Phase Transition Dynamics and Its Alpha' Corrections

Abstract

We study the dynamics of the first order phase transition in the holographic hard wall model, namely, Polchinski-Strassler's model and come to the conclusion that the phase transition is incomplete in large N limit with the natural boundary condition. We also consider the string length corrections to both hard wall model and Witten's model, and find that the interesting transition configuration is preserved under the alpha' corrections.
