Causality, analyticity and an IR obstruction to UV completion
Allan Adams,Nima Arkani-Hamed,Sergei Dubovsky,Sergei Dubovsky,Sergei Dubovsky,Alberto Nicolis,Riccardo Rattazzi +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that low-energy effective field theories described by local, Lorentz invariant Lagrangians, secretly exhibit macroscopic non-locality and cannot be embedded in any UV theory whose S-matrix satisfies canonical analyticity constraints.
Journal ArticleDOI
Don't Panic! Closed String Tachyons in ALE Spacetimes
TL;DR: In this article, closed string tachyons localized at the fixed points of non-compact nonsupersymmetric orbifolds are considered and the decay proceeds via an expanding shell of dilaton gradients and curvature which interpolates between two regions of distinct angular geometry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hot spacetimes for cold atoms
TL;DR: In this article, the authors constructed string theory duals of non-relativistic critical phenomena at finite temperature and density, and analyzed the thermodynamics of these black holes.

Journal ArticleDOI
Strongly correlated quantum fluids: ultracold quantum gases, quantum chromodynamic plasmas and holographic duality
TL;DR: In this paper, a review explores the connection between strongly correlated quantum field theories to weakly curved higher dimensional classical gravity, and the quark-gluon plasma and ultracold atomic Fermi gases, very dilute clouds of atomic gases confined in optical or magnetic traps.
