The Arrow of Time, Black Holes, and Quantum Mixing of Large N Yang-Mills Theories
Speaker(s): Guido Festuccia - MIT
Abstract: Quantum gravity in an AdS space-time is described by an SU(N) Yang-Mills theory on a sphere, a bounded many-body system. We argue that in the high temperature phase the theory is intrinsically non-perturbative in the large N limit. At any nonzero value of the \'t Hooft coupling $lambda$, an exponent... read more
