The effects of intra-detector Compton scatter on zero-frequency DQE for photon-counting CT using edge-on-irradiated silicon detectors
Fredrik Grönberg, Zhye Yin, Jonathan Maltz +2
Background: Edge-on-irradiated silicon detectors are currently being investigated for use in photon-counting CT applications. The low atomic number of silicon leads to a significan…
Toward Holographic Reconstruction of Bulk Geometry from Lattice Simulations
Enrico Rinaldi, Evan Berkowitz, Masanori Hanada +2
A black hole described in gauge theory consists of D-branes. By separating one of the D-branes from others and studying the interaction between them, the black hole geo…
de Sitter Harmonies: Cosmological Spacetimes as Resonances
Jonathan Maltz
The aim of this work is to provided the details of a calculation summarized in the recent paper by Maltz and Susskind which conjectured a potentially rigorous framework where the s…
de Sitter as a Resonance
Jonathan Maltz, Leonard Susskind
A quantum mechanical formulation of de Sitter cosmological spacetimes still eludes string theory. In this paper we conjecture a potentially rigorous framework in which the status o…
A proposal of the gauge theory description of the small Schwarzschild black hole in AdSS
Masanori Hanada, Jonathan Maltz
Based on 4d SYM on S, a gauge theory description of a small black hole in AdSS is proposed. The change of the number of dynamic…
A microscopic description of black hole evaporation via holography
Evan Berkowitz, Masanori Hanada, Jonathan Maltz
We propose a description of how a large, cold black hole (black zero-brane) in type IIA superstring theory evaporates into freely propagating D0-branes, by solving the dual gauge t…
Chaos in Matrix Models and Black Hole Evaporation
Evan Berkowitz, Masanori Hanada, Jonathan Maltz
Is the evaporation of a black hole described by a unitary theory? In order to shed light on this question ---especially aspects of this question such as a black hole's negative spe…
Effective String Theory Simplified
Simeon Hellerman, Shunsuke Maeda, Jonathan Maltz +1
In this set of notes we simplify the formulation of the Poincare'-invariant effective string theory in D dimensions by adding an intrinsic metric and embedding its dynamics into th…
Deconfinement transition as black hole formation by the condensation of QCD strings
Masanori Hanada, Jonathan Maltz, Leonard Susskind
We argue that the deconfinement transition of large-N Yang-Mills theory is the condensation of very long and self-intersecting chromo-electric flux strings (QCD string), which is a…
Towards String Theory models of DeSitter Space and early Universe Cosmology
Jonathan Maltz
String theory is arguably the best candidate for a theory of quantum gravity and unified interactions. Reconciling Einstein's theory of General Relativity with Quantum Mechanics. T…
Gauge Invariant Computable Quantities In Timelike Liouville Theory
Jonathan Maltz
Timelike Liouville theory admits the sphere as a real saddle point, about which quantum fluctuations can occur. An issue occurs when computing the expectation valu…
Light States in Chern-Simons Theory Coupled to Fundamental Matter
Shamik Banerjee, Simeon Hellerman, Jonathan Maltz +1
Motivated by developments in vectorlike holography, we study SU(N) Chern-Simons theory coupled to matter fields in the fundamental representation on various spatial manifolds. On t…
Analytic Continuation of Liouville Theory
Daniel Harlow, Jonathan Maltz, Edward Witten
Correlation functions in Liouville theory are meromorphic functions of the Liouville momenta, as is shown explicitly by the DOZZ formula for the three-point function on the sphere.…
