Quasinormal modes and holography
read the original abstract
Quasinormal frequencies of electromagnetic and gravitational perturbations in asymptotically AdS spacetime can be identified with poles of the corresponding real-time Green's functions in a holographically dual finite temperature field theory. The quasinormal modes are defined for gauge-invariant quantities which obey incoming-wave boundary condition at the horizon and Dirichlet condition at the boundary. As an application, we explicitly find poles of retarded correlation functions of R-symmetry currents and the energy-momentum tensor in strongly coupled finite temperature N=4 supersymmetric SU(Nc) Yang-Mills theory in the limit of large Nc.

Quasinormal Modes of pp-Wave Spacetimes and Zero Temperature Dissipation
Scalar quasinormal modes on pp-wave spacetimes show zero-temperature dissipation for d >= 3 via an irregular singular point acting as absorber, with exact non-dissipative spectrum for d=2 and gapped modes proven by re...

Holographic D-brane constructions with dynamical gauge fields
Equips bottom-up holographic D-brane models with dynamical boundary gauge fields and shows that quasinormal mode dispersion relations in equilibrium and nonequilibrium states match hydrodynamics with dynamical U(1) symmetry.

Axial gravitational perturbations and echo-like signals of a hairy black hole from gravitational decoupling
Axial perturbations around a hairy black hole from gravitational decoupling produce echo-like gravitational-wave signals that arise dynamically from a double-peak trapping cavity in the effective potential.
