Quantum Effects of the Conformal Anomaly in a 2D Model of Gravitational Collapse

Emil Mottola, Mani Chandra, Gian Mario Manca +1

The macroscopic effects of the quantum conformal anomaly are evaluated in a simplified two-dimensional model of gravitational collapse. The effective action and stress tensor of th…

(Non) supersymmetric quantum quenches

Ling-Yan Hung, Michael Smolkin, Evgeny Sorkin

We explore supersymmetric quantum quenches of the mass and coupling constants in the supersymmetric vector model using Hartee-Fock approximation. We find that in th…

Striped Order in AdS/CFT

Moshe Rozali, Darren Smyth, Evgeny Sorkin +1

We study the formation of inhomogeneous order in the Einstein-Maxwell-axion system, dual to a 2+1 dimensional field theory that exhibits a spontaneously generated current density,…

Holographic Stripes

Moshe Rozali, Darren Smyth, Evgeny Sorkin +1

We construct inhomogeneous asymptotically AdS black hole solutions corresponding to the spontaneous breaking of translational invariance and the formation of striped order in the b…

Modification of late time phase structure by quantum quenches

Ling-Yan Hung, Michael Smolkin, Evgeny Sorkin

The consequences of the sudden change in the coupling constants (quenches) on the phase structure of the theory at late times are explored. We study in detail the three dimensional…

Holographic Higgs Phases

Moshe Rozali, Darren Smyth, Evgeny Sorkin

We discuss phases of gauge theories in the holographic context, and formulate a criterion for the existence of a Higgs phase, where the gauge redundancy is "spontaneously broken",…
