First Order Born-Infeld Hydrodynamics via Gauge/Gravity Duality
نویسنده
چکیده
By performing a derivative expansion on a class of boosted Born-Infeld-AdS5 black branes, we study the hydrodynamics of the dual field theory in the spirit of AdS/CFT correspondence. We determine the fluid dynamical stress-energy tensor to first order, and find that the ratio of the shear viscosity to entropy density conforms to the universal value of 1/4π to all orders of the inverse of the Born-Infeld parameter.

متن کاملSelf-Duality of a Topologically Massive Born-Infeld Theory
We consider self-duality in a 2 + 1 dimensional gauge theory containing both the Born-Infeld and the Chern-Simons terms. We introduce a Born-Infeld inspired generalization of the Proca term and show that the corresponding model is equivalent to the Born-Infeld-Chern-Simons model. email: [email protected] email: [email protected] 1 Many years ago Townsend et. al. studied self-duality in gauge...
متن کاملManifest Duality in Born-infeld Theory
Born-Infeld theory is formulated using an infinite set of gauge fields, along the lines of McClain, Wu and Yu. In this formulation electromagnetic duality is generated by a fully local functional. The resulting consistency problems are analyzed and the formulation is shown to be consistent. Email address: [email protected]. Supported by NFR.
متن کاملNon-Linear Electrodynamics in Curved Backgrounds
We study non-linear electrodynamics in curved space from the viewpoint of dualities. After establishing the existence of a topological bound for self-dual configurations of Born-Infeld field in curved space, we check that the energy-momentum tensor vanishes. These properties are shown to hold for general duality-invariant non-linear electrodynamics. We give the dimensional reduction of Born-Inf...
متن کامل1 Remarks on T - duality for open strings
This contribution gives in σ-model language a short review of recent work on T-duality for open strings in the presence of abelian or non-abelian gauge fields. Furthermore, it adds a critical discussion of the relation between RG β-functions and the Born-Infeld action in the case of a string coupled to a D-brane. This contribution gives in σ-model language a short review of recent work on T-dua...
