Shear viscosity from black holes in generalized scalar-tensor theories in arbitrary dimensions
- PhysicsPhysical Review D
- 2022
In higher dimensions, we study Degenerate-Higher-Order-Scalar-Tensor theories and we derive solutions that resemble the Schwarzschild Anti-de Sitter black holes. We compute their thermodynamic…
On SUGRA description of boost-invariant conformal plasma at strong coupling

We study string theory duals of the expanding boost invariant conformal gauge theory plasmas at strong coupling. The dual supergravity background is constructed as an asymptotic late-time expansion,…

We review recent progress in applying the AdS/CFT correspondence to finite-temperature field theory. In particular, we show how the hydrodynamic behavior of field theory is reflected in the…
Complexity of four-dimensional hairy anti-de-Sitter black holes with a rotating string and shear viscosity in generalized scalar–tensor theories
- PhysicsThe European Physical Journal C

In four dimensions, we consider a generalized scalar–tensor theory where the coupling functions only depend on the kinetic term of the scalar field. For this model, we obtain a set of hairy…
