Full action of two deformation operators in the D1D5 CFT
Zaq Carson, Shaun Hampton, Samir D. Mathur
We are interested in thermalization in the D1D5 CFT, since this process is expected to be dual to black hole formation. We expect that the lowest order process where thermalization…

What prevents gravitational collapse in string theory?
Samir D. Mathur
It is conventionally believed that if a ball of matter of mass has a radius close to then it must collapse to a black hole. But string theory microstates (fuzzballs) have…

One-Loop Transition Amplitudes in the D1D5 CFT
Zaq Carson, Shaun Hampton, Samir D. Mathur
We consider the issue of thermalization in the D1D5 CFT. Thermalization is expected to correspond to the formation of a black hole in the dual gravity theory. We start from the orb…
