All you need is N: Baryon spectroscopy in two large N limits

Aleksey Cherman, Thomas D. Cohen, Richard F. Lebed

The generalization of QCD to many colors is not unique; each distinct choice corresponds to a distinct 1/N_c expansion. The familiar 't Hooft N_c -> \infty limit places quarks in t…

Universal relations of transport coefficients from holography

Aleksey Cherman, Abhinav Nellore

We show that there are universal high-temperature relations for transport coefficients of plasmas described by a wide class of field theories with gravity duals. These theories can…

A bound on the speed of sound from holography

Aleksey Cherman, Thomas D. Cohen, Abhinav Nellore

We show that the squared speed of sound v_{s}^{2} is bounded from above at high temperatures by the conformal value of 1/3 in a class of strongly coupled four-dimensional field the…

Model Independent Tests of Skyrmions and Their Holographic Cousins

Aleksey Cherman, Thomas D. Cohen, Marina Nielsen

We describe a new exact relation for large QCD for the long-distance behavior of baryon form factors in the chiral limit. This model-independent relation is used to test the…

A sticky business: the status of the conjectured viscosity/entropy density bound

Aleksey Cherman, Thomas D. Cohen, Paul M. Hohler

There have been a number of forms of a conjecture that there is a universal lower bound on the ratio, eta/s, of the shear viscosity, eta, to entropy density, s, with several differ…
