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…
Flow of Geometries and Instantons on the Null Orbifold
Micha Berkooz, Zohar Komargodski, Dori Reichmann +1
We study condensation of twisted sector states in the null orbifold geometry. As the singularity is time-dependent, we probe it using D-Instantons. We present evidence that the nul…
The Effective Potential of the N=0* Yang-Mills Theory
Assaf Patir, Dori Reichmann
We study the \N=4 SYM theory with SU(N) gauge group in the large N limit, deformed by giving equal mass to the four adjoint fermions. With this modification, a potential is dynamic…
