Conformal Field Theory, Geometry, and Entropy
Emil J. Martinec
In the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence, an explicit relation between the physical degrees of freedom of 2+1d gravity and the stress tensor of 1+1d conformal field theory is e…
AdS Dynamics from Conformal Field Theory
Tom Banks, Michael R. Douglas, Gary T. Horowitz +1
We explore the extent to which a local string theory dynamics in anti-de Sitter space can be determined from its proposed Conformal Field Theory (CFT) description. Free fields in t…
Matrix Models of AdS Gravity
Emil J. Martinec
We explore the connection between anti-deSitter supergravity and gauge theory, in the context of bound states of many D1 and D5 branes. The near-horizon supergravity descri…
Probing Matrix Black Holes
Miao Li, Emil Martinec
Black holes in matrix theory may consist of interacting clusters (correlated domains) which saturate the uncertainty principle. We show that this assumption qualitatively accounts…
