abstract

We study causality violation in holographic hydrodynamics in the gauge theory/string theory correspondence, focussing on Gauss-Bonnet gravity. The value of the Gauss-Bonnet coupling is related to the difference between the central charges of the dual conformal gauge theory. We show that, when this difference is sufficiently large, causality is violated both in the second-order truncated theory of hydrodynamics, as well as in the exact theory. We find that the latter provides more stringent constraints, which match precisely those appearing in the CFT analysis of Hofman and Maldacena.

Instability of 5D Gauss-Bonnet black branes

hep-th · 2026-06-17 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0

Gauss-Bonnet black branes in five-dimensional AdS gravity are unstable when the Gauss-Bonnet coupling falls outside the conformal collider bounds, with unstable modes connected to boundary causality-violating modes by phase rotation of complex boundary momentum.
