Near-Light-Cone Nonhydrodynamic Structure from Boosted Hydrodynamics

Navid Abbasi, Jewel Kumar Ghosh, Dirk H. Rischke

Hydrodynamics provides a universal description of many-body systems at long wavelengths. Its long-lived collective excitations, known as hydrodynamic modes, admit long-wavelength e…

Cumulant dynamics in finite-memory diffusion

Navid Abbasi, Xin An, Shanjin Wu

Fluctuations of conserved charges are among the main proposed signatures of the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) critical point, but their interpretation requires a dynamical descripti…

Comparison between Causal and Acausal Diffusion: a Schwinger-Keldysh Effective Field Theory Perspective

Navid Abbasi, Matthias Kaminski, Dirk H. Rischke

In Fick's time-honored theory of diffusion, the system responds instantaneously to external perturbations, resulting in acausal behavior. Maxwell-Cattaneo theory addresses this iss…

Three-point functions from a Schwinger-Keldysh effective action, resummed in derivatives

Navid Abbasi, Dirk H. Rischke

The search for the conjectured QCD critical point in heavy-ion collisions requires to account for far-from equilibrium effects as well as fluctuations, and in particular non-Gaussi…

Pole-skipping as order parameter to probe a quantum critical point

Navid Abbasi, Karl Landsteiner

The holographic system described by Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons dynamics in the bulk of AdS exhibits a chiral magnetic effect and a quantum critical point. Through numerical calc…

Dense Nuclear Matter Equation of State from Heavy-Ion Collisions

Agnieszka Sorensen, Kshitij Agarwal, Kyle W. Brown +133

The nuclear equation of state (EOS) is at the center of numerous theoretical and experimental efforts in nuclear physics. With advances in microscopic theories for nuclear interact…

On the correlation functions in stable first-order relativistic hydrodynamics

Navid Abbasi, Ali Davody, Sara Tahery

First-order relativistic conformal hydrodynamics in a general (hydrodynamic) frame is characterized by a shear viscosity coefficient and two UV-regulator parameters. Within a certa…

Theory of non-linear diffusion with a physical gapped mode

Navid Abbasi, Matthias Kaminski, Omid Tavakol

In a system with one conserved charge the charge diffusion is modified by non-linear self-interactions within an effective field theory (EFT) of diffusive fluctuations. We include…

Characteristic momentum of Hydro+ and a bound on the speed of sound near the QCD critical point

Navid Abbasi, Matthias Kaminski

Near the critical point in the QCD phase diagram, hydrodynamics breaks down at a momentum where the frequency of the fastest hydrodynamic mode becomes comparable with the decay rat…

Long-time tails in the SYK chain from the effective field theory with a large number of derivatives

Navid Abbasi

We study the nonlinear energy diffusion through the SYK chain in the framework of Schwinger-Keldysh effective field theory. We analytically construct the interacting effective Lagr…

Constraints on quasinormal modes and bounds for critical points from pole-skipping

Navid Abbasi, Matthias Kaminski

We consider a holographic thermal state and perturb it by a scalar operator whose associated real-time Green's function has only gapped poles. These gapped poles correspond to the…

Complexified quasinormal modes and the pole-skipping in a holographic system at finite chemical potential

Navid Abbasi, Sara Tahery

We develop a method to study coupled dynamics of gauge-invariant variables, constructed out of metric and gauge field fluctuations on the background of a AdS Reissner-Nordström…

Quantum chaos, pole-skipping and hydrodynamics in a holographic system with chiral anomaly

Navid Abbasi, Javad Tabatabaei

It is well-known that chiral anomaly can be macroscopically detected through the energy and charge transport, due to the chiral magnetic effect. On the other hand, in a holographic…

Magneto-transport in an anomalous fluid with weakly broken symmetries, in weak and strong regime

Navid Abbasi, Armin Ghazi, Farid Taghinavaz +1

We consider a general system with weakly broken time and translation symmetries. We assume the system also possesses a symmetry which is not only weakly broken, but is anoma…

Magneto-Transport in a Chiral Fluid from Kinetic Theory

Navid Abbasi, Farid Taghinavaz, Omid Tavakol

We argue that in order to study the magneto-transport in a relativistic Weyl fluid, it is needed to take into account the associated quantum corrections, namely the side-jump effec…

Navid Abbasi, Kiarash Naderi, Farid Taghinavaz

In the framework of chiral kinetic theory (CKT), we consider a system of right- and left-handed Weyl fermions out of thermal equilibrium in a homogeneous weak magnetic field. We sh…
