Analytical models of holographic thermalization

Abstract: AdS/CFT is one of the very few tools we have to study the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of strongly coupled systems. I present several different analytical models of gravitational collapse which are dual to the thermalization of a strongly coupled field theory. The time evolution of several different observables are computed in these backgrounds, such as two point functions and entaglement entropy.

Now open for applications: travel grants for doctoral students
