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…

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…
