SEMINARIOS DEL IFLP y DEL DEPARTAMENTO
Martes 22 de abril, 11hs - AULA CHICA
TÍTULO: "Higher curvature corrections and AdS/CFT"
EXPOSITOR: José Edelstein
Universidad de Santiago de Compostela, España
Resumen:I will discuss some features of higher curvature gravity in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence. I will mostly focus on the case of Lovelock theory as a toy model for ghost-free higher curvature gravity. It admits a family of AdS vacua, most (but not all) of them supporting black holes, that display interesting features such as a generalized variant of the Hawking-Page phase transition. I will comment on various consistency constraints coming from AdS/CFT that seem to play an important role in this framework.
