Hovering Black Holes from Charged Defects
Gary T. Horowitz, Nabil Iqbal, Jorge E. Santos +1
We construct the holographic dual of an electrically charged, localised defect in a conformal field theory at strong coupling, by applying a spatially dependent chemical potential.…
A No Black Hole Theorem
Gavin S. Hartnett, Gary T. Horowitz, Kengo Maeda
We show that one cannot put a stationary (extended) black hole inside certain gravitating flux-tubes. This includes an electric flux-tube in five-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theor…
A Simple Holographic Insulator
Eric Mefford, Gary T. Horowitz
We present a simple holographic model of an insulator. Unlike most previous holographic insulators, the zero temperature infrared geometry is completely nonsingular. Both the low t…
Holographic Signatures of Cosmological Singularities
Netta Engelhardt, Thomas Hertog, Gary T. Horowitz
To gain insight in the quantum nature of cosmological singularities, we study anisotropic Kasner solutions in gauge/gravity duality. The dual description of the bulk evolution towa…
