Aspects of non-associative structures in physics

Ioannis Bakas

We summarize the emergence of non-commutative/non-associative structures in Dirac's generalization of Maxwell theory, focusing mostly on the magnetic field analogue of the non-geom…

On Elliptic String Solutions in AdS(3) and dS(3)

Ioannis Bakas, Georgios Pastras

Classical string actions in AdS(3) and dS(3) can be connected to the sinh-Gordon and cosh-Gordon equations through Pohlmeyer reduction. We show that the problem of constructing a c…

Towards a world-sheet description of doubled geometry in string theory

Ioannis Bakas, Dieter Lust, Erik Plauschinn

Starting from a sigma-model for a doubled target-space geometry, we show that the number of target-space dimensions can be reduced by half through a gauging procedure. We apply thi…

Self-similar equilibration of strongly interacting systems from holography

Ioannis Bakas, Kostas Skenderis, Benjamin Withers

We study the equilibration of a class of far-from-equilibrium strongly interacting systems using gauge/gravity duality. The systems we analyse are 2+1 dimensional and have a four d…

T-duality, Quotients and Currents for Non-Geometric Closed Strings

Ioannis Bakas, Dieter Lust

We use the canonical description of T-duality as well as the formulation of T-duality in terms of chiral currents to investigate the geometric and non-geometric faces of closed str…

Entanglement Entropy and Duality in AdS(4)

Ioannis Bakas, Georgios Pastras

Small variations of the entanglement entropy δS and the expectation value of the modular Hamiltonian δE are computed holographically for circular entangling curves in the boundary…
