon plasma using the gauge/gravity duality. In this context we here present a full numerica…

On the non-BPS first order flow in N=2 U(1)-gauged Supergravity

Alessandra Gnecchi, Chiara Toldo

We consider theories of N=2 supergravity with Fayet-Iliopoulos gauging, and describe a procedure to obtain non-BPS extremal black hole solutions in asymptotically AdS_4 space, in a…
