Conductivity and quasinormal modes in holographic theories
M. A. Stephanov, Y. Yin
We show that in field theories with a holographic dual the retarded Green's function of a conserved current can be represented as a convergent sum over the quasinormal modes. We fi…

On the sign of kurtosis near the QCD critical point
M. A. Stephanov
We point out that the quartic cumulant (and kurtosis) of the order parameter fluctuations is universally negative when the critical point is approached on the crossover side of the…

Bulk spectral function sum rule in QCD-like theories with a holographic dual
Paul M. Hohler, Mikhail A. Stephanov
We derive the sum rule for the spectral function of the stress-energy tensor in the bulk (uniform dilatation) channel in a general class of strongly coupled field theories. This cl…
