Event details

Holographic momentum relaxation in the large D limit

In the context of the gauge/gravity duality, momentum relaxation can be incorporated in a simple way by considering bulk matter fields that enjoy a global symmetry. In some cases, we can write down the relevant black hole solutions in an arbitrary dimension which makes it possible to study the limit in which the number of dimensions goes to infinity. We will consider a simple example of this kind and obtain certain physical properties analytically in an expansion of inverse powers of the number of space-time dimensions.
