Holography and colliding gravitational shock waves in asymptotically AdS spacetime
Nov, 2010Citations per year
Abstract: (arXiv)
Using holography, we study the collision of planar shock waves in strongly coupled N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. This requires the numerical solution of a dual gravitational initial value problem in asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetime.Note:
