We argue, using the AdS/CFT correspondence, that the transient dynamics of the shear stress tensor in a strongly coupled $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM plasma is not described by relaxation-type, fluid dynamical equations: at long times the equations…

We demonstrate that the dynamics towards and within the Feigenbaum attractor combine to form a q-deformed statistical-mechanical construction. The rate at which ensemble trajectories converge to the attractor (and to the repellor) is…
We establish the existence of a far-from-equilibrium attractor in weakly-coupled gauge theory undergoing one-dimensional Bjorken expansion. We demonstrate that the resulting far-from-equilibrium evolution is insensitive to certain features…
