In a system with a Bjorken-flow (BF), considering the inside of a BF as a subsystem for the reason explained in the body text, we compute entanglement entropy appearing in our side holographically . BF consists of many concentrically…

We construct a $\mathcal N$-function for Lovelock theories of gravity, which yields a holographic $c$-function in domain-wall backgrounds, and seemingly generalizes the concept for black hole geometries. A flow equation equates the…
In de Sitter (dS) holography, both the dS/CFT correspondence and the dS static patch holography have been extensively studied. In these two holographic frameworks, the dual field theories are defined on spacelike and timelike boundaries,…
We re-examine holographic versions of the c-theorem and entanglement entropy in the context of higher curvature gravity and the AdS/CFT correspondence. We select the gravity theories by tuning the gravitational couplings to eliminate…
Holographic RG flows can be better understood with the help of radially conserved charges. It was shown by various authors that the bulk gauge and diffeomorphism symmetries lead to the conservation of the zero mode of the holographic U(1)…

We examine the proposal to make quantitative comparisons between the strongly coupled quark-gluon plasma and holographic descriptions of conformal field theory. In this note, we calculate corrections to certain transport coefficients…

In a companion paper (Jonsson and Westman, Class. Quantum Grav. 23 (2006) 61), a generalization of optical geometry, assuming a non-shearing reference congruence, is discussed. Here we illustrate that this formalism can be applied to a…
We study the application of AdS/CFT duality to longitudinal boost invariant Bjorken expansion of QCD matter produced in ultrarelativistic heavy ion collisions. As the exact (1+4)-dimensional bulk solutions for the (1+3)-dimensional boundary…
We provide a holographic prescription to compute real-time thermal correlators with arbitrary operator ordering. In field theory, these correlation functions are captured by a multi-fold Schwinger-Keldysh time contour. We propose a…
We consider two-dimensional geometries flowing away from an asymptotically AdS$_2$ spacetime. Macroscopically, flow geometries and their thermodynamic properties are studied from the perspective of dilaton-gravity models. We present a…
We study the velocity statistics distribution of an external heavy particle in holographic fluids. We argue that when the dual supergravity background has a finite temperature horizon the velocity statistics goes generically as $1/v$,…
