We study the thermodynamic properties and phase structures of topological black holes in Einstein theory with a Gauss-Bonnet term and a negative cosmological constant. The event horizon of these topological black holes can be a hypersurface with positive, zero, or negative constant curvature. When the horizon is a zero curvature hypersurface, the thermodynamic properties of black holes are completely the same as those of black holes without the Gauss-Bonnet term, although the two black hole solutions are quite different. When the horizon is a negative constant curvature hypersurface, the thermodynamic properties of the Gauss-Bonnet black holes are qualitatively similar to those of black holes without the Gauss-Bonnet term. When the event horizon is a hypersurface with positive constant curvature, we find that the thermodynamic properties and phase structures of black holes drastically depend on the spacetime dimension d and the coefficient of the Gauss-Bonnet term: when dgreater than or equal to6, the properties of black holes are also qualitatively similar to the case without the Gauss-Bonnet term, but when d=5, a new phase of locally stable small blacks holes occurs under a critical value of the Gauss-Bonnet coefficient, and beyond the critical value, the black holes are always thermodynamically stable. However, the locally stable small black hole is not globally preferred; instead a thermal anti-de Sitter space is globally preferred. We find that there is a minimal horizon radius, below which the Hawking-Page phase transition will not occur since for these black holes the thermal anti-de Sitter space is always globally preferred.read more

Viscosity Bound Violation in Higher Derivative Gravity
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the shear viscosity to entropy density ratio in conformal field theories dual to Einstein gravity with curvature square corrections, and they find that the value of the Shear V2R can be adjusted to any positive value from infinity down to zero.

First law of thermodynamics and Friedmann equations of Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe
TL;DR: In this paper, the first law of thermodynamics is applied to the apparent horizon of a Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe and assuming the geometric entropy given by a quarter of the horizon area, the Friedmann equations describing the dynamics of the universe with any spatial curvature are derived.

Localized shocks
TL;DR: In this article, the products of precursors of spatially local operators are studied using chaotic spin-chain numerics and gauge/gravity duality, and a single precursor fills a spatial region that grows linearly in a tensor network.

P-V criticality in the extended phase space of Gauss-Bonnet black holes in AdS space
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the P −V criticality and phase transition in the extended phase space of charged Gauss-Bonnet black holes in anti-de Sitter space, where the cosmological constant appears as a dynamical pressure of the system and its conjugate quantity is the thermodynamic volume of the black holes.

The Large N limit of superconformal field theories and supergravity
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the large-N limits of certain conformal field theories in various dimensions include in their Hilbert space a sector describing supergravityon the product of anti-de Sitter spacetimes, spheres, and other compact manifolds.

Gauge Theory Correlators from Non-Critical String Theory
TL;DR: In this paper, a boundary of the anti-deSitter space analogous to a cut-off on the Liouville coordinate of the two-dimensional string theory is introduced to obtain certain Green's functions in 3+1-dimensional N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with a large number of colors via non-critical string theory.

Anti de sitter space and holography
TL;DR: In this article, a correspondence between conformal field theory observables and those of supergravity was proposed, where correlation functions in conformal fields are given by the dependence of the supergravity action on the asymptotic behavior at infinity.
