    • Dynamical Compactification from de Sitter Space 

      Carroll, Sean M.; Johnson, Matthew C.; Randall, Lisa (Springer, 2009)
      We show that \(D\)-dimensional de Sitter space is unstable to the nucleation of non-singular geometries containing spacetime regions with different numbers of macroscopic dimensions, leading to a dynamical mechanism of ...

    • Wilsonian Approach to Fluid/Gravity Duality 

      Bredberg, Irene; Keeler, Cynthia; Lysov, Vyacheslav; Strominger, Andrew E. (Springer, 2011)
      The problem of gravitational fluctuations confined inside a finite cutoff at radius \(r=r_c\) outside the horizon in a general class of black hole geometries is considered. Consistent boundary conditions at both the cutoff ...
