We study bimetric gravity through the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence, especially, in the first order hdrodynamic limit. If we put pure general relativity as a bulk field, the boundary field theory is interpreted as fluid of the N = 4…

We discuss the AdS/CFT correspondence in which space-time emerges from an interacting theory of D-branes and open strings. These ideas have a historical continuity with QCD which is an interacting theory of quarks and gluons. In particular…
