We compute a variety of two and three-point real-time correlation functions for a strongly-coupled non-relativistic field theory. We focus on the theory conjectured to be dual to the Schr\"{o}dinger-invariant gravitational spacetime…

We explore how to detect the large quantum fluctuations in the throat of a near-extremal black hole, where the dynamics are governed by the Schwarzian theory. To this end, we scatter a low-frequency wave of a massless, minimal scalar off…

Brownian motion of a heavy charged particle at zero and small (but finite) temperature is studied in presence of finite density. We are primarily interested in the dynamics at (near) zero temperature which is holographically described by…

Linear field perturbations of a black hole are described by the Green function of the wave equation that they obey. After Fourier decomposing the Green function, its two natural contributions are given by poles (quasinormal modes) and a…
