For charged black hole, within the grand canonical ensemble, the decay rate from thermal AdS to the black hole at a fixed high temperature increases with the chemical potential. We check that this feature is well captured by a phenomenological matrix model expected to describe its strongly coupled dual. This comparison is made by explicitly constructing the kink and bounce solutions around the de-confinement transition and evaluating the matrix model effective potential on the solutions.

Dual gravitational charges have been recently computed from the Holst term in tetrad variables using covariant phase space methods. We highlight that they originate from an exact 3-form in the tetrad symplectic potential that has no analogue in metric variables. Hence there exists a choice of the tetrad symplectic potential that sets the dual charges to zero. This observation relies on the ambiguity of the covariant phase space methods. To shed more light on the dual contributions, we use the Kosmann variation to compute (quasi-local) Hamiltonian charges for arbitrary diffeomorphisms. We obtain a formula that illustrates comprehensively why the dual contribution to the Hamiltonian charges: (i) vanishes for exact isometries and asymptotic symmetries at spatial infinity; (ii) persists for asymptotic symmetries at future null infinity, in addition to the usual BMS contribution. Finally, we point out that dual gravitational charges can be equally derived using the Barnich-Brandt prescription based on cohomological methods, and that the same considerations on asymptotic symmetries apply.
The generic feature of non-conformal fields in Poincare patch of de Sitter space is the presence of large IR loop corrections even for massive fields. Moreover, in global de Sitter there are loop IR divergences for the massive fields. Naive analytic continuation from de Sitter to Anti-de-Sitter might lead one to conclude that something similar should happen in the latter space as well. However, we show that there are no large IR effects in the one-loop two-point functions in the Poincare patch of Anti-de-Sitter space even for the zero mass minimally coupled scalar fields. As well there are neither large IR effects nor IR divergences in global Anti-de-Sitter space even for the zero mass.
We propose an effective model of strongly coupled gauge theory at finite temperature on $R^3$ in the presence of an infrared cutoff. It is constructed by considering the theory on $S^3$ with an infrared cutoff and then taking the size of the $S^3$ to infinity while keeping the cutoff fixed. This model reproduces various qualitative features expected from its gravity dual.
It is well known that Kasner geometry with space-like singularity can be extended to bulk AdS-like geometry, furthermore one can study field theory on this Kasner space via its gravity dual. In this paper, we show that there exists a Kasner-like geometry with timelike singularity for which one can construct a dual gravity description. We then study various extremal surfaces including space-like geodesics in the dual gravity description. Finally, we compute correlators of highly massive operators in the boundary field theory with a geodesic approximation.
According to the t Hooft-Susskind holography, the black hole entropy,$S_mathrm{BH}$, is carried by the chaotic microscopic degrees of freedom, which live in the near horizon region and have a Hilbert space of states of finite dimension $d=exp(S_mathrm{BH})$. In previous work we have proposed that the near horizon geometry, when the microscopic degrees of freedom can be resolved, can be described by the AdS$_2[mathbb{Z}_N]$ discrete, finite and random geometry, where $Npropto S_mathrm{BH}$. It has been constructed by purely arithmetic and group theoretical methods in order to explain, in a direct way, the finiteness of the entropy, $S_mathrm{BH}$. What has been left as an open problem is how the smooth AdS$_2$ geometry can be recovered, in the limit when $Ntoinfty$. In the present article we solve this problem, by showing that the discrete and finite AdS$_2[mathbb{Z}_N]$ geometry can be embedded in a family of finite geometries, AdS$_2^M[mathbb{Z}_N]$, where $M$ is another integer. This family can be constructed by an appropriate toroidal compactification and discretization of the ambient $(2+1)$-dimensional Minkowski space-time. In this construction $N$ and $M$ can be understood as infrared and ultraviolet cutoffs respectively. The above construction enables us to obtain the continuum limit of the AdS$_2^M[mathbb{Z}_N]$ discrete and finite geometry, by taking both $N$ and $M$ to infinity in a specific correlated way, following a reverse process: Firstly, by recovering the continuous, toroidally compactified, AdS$_2[mathbb{Z}_N]$ geometry by removing the ultraviolet cutoff; secondly, by removing the infrared cutoff in a specific decompactification limit, while keeping the radius of AdS$_2$ finite. It is in this way that we recover the standard non-compact AdS$_2$ continuum space-time. This method can be applied directly to higher-dimensional AdS spacetimes.
