Decoupling limits of N=4 super Yang-Mills on R x S^3

Troels Harmark, Kristjan R. Kristjansson, Marta Orselli

We find new decoupling limits of N=4 super Yang-Mills (SYM) on R x S^3 with gauge group SU(N). These decoupling limits lead to decoupled theories that are much simpler than the ful…

Entropy of Three-Charge Black Holes on a Circle

Troels Harmark, Kristjan R. Kristjansson, Niels A. Obers +1

We study phases of five-dimensional three-charge black holes with a circle in their transverse space. In particular, when the black hole is localized on the circle we compute the c…

The Hagedorn temperature in a decoupled sector of AdS/CFT

Troels Harmark, Kristjan R. Kristjansson, Marta Orselli

We match the Hagedorn/deconfinement temperature of planar N=4 super Yang-Mills (SYM) on R x S^3 to the Hagedorn temperature of string theory on AdS_5 x S^5. The match is done in a…

Global geometry of two-dimensional charged black holes

Andrei V. Frolov, Kristjan R. Kristjansson, Larus Thorlacius

The semiclassical geometry of charged black holes is studied in the context of a two-dimensional dilaton gravity model where effects due to pair-creation of charged particles can b…

Semi-classical geometry of charged black holes

Andrei V. Frolov, Kristjan R. Kristjansson, Larus Thorlacius

At the classical level, two-dimensional dilaton gravity coupled to an abelian gauge field has charged black hole solutions, which have much in common with four-dimensional Reissner…

Correlation functions in a c=1 boundary conformal field theory

Kristjan R. Kristjansson, Larus Thorlacius

We obtain exact results for correlation functions of primary operators in the two-dimensional conformal field theory of a scalar field interacting with a critical periodic boundary…
