AdS Crunches, CFT Falls And Cosmological Complementarity
J. L. F. Barbon, E. Rabinovici
We discuss aspects of the holographic description of crunching AdS cosmologies. We argue that crunching FRW models with hyperbolic spatial sections are dual to semiclassical conden…
Ideal gas matching for thermal Galilean holography
Jose L. F. Barbon, Carlos A. Fuertes
We exhibit a nonrelativistic ideal gas with a Kaluza-Klein tower of species, featuring a singular behavior of thermodynamic functions at zero chemical potential. In this way, we pr…
On the spectrum of nonrelativistic AdS/CFT
Jose L. F. Barbon, Carlos A. Fuertes
We develop a Hamiltonian picture for a family of models of nonrelativistic AdS/CFT duality. The Schrodinger group is realized via the conformal quantum mechanics of De Alfaro, Fubi…
Deconstructing the Little Hagedorn Holography
Jose L. F. Barbon, Carlos A. Fuertes, Eliezer Rabinovici
We study aspects of the thermodynamics of Little String Theory, using its geometrical definition in critical ten-dimensional string theory. We find that bulk radiation effects tend…
Dynamical Higgs potentials with a landscape
J. L. F. Barbon, C. Hoyos
We consider one-loop effective potentials for adjoint Higgs fields that originate from flat holonomies in toroidal compactification of gauge theories. We show that such potentials…
Small volume expansion of almost supersymmetric large N theories
J. L. F. Barbón, C. Hoyos
We consider the small-volume dynamics of nonsupersymmetric orbifold and orientifold field theories defined on a three-torus, in a test of the claimed planar equivalence between the…
