Nonlinear fluid dynamics from gravity

TL;DR: In this article, a derivation of the nonlinear equations of boundary fluid dynamics from gravity from gravity is presented, with specific values for fluid parameters, and an explicit expression for the expansion of this fluid stress tensor including terms up to second order in the derivative expansion.

Quasinormal modes of black holes: From astrophysics to string theory

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of recent achievements on various aspects of black hole perturbations are discussed such as decoupling of variables in the perturbation equations, quasinormal modes (with special emphasis on various numerical and analytical methods of calculations), late-time tails, gravitational stability, anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory interpretation, and holographic superconductors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Viscosity, Black Holes, and Quantum Field Theory

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show how the hydrodynamic behavior of field theory is reflected in the low-momentum limit of correlation functions computed through a real-time AdS/CFT prescription, which they formulate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluid dynamics of R-charged black holes

TL;DR: In this article, the boundary theory transport coefficients associated with a derivative expansion of the energy momentum tensor and R-charge current up to second order were derived from the vorticity of the fluid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrodynamics from charged black branes

TL;DR: In this paper, the energy-momentum tensor and charge current for charged rotating black-brane configurations up to second order in the boundary derivative expansion were derived and shown to be covariant under boundary Weyl-transformations.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-de Sitter Space, Thermal Phase Transition, And Confinement in Gauge Theories

TL;DR: The correspondence between supergravity and string theory on AdS space and boundary conformal eld theory relates the thermodynamics of N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions to the thermodynamic properties of Schwarzschild black holes in Anti-de Sitter space as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Viscosity in strongly interacting quantum field theories from black hole physics

TL;DR: It is provided evidence that this value of shear viscosity to volume density of entropy may serve as a lower bound for a wide class of systems, thus suggesting that black hole horizons are dual to the most ideal fluids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Charged AdS black holes and catastrophic holography

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compute the properties of a class of charged black holes in anti-de Sitter space-time, in diverse dimensions and uncover rich thermodynamic phase structures for these systems, which display classic critical phenomena, including structures isomorphic to the van der Waals-Maxwell liquid-gas system.
