RG Flow of Magnetic Brane Correlators
Eric D'Hoker, Per Kraus, Akhil Shah
The magnetic brane solution to five-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory provides a holographic description of the RG flow from four-dimensional Yang-Mills theory in th…
A Note on Non-BPS Black Holes in 5D
Akhil Shah
We study the possibility of constructing non-BPS charged black holes in 5D Poincare supergravity by partially violating superconformal Killing spinor equations. However, solutions…
Gravity Dual of a Quantum Hall Plateau Transition
Joshua L. Davis, Per Kraus, Akhil Shah
We show how to model the transition between distinct quantum Hall plateaus in terms of D-branes in string theory. A low energy theory of 2+1 dimensional fermions is obtained by con…
Fundamental Strings, Holography, and Nonlinear Superconformal Algebras
Per Kraus, Finn Larsen, Akhil Shah
We discuss aspects of holography in the AdS_3 \times S^p near string geometry of a collection of straight fundamental heterotic strings. We use anomalies and symmetries to determin…
