Intersecting black branes in strong gravitational waves
Li-Ming Cao, Oleg Evnin, Nobuyoshi Ohta
We consider intersecting black branes with strong gravitational waves propagating along their worldvolume in the context of supergravity theories. Both near-horizon and space-filli…
Light-like Big Bang singularities in string and matrix theories
Ben Craps, Oleg Evnin
Important open questions in cosmology require a better understanding of the Big Bang singularity. In string and matrix theories, light-like analogues of cosmological singularities…
Randomized Wilson loops, reduced models and the large D expansion
Oleg Evnin
Reduced models are matrix integrals believed to be related to the large N limit of gauge theories. These integrals are known to simplify further when the number of matrices D (corr…
Extended black holes in strong gravitational waves
Li-Ming Cao, Oleg Evnin, Nobuyoshi Ohta
We describe a large class of solutions in pure gravity, dilaton gravity and supergravity corresponding to extended higher-dimensional black holes with strong (non-linear) gravitati…
