Absence of resonant decay for metastable vacua in gauge theories of scalar fields
M. Cardella, S. Elitzur, E. Rabinovici
We prove the impossibility of resonant decay of a metastable vacuum in a theory of a scalar field coupled to a gauge field. Our result extends to gauge theories of scalar fields a…
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…
Multitrace Deformations of Vector and Adjoint Theories and their Holographic Duals
S. Elitzur, A. Giveon, M. Porrati +1
We present general methods to study the effect of multitrace deformations in conformal theories admitting holographic duals in Anti de Sitter space. In particular, we analyse the c…
Topology Change and Unitarity in Quantum Black Hole Dynamics
J. L. F. Barbon, E. Rabinovici
We discuss to what extent semiclassical topology change is capable of restoring unitarity in the relaxation of perturbations of eternal black holes in thermal equilibrium. The Poin…
On Thermodynamical Properties of Some Coset CFT Backgrounds
A. Giveon, A. Konechny, E. Rabinovici +1
We investigate the thermodynamical features of two Lorentzian signature backgrounds that arise in string theory as exact CFTs and possess more than two disconnected asymptotic regi…
Strings in Singular Time-Dependent Backgrounds
Amit Giveon, Eliezer Rabinovici, Amit Sever
We review the construction of time-dependent backgrounds with space-like singularities. We mainly consider exact CFT backgrounds. The algebraic and geometric aspects of these backg…
