Holography and Thermodynamics of 5D Dilaton-gravity
U. Gursoy, E. Kiritsis, L. Mazzanti +1
The asymptotically-logarithmically-AdS black-hole solutions of 5D dilaton gravity with a monotonic dilaton potential are analyzed in detail. Such theories are holographically very…
Discriminating MSSM families in (free-field) Gepner Orientifolds
Elias Kiritsis, Bert Schellekens, Mirian Tsulaia
A complete analysis of orientifold compactifications involving Gepner models that are free fields (k=1,2) is performed. A set of tadpole solutions is found that are variants of a s…
Interacting String Multi-verses and Holographic Instabilities of Massive Gravity
Elias Kiritsis, Vasilis Niarchos
Products of large-N conformal field theories coupled by multi-trace interactions in diverse dimensions are used to define quantum multi-gravity (multi-string theory) on a union of…
(Multi)Matrix Models and Interacting Clones of Liouville Gravity
Elias Kiritsis, Vasilis Niarchos
Large-N matrix models coupled via multitrace operators are used to define, via appropriate double-scaling limits, solvable models of interacting multi-string theories. It is shown…
Deconfinement and Gluon Plasma Dynamics in Improved Holographic QCD
U. Gursoy, E. Kiritsis, L. Mazzanti +1
The finite temperature physics of the pure glue sector in the improved holographic QCD model of arXiv:0707.1324 and arXiv:0707.1349 is addressed. The thermodynamics of 5D dilaton g…
