Exploring the bound state with dressed quarks in Minkowski space
A. Castro, W. de Paula, E. Ydrefors +2
The Bethe-Salpeter equation for a pseudoscalar bound-system, with i) a ladder kernel with massive gluons, ii) dynamically-dressed quark mass function and iii) an extended quark-glu…
Coupling Fields to 3D Quantum Gravity via Chern-Simons Theory
Alejandra Castro, Ioana Coman, Jackson R. Fliss +1
We propose a mechanism that couples matter fields to three-dimensional quantum gravity, which can be used for theories with a positive or negative cosmological constant. Our propos…
Near-Extremal Limits of Warped Black Holes
Ankit Aggarwal, Alejandra Castro, Stéphane Detournay +1
A holographic description of three-dimensional warped black holes suffers from ambiguities due to a seemingly harmless choice of coordinate system. This gives rise to the notion of…
Keeping matter in the loop in dS quantum gravity
Alejandra Castro, Ioana Coman, Jackson R. Fliss +1
We propose a mechanism that couples matter fields to three-dimensional de Sitter quantum gravity. Our construction is based on the Chern-Simons formulation of three-dimensional Euc…
Near-Extremal Limits of de Sitter Black Holes
Alejandra Castro, Francesca Mariani, Chiara Toldo
We analyze the thermodynamic response near extremality of charged black holes in four-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory with a positive cosmological constant. The latter exhibit…
Conformal field theories dual to quantum gravity with strongly coupled matter
Luis Apolo, Alexandre Belin, Suzanne Bintanja +2
A holographic conformal field theory is dual to semi-classical general relativity in Anti-de Sitter space coupled to matter fields. If the CFT factorizes in the large- limit, th…
