We initiate the study of holographic correlators for operators whose dimension scales with the central charge of the CFT. Differently from light correlators or probes, the insertion of any such maximally heavy operator changes the AdS…
Branching of bilayer membranes appear in the inverted hexagonal phase as well as in metastable states of the lamellar phase such as membrane fusion intermediates. A method for estimating the line tension of the branching junction is…
