Insight Into

We review the status of recent investigations on validating the gauge-gravity duality conjecture through numerical simulations of strongly coupled maximally supersymmetric thermal gauge theories. In the simplest setting, the gauge-gravity duality connects systems of D0-branes and black hole geometries at finite temperature to maximally supersymmetric gauged quantum mechanics at the same temperature. Recent simulations show that nonperturbative gauge theory results give excellent agreement with the quantum gravity predictions, thus proving strong evidence for the validity of the duality conjecture and more insight into quantum black holes and gravity.

We use the gauge/gravity duality to investigate various properties of strongly coupled gauge theories, which we interpret as models for the quark-gluon plasma (QGP). In particular, we use variants of the D3/D7 setup as an implementation of the top-down approach of connecting string theory with phenomenologically relevant gauge theories. We focus on the effects of finite temperature and finite density on fundamental matter in the holographic quark-gluon plasma, which we model as theN=2hypermultiplet in addition to theN=4gauge multiplet of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. We use a setup in which we can describe the holographic plasma at finite temperature and either baryon or isospin density and investigate the properties of the system from three different viewpoints. (i) We study meson spectra. Our observations at finite temperature and particle density are in qualitative agreement with phenomenological models and experimental observations. They agree with previous publications in the according limits. (ii) We study the temperature and density dependence of transport properties of fundamental matter in the QGP. In particular, we obtain diffusion coefficients. Furthermore, in a kinetic model we estimate the effects of the coupling strength on meson diffusion and therewith equilibration processes in the QGP. (iii) We observe the effects of finite temperature and density on the phase structure of fundamental matter in the holographic QGP. We trace out the phase transition lines of different phases in the phase diagram.

Microscopic Origin

We perform a direct test of the gauge/gravity duality by studying one-dimensional U (N) gauge theory with 16 supercharges at finite temperature using Monte Carlo simulation. In the 't Hooft large-N limit and in the strong coupling limit, the model is expected to have a dual gravity description in terms of the near-extremal black 0-brane solution in ten-dimensional type IIA supergravity. Our results provide the first example, in which the microscopic origin of the black hole thermodynamics is accounted for by solving explicitly the strongly coupled dynamics of the open strings attached to the D-branes.

Abstract We initiate a study of finite temperature transport in gapless and strongly coupled quantum theories with charge and dipole conservation using gauge-gravity duality. In a model with non-dynamical gravity, the bulk fields of our model include a suitable mixed-rank tensor which encodes the boundary multipole symmetry. We describe how such a theory can arise at low energies in a theory with a covariant bulk action. Studying response functions at zero density, we find that charge relaxes via a fourth-order subdiffusion equation, consistent with a recently-developed field-theoretic framework.

Gravity Duals

We review the holographic duals of gauge theories with eight supercharges obtained by adding very few flavors to pure supersymmetric Yang–Mills with 16 supercharges. Assuming a brane-probe limit, the gravity duals are engineered in terms of probe branes (the so-called flavor brane) in the background of the color branes. Both types of branes intersect on a given subspace in which the matter is confined. The gauge theory dual is thus the corresponding flavoring of the gauge theory with 16 supercharges. Those theories have in general a nontrivial phase structure; which is also captured in a beautiful way by the gravity dual. Along the lines of the gauge/gravity duality, we review also some of the results on the meson spectrum in the different phases of the theories.

We discuss the AdS/CFT correspondence in which spacetime emerges from an interacting theory of D-branes and open strings. These ideas have a historical continuity with QCD which is an interacting theory of quarks and gluons. In particular, we review the classic case of D3 branes and the non-conformal D1 brane system. We outline by some illustrative examples the calculations that are enabled in a strongly coupled gauge theory by correspondence with dynamical horizons in semiclassical gravity in one higher dimension. We also discuss implications of the gauge fluid/gravity correspondence for the information paradox of black hole physics.

Abstract Gauge-gravity duality is arguably our best hope for understanding quantum gravity. Considerable progress has been made in relating scattering amplitudes in certain gravity theories to those in gauge theories — a correspondence dubbed the double copy. Recently, double copies have also been realized in a classical setting, as maps between exact solutions of gauge theories and gravity. We present here a novel map between a certain class of real, exact solutions of Einstein’s equations and self-dual solutions of the flat-space vacuum Maxwell equations. This map, which we call the Newman-Penrose map, is well-defined even for non-vacuum, non-stationary spacetimes, providing a systematic framework for exploring gravity solutions in the context of the double copy that have not been previously studied in this setting. To illustrate this, we present here the Newman- Penrose map for the Schwarzschild and Kerr black holes, and Kinnersley’s photon rocket.
