    • Black Hole Determinants and Quasinormal Modes 

      Denef, Frederik; Hartnoll, Sean; Sachdev, Subir (Institute of Physics, 2010)
      We derive an expression for functional determinants in thermal spacetimes as a product over the corresponding quasinormal modes. As simple applications we give efficient computations of scalar determinants in thermal AdS, ...

    • Landscape of Superconducting Membranes 

      Denef, Frederik; Hartnoll, Sean (American Physical Society, 2009)
      The AdS/CFT correspondence may connect the landscape of string vacua and the `atomic landscape' of condensed matter physics. We study the stability of a landscape of IR fixed points of N=2 large N gauge theories in 2+1 ...

    • Quantum Oscillations and Black Hole Ringing 

      Denef, Frederik; Hartnoll, Sean; Sachdev, Subir (American Physical Society, 2009)
      We show that strongly coupled field theories with holographic gravity duals at finite charge density and low temperatures can undergo de Haas–van Alphen quantum oscillations as a function of an external magnetic field. ...
