Microscopic Description of Critical Bubbles
Carlos Hoyos, David Mateos, Wilke van der Schee +1
First-order phase transitions occur through the nucleation of critical bubbles of the stable phase within the metastable phase. Using holography, we present a fully microscopic des…

Self-sustained, out-of-equilibrium inflation
Jorge Casalderrey-Solana, LucÃa Castells-Tiestos, Jéssica Gonçalves +1
We use holography to study dS-invariant states of non-conformal, strongly coupled quantum field theories in four-dimensional de Sitter space. We show that out-of-equilibrium effect…

Cosmic censorship in a (dual) collider
Marc Aragonès Fontboté, David Mateos, Guillem Pérez MartÃn +2
We investigate cosmic censorship in anti-de Sitter space in holographic models in which the ground state is described by a good singularity. These include supersymmetric truncation…
