Mutual information after a local quench in conformal field theory
Curtis T. Asplund, Alice Bernamonti
We compute the entanglement entropy and mutual information for two disjoint intervals in two-dimensional conformal field theories as a function of time after a local quench, using…
Inhomogeneous holographic thermalization
V. Balasubramanian, A. Bernamonti, J. de Boer +6
The sudden injection of energy in a strongly coupled conformal field theory and its subsequent thermalization can be holographically modeled by a shell falling into anti-de Sitter…
Inhomogeneous Thermalization in Strongly Coupled Field Theories
V. Balasubramanian, A. Bernamonti, J. de Boer +6
To describe theoretically the creation and evolution of the quark-gluon plasma, one typically employs three ingredients: a model for the initial state, non-hydrodynamic early time…
The spectral function in a strongly coupled, thermalising CFT
Alice Bernamonti, Ben Craps, Joris Vanhoof
In relation to the fluctuation-dissipation theorem, we discuss a time-dependent notion of spectral function and effective temperature. Extending recent results from arXiv:1212.6066…
Thermalization of the spectral function in strongly coupled two dimensional conformal field theories
V. Balasubramanian, A. Bernamonti, B. Craps +5
Using Wigner transforms of Green functions, we discuss non-equilibrium generalizations of spectral functions and occupation numbers. We develop methods for computing time-dependent…
