Dynamics of D-brane Black Holes
Steven S. Gubser
We explore the interplay between black holes in supergravity and quantum field theories on the world-volumes of D-branes. A brief summary of black hole entropy calculations for D-b…

Dilaton-driven confinement
Steven S. Gubser
We derive a solution of type IIB supergravity which is asymptotic to AdS_5 x S^5, has SO(6) symmetry, and exhibits some of the features expected of geometries dual to confining gau…
