T-duality equivalences beyond string theory
Jose D. Edelstein, Konstantinos Sfetsos, J. Anibal Sierra-Garcia +1
We examine a two parameter family of gravitational actions which contains higher-derivative terms. These are such that the entire action is invariant under corrected T-duality rule…
T-duality and high-derivative gravity theories: the BTZ black hole/string paradigm
Jose D. Edelstein, Konstantinos Sfetsos, J. Anibal Sierra-Garcia +1
We show that the temperature and entropy of a BTZ black hole are invariant under T-duality to next to leading order in , being the scale suppressing higher-…
On gravitational Phase Transitions, T-duality and Symmetry Breaking in AdS/CFT
J. Anibal Sierra-Garcia
In this thesis we study several problems in the context of AdS/CFT. The first is that of gravitational phase transitions between AdS and dS geometries in the Gauss-Bonnet theory of…
On AdS to dS transitions in higher-curvature gravity
Xian O. Camanho, Jose D. Edelstein, Andres Gomberoff +1
We study the possible existence of gravitational phase transitions from AdS to dS geometries in the context of higher-curvature gravities. We use Lanczos-Gauss-Bonnet (LGB) theory…
Compactifications of the Klebanov-Witten CFT and new backgrounds
Yago Bea, Jose D. Edelstein, Georgios Itsios +4
In this paper we find various new backgrounds in Type IIB, IIA and M-theory with an -factor. The solutions are smooth and preserve small amounts of SUSY. These new backgroun…
