De Sitter Space and Entanglement

TL;DR: The notion of entanglement in de Sitter space arises naturally from the non-trivial Lorentzian geometry of the spacetime manifold, which consists of two disconnected boundaries and a causally disconnected interior as mentioned in this paper.

HOLOGRAPHIC ENTROPY AND BRANE FRW DYNAMICS FROM AdS BLACK HOLE IN d5 HIGHER DERIVATIVE GRAVITY

TL;DR: In this paper, higher derivative bulk gravity (without Riemann tensor square term) admits AdS-Schwarzschild black hole as an exact solution, and induced brane geometry on such background is open, flat or closed FRW radiation dominated universe.

- 11 May 1987 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the contribution of the charge degrees of freedom is negligible and the spin degrees are the same as in the one-dimensional isotropic Heisenberg model.

Noncommutative Spectral Invariants and Black Hole Entropy

TL;DR: In this article, an intrinsic entropy associated with a local conformal net by the coefficients in the expansion of the logarithm of the trace of the heat kernel semigroup was considered.

On a Canonical Quantization of 3D Anti de Sitter Pure Gravity

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors perform a canonical quantization of pure gravity on AdS 3 using as a technical tool its equivalence at the classical level with a Chern-Simons theory with gauge group.

Phase Transitions and Critical Phenomena

TL;DR: The field of phase transitions and critical phenomena continues to be active in research, producing a steady stream of interesting and fruitful results as discussed by the authors, and the major aim of this serial is to provide review articles that can serve as standard references for research workers in the field.

Infinite Conformal Symmetry in Two-Dimensional Quantum Field Theory

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an investigation of the massless, two-dimentional, interacting field theories and their invariance under an infinite-dimensional group of conformal transformations.

The Heterotic String

TL;DR: A new type of superstring theory is constructed as a chiral combination of the closed D=26 bosonic and D=10 fermionic strings, which is supersymmetric, Lorentz invariant, and free of tachyons.

Finite size scaling analysis of Ising model block distribution functions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the distribution function P L ( s ) of the local order parameters in finite blocks of linear dimension L for Ising lattices of dimension d = 2,3 and 4.

Conformal invariance, the central charge, and universal finite-size amplitudes at criticality.

TL;DR: It is shown that for conformally invariant two-dimensional systems, the amplitude of the finite-size corrections to the free energy of an infinitely long strip of width L at criticality is linearly related to the conformal anomaly number c, for various boundary conditions.
