A Puncture in the Euclidean Black Hole
Ram Brustein, Amit Giveon, Nissan Itzhaki +1
We consider the backreaction of the winding condensate on the cigar background. We focus on the case of the cigar associated with, e.g., the near-horizon…

Black Hole Entropy Sourced by String Winding Condensate
Ram Brustein, Yoav Zigdon
We calculate the entropy of an asymptotically Schwarzschild black hole (BH), using an effective field theory of winding modes in type II string theory. In Euclidean signature, the…

Effective field theory for closed strings near the Hagedorn temperature
Ram Brustein, Yoav Zigdon
We discuss interacting, closed, bosonic and superstrings in thermal equilibrium at temperatures close to the Hagedorn temperature in flat space. We calculate S-matrix elements of t…
