Hawking Effect in 2-D String Theory
Joshua J. Friess, Herman Verlinde
We use the matrix model to study the final state resulting from a coherent high energy pulse in 2-d string theory at large string coupling. We show that the outgoing signal produce…

The Giant Inflaton
Oliver DeWolfe, Shamit Kachru, Herman Verlinde
We investigate a new mechanism for realizing slow roll inflation in string theory, based on the dynamics of p anti-D3 branes in a class of mildly warped flux compactifications. Att…

Superstrings on AdS_2 and Superconformal Matrix Quantum Mechanics
Herman Verlinde
We construct a kappa-symmetric Green-Schwarz action for type IIA string theory on AdS_2. As a candidate holographic dual, we consider superconformal matrix quantum mechanics, given…
