A String Theory Explanation for Quantum Chaos in the Hadronic Spectrum
Leopoldo A. Pando Zayas, Dori Reichmann
In the 1950's Wigner and collaborators provided an explanation for the spectrum of hadronic excitations in terms of Random Matrix Theory. In the 1980's it was understood that some…
Rigid Supersymmetric Backgrounds of Minimal Off-Shell Supergravity
James T. Liu, Leopoldo A. Pando Zayas, Dori Reichmann
We discuss various aspects of rigid supersymmetry within minimal N=1 off-shell supergravity using the old and new minimal formulations both in Lorentzian and Euclidean signatures.…
On Field Theory Thermalization from Gravitational Collapse
David Garfinkle, Leopoldo A. Pando Zayas, Dori Reichmann
Motivated by its field theory interpretation, we study gravitational collapse of a minimally coupled massless scalar field in Einstein gravity with a negative cosmological constant…
A Holographic Chiral p_x + ip_y Superconductor
Leopoldo A. Pando Zayas, Dori Reichmann
Using a string inspired model we construct gravity duals generalizing px and p_x + ip_y superconductors. Introducing a Chern-Simons coupling in the gravity side we demonstrate the…
Thermal AdS(3), BTZ and competing winding modes condensation
Micha Berkooz, Zohar Komargodski, Dori Reichmann
We study the thermal physics of AdS(3) and the BTZ black hole when embedded in String theory. The exact calculation of the Hagedorn temperature in TAdS(3) is reinterpreted as the a…
A Short Review of Time Dependent Solutions and Space-like Singularities in String Theory
Micha Berkooz, Dori Reichmann
These lecture notes provide a short review of the status of time dependent backgrounds in String theory, and in particular those that contain space-like singularities. Despite cons…
