We investigate relations between spatial properties of the free energy and the radius of Gaussian curvature of the underlying curved lattice geometries. For this purpose we derive recurrence relations for the analysis of the free energy…

In the discussion of hadronization at or close to the freeze-out curve statistical (hadron resonance gas) models play an important role. In particular, in the charmonium sector, regeneration models are considered which rely on the fact that…

The perturbative expansion introduced by Zwanzig [R. W. Zwanzig, J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 22}, 1420 (1954)] expresses the difference in Helmholtz free energy between a system of interest and that of a reference system as series of cumulants…

In this work we use the Matrix Model of Strings in order to extract some non-perturbative information on how the Hagedorn critical temperature arises from eleven-dimensional physics. We study the thermal behavior of M and Matrix theories on…

We consider an exactly solvable worldsheet string theory in the background of a black brane with a gauge field flux. Holographically, such a system can be interpreted as a field theory with finite number of degrees of freedom at finite…

The thermodynamics of a gas of strings and D-branes near the Hagedorn transition is described by a coupled set of Boltzmann equations for weakly interacting open and closed long strings. The resulting distributions are dominated by the open…

We discuss interacting, closed, bosonic and superstrings in thermal equilibrium at temperatures close to the Hagedorn temperature in flat space. We calculate S-matrix elements of the strings at the Hagedorn temperature and use them to…

We study the high temperature (or small inverse temperature $\beta$) expansion of the free energy of double scaled SYK model. We find that this expansion is a convergent series with a finite radius of convergence. It turns out that the…

The Casimir energy for the transverse oscillations of a piecewise uniform closed string is calculated. The great adaptability of this string model with respect to various regularization methods is pointed out. We survey several…

We recast the study of a closed string gas in a toroidal container in the physical situation in which the single string density of states is independent of the volume because energy density is very high. This includes the gas for the well…

The dependence of the free energy of string theory on the temperature at T much larger than the Hagedorn temperature was found long ago by Atick and Witten and is $F(T)\sim \Lambda T^2$, where $\Lambda$ diverges because of a tachyonic…

We discuss recent results on fluctuations of conserved charges, and their approach to the hadron resonance gas at temperatures below the chiral crossover (Tc) as well as to a gas of free quarks at very high temperatures. We will focus on…

We extend the analysis of the recently obtained stringy cosmological solutions induced by thermal and quantum effects, once space-time supersymmetry is spontaneously broken by geometrical fluxes. Cases in which more than one modulus…

It has been conjectured that string theory in a pp-wave background is dual to a sector of N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. We study the Hagedorn transition for free strings in this background. We find that the free energy at the…

We consider the entanglement of closed bosonic strings intersecting the event horizon of a Rindler spacetime and, by using some simplified (rather semiclassical) arguments and some elements of the string field theory, we show the existence…

We study thermodynamics of black hole solutions in Lanczos-Lovelock AdS gravity in d+1 dimensions coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics and a Stueckelberg scalar field. This class of theories is used in the context of gauge/gravity duality…

We calculate the thermal partition functions of open strings on the S-brane backgrounds (the bouncing or rolling tachyon backgrounds) both in the bosonic and superstring cases. According to hep-th/0302146, we consider the discretized…

We propose a general formula for higher order corrections to the value of the Hagedorn temperature of a class of holographic confining gauge theories in the strong coupling expansion. Inspired by recent proposals in the literature, the…

We show that the high temperature limits of the heterotic E8xE8 and Spin(32)/Z2 strings and their Type I A/B superstring duals are finite and convergent. The Hagedorn growth of the degeneracies in the string mass level expansion is…

Fixed angle scattering at high energy in a string theory with boundaries satisfying Dirichlet conditions (Dirichlet strings) in $D=4$ is shown to have logarithmic dependence on energy, in addition to the power-like behavior known before.…
