Component twist method for higher twists in D1D5 CFT
Zaq Carson, Ian T. Jardine, Amanda W. Peet
The deformation operator of the D1D5 orbifold CFT, a twist 2 operator, drives the CFT towards the black hole dual and its physics is key to understanding thermalization in the D1D5…

Full action of two deformation operators in the D1D5 CFT
Zaq Carson, Shaun Hampton, Samir D. Mathur
We are interested in thermalization in the D1D5 CFT, since this process is expected to be dual to black hole formation. We expect that the lowest order process where thermalization…

One-Loop Transition Amplitudes in the D1D5 CFT
Zaq Carson, Shaun Hampton, Samir D. Mathur
We consider the issue of thermalization in the D1D5 CFT. Thermalization is expected to correspond to the formation of a black hole in the dual gravity theory. We start from the orb…
