Non-Gaussianity from Schwinger-Keldysh Effective Field Theory
Shu Lin, Yanyan Bu, Chang Lei
We present a systematic treatment of non-Gaussianity in stochastic systems using the Schwinger-Keldysh effective field theory framework, in which the non-Gaussianity is realized as…
Holographic thermalization with initial long range correlation
Shu Lin
We studied the evolution of Wightman correlator in a thermalizing state modeled by AdS_3-Vaidya background. We gave a prescription for calculating Wightman correlator in coordinate…
The anomalous transport of axial charge: topological vs non-topological fluctuations
Ioannis Iatrakis, Shu Lin, Yi Yin
Axial charge imbalance is an essential ingredient in novel effects associated with chiral anomaly such as chiral magnetic effects (CME). In a non-Abelian plasma with chiral fermion…
Instabilities near the QCD phase transition in the holographic models
Umut Gursoy, Shu Lin, Edward Shuryak
The paper discusses phenomena close to the critical QCD temperature, using the holographic model. One issue studied is the overcooled high-T phase, in which we calculate quasi norm…
Thermalization from gauge/gravity duality: Evolution of singularities in unequal time correlators
Johanna Erdmenger, Shu Lin
We consider a gauge/gravity dual model of thermalization which consists of a collapsing thin matter shell in asymptotically Anti-de Sitter space. A central aspect of our model is t…
Time singularities of correlators from Dirichlet conditions in AdS/CFT
Johanna Erdmenger, Carlos Hoyos, Shu Lin
Within AdS/CFT, we establish a general procedure for obtaining the leading singularity of two-point correlators involving operator insertions at different times. The procedure obta…
On Stability and Transport of Cold Holographic Matter
Martin Ammon, Johanna Erdmenger, Shu Lin +3
We use gauge-gravity duality to study the stability of zero-temperature, finite baryon density states of N=4 supersymmetric SU(Nc) Yang-Mills theory coupled to a single massive fun…
Toward Thermalization in Heavy Ion Collisions at Strong Coupling
Yuri V. Kovchegov, Shu Lin
We find the trapped surface for a collision of two sourceless shock waves in AdS and conclude that such collisions always lead to a creation of a black hole in the bulk. Due to…
Grazing Collisions of Gravitational Shock Waves and Entropy Production in Heavy Ion Collision
Shu Lin, Edward Shuryak
AdS/CFT correspondence is now widely used for study of strongly coupled plasmas, such as produced in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions at RHIC. While properties of equilibrate…
Toward the AdS/CFT Gravity Dual for High Energy Collisions. 3.Gravitationally Collapsing Shell and Quasiequilibrium
Shu Lin, Edward Shuryak
The equilibration of matter and onset of hydrodynamics can be understood in the AdS/CFT context as a gravitational collapse process, in which "collision debris" create a horizon. I…
