Non-conformal obstructions to bubble expansion
David Mateos, Mikel Sanchez-Garitaonandia, Pedro Tarancón-Álvarez
We investigate the hydrodynamics of expanding bubbles in first-order phase transitions with non-conformal thermodynamics. We analyze a broad class of equations of state interpolati…
Gravitational Duals from Equations of State II: Large Hierarchies and False Vacua
Raul Jimenez, David Mateos, Pavlos Protopapas +3
We investigate the reconstruction of holographic duals for strongly coupled quantum field theories in regimes characterized by large hierarchies and the presence of false vacua. Wi…
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, Lucía 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…
Bubble dynamics in a QCD-like phase diagram
Yago Bea, Mauro Giliberti, David Mateos +3
A line of first-order phase transitions is conjectured in the phase diagram of Quantum Chromodynamics at non-zero baryon density. If this is the case, numerical simulations of neut…
Cosmic censorship in a (dual) collider
Marc Aragonès Fontboté, David Mateos, Guillem Pérez Martín +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…
