Gauge/String Duality, Hot QCD and Heavy Ion Collisions

The title immediately brings to mind a standard reference of almost the same title [1]. The authors are quick to point out the relationship between these two works: they are complementary. The purpose of this work is to explain what is known about a selection of exact solutions. As the authors state, it is often much easier to find a new solution of Einstein's equations than it is to understand it. Even at first glance it is very clear that great effort went into the production of this reference. The book is replete with beautifully detailed diagrams that reflect deep geometric intuition. In many parts of the text there are detailed calculations that are not readily available elsewhere. The book begins with a review of basic tools that allows the authors to set the notation. Then follows a discussion of Minkowski space with an emphasis on the conformal structure and applications such as simple cosmic strings. The next two chapters give an in-depth review of de Sitter space and then anti-de Sitter space. Both chapters contain a remarkable collection of useful diagrams. The standard model in cosmology these days is the ICDM model and whereas the chapter on the Friedmann-Lema?tre?Robertson?Walker space-times contains much useful information, I found the discussion of the currently popular a representation rather too brief. After a brief but interesting excursion into electrovacuum, the authors consider the Schwarzschild space-time. This chapter does mention the Swiss cheese model but the discussion is too brief and certainly dated. Space-times related to Schwarzschild are covered in some detail and include not only the addition of charge and the cosmological constant but also the addition of radiation (the Vaidya solution). Just prior to a discussion of the Kerr space-time, static axially symmetric space-times are reviewed. Here one can find a very interesting discussion of the Curzon?Chazy space-time. The chapter on rotating black holes is rather brief and, for example, does not contain reference to the insights found by Pretorius and Israel [2]. This is perhaps justifiable in view of the many specialized texts devoted to the Kerr space-time (e.g. [3]). The large clear diagrams that one becomes accustomed to in this book show off the Taub-NUT (and related) space-times in the next chapter. After perhaps a somewhat standard discussion of stationary axially symmetric space-times, there is a very informative discussion of accelerating black holes. For example, the global structure of the C-metric is considered in detail. This is followed by a brief discussion of solutions for uniformly accelerating particles. The discussion of the Pleba?ski-Demia?ski solutions contains two very useful flow charts that help to systematize two rather complex families of solutions. After a somewhat brief discussion of plane and pp-waves, the authors give an extensive discussion of the Kunt solutions. I note here that after this text was in production the importance of the Kunt space-times as regards the characterization of space-times by scalar curvature invariants was made clear [4]. The discussion of the Robinson-Trautman solutions that follows is extensive, containing, for example, details of the singularity structure and of the global structure. The final formal chapter in this text covers colliding plane waves. This contains, for example, discussions of the Khan?Penrose, Ferrari?Iba?ez and Chandrasekhar?Xanthopoulos solutions. The text ends with a `final miscellany'. This covers a number of interesting topics, but I found the discussion of the Lema?tre?Tolman solutions rather weak (compare e.g. [5]). The book has two quite useful appendices covering 2-spaces and 3-spaces of constant curvature. To conclude, I will quote from the dust jacket: `The book is an invaluable resource for both graduate students and academic researchers working in gravitational physics'. I highly recommend it.

Exact Space-Times in Einstein's General Relativity

Over the last decade, both experimental and theoretical advances have brought the need for strong coupling techniques in the analysis of deconfined QCD matter and heavy ion collisions to the forefront. As a consequence, a fruitful interplay has developed between analyses of strongly-coupled non-abelian plasmas via the gauge/string duality (also referred to as the AdS/CFT correspondence) and the phenomenology of heavy ion collisions. We review some of the main insights gained from this interplay to date. To establish a common language, we start with an introduction to heavy ion phenomenology and finite-temperature QCD, and a corresponding introduction to important concepts and techniques in the gauge/string duality. These introductory sections are written for nonspecialists, with the goal of bringing readers ranging from beginning graduate students to experienced practitioners of either QCD or gauge/string duality to the point that they understand enough about both fields that they can then appreciate their interplay in all appropriate contexts. We then review the current state-of-the art in the application of the duality to the description of the dynamics of strongly coupled plasmas, with emphases that include: its thermodynamic, hydrodynamic and transport properties; the way it both modifies the dynamics of, and is perturbed by, high-energy or heavy quarks passing through it; and the physics of quarkonium mesons within it. We seek throughout to stress the lessons that can be extracted from these computations for heavy ion physics as well as to discuss future directions and open problems for the field.

Double field theory (DFT) is a proposal to incorporate T-duality, a distinctive symmetry of string theory, as a symmetry of a field theory defined on a double configuration space. The aim of this review is to provide a pedagogical presentation of DFT and its applications. We first introduce some basic ideas on T-duality and supergravity in order to proceed to the construction of generalized diffeomorphisms and an invariant action on the double space. Steps towards the construction of a geometry on the double space are discussed. We then address generalized Scherk–Schwarz compactifications of DFT and their connection to gauged supergravity and flux compactifications. We also discuss U-duality extensions and present a brief parcours on worldsheet approaches to DFT. Finally, we provide a summary of other developments and applications that are not discussed in detail in the review.

We analyze the basic M2-M5 intersection in the supergravity regime using the blackfold approach. This approach allows us to recover the 1/4-BPS self-dual string soliton solution of Howe, Lambert and West as a three-funnel solution of an effective fivebrane worldvolume theory in a new regime, the regime of a large number of M2 and M5 branes. In addition, it allows us to discuss finite temperature effects for non-extremal self-dual string soliton solutions and wormhole solutions interpolating between stacks of M5 and anti-M5 branes. The purpose of this paper is to exhibit these solutions and their basic properties.
