Resúmenes:

Diego Hofman (U. Amsterdam, Holanda)
"Warped Conformal Field Theory and Non-AdS holography"

I'll discuss two-dimensional field theories that, while translationally
invariant, are not Lorentz invariant. They have left (but not right)
scaling symmetry. These theories have appeared in the context of AdS/CFT
as holographic duals of warped AdS backgrounds in Topologically Massive
Gravity, TsT deformations of exact string theory solutions and Kerr/CFT
duality. I'll show that, as in the usual CFT case, these global symmetries
extended to an infinite dimensional algebra. Furthermore, I'll explain
that these symmetries are enough to show the existence of a Cardy-like
formula for the asymptotic density of states. This purely field theoretic
result matches calculations of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of black
holes in the bulk dual, including Kerr Black Holes. Lastly I'll discuss
the background fields that couple to these theories and I'll propose a
framework for building a holographic dual systematically.

"Correcciones de \alpha' a la cuerda Heterotica en DFT"

Será mostrado como una extensión de la formulación de flujos generalizados
en DFT permite incluir todas las correcciones bosonicas de primer orden en
\alpha'.

Martin Kruczenski (Purdue U., USA)
"Wilson loops y superficies de área mínima en AdS/CFT"

De acuerdo a la correspondencia AdS/CFT ciertos Wilson loops en teorías de
gauge están relacionados a superficies de área mínima en el espacio
hiperbólico H3. Motivado por esto, en esta charla voy a considerar las
ecuaciones que determinan dichas superficies y sus propiedades de
integrabilidad. En particular voy a describir una fórmula para el área en
términos de la derivada de Schwarz del Wilson loop. Basado en el preprint
http://arxiv.org/pdf/1406.4945.pdf

"Universality in fast quantum quenches"

The study of quantum quenches involve following the evolution of a system
after quickly changing one of its couplings. Inspired by previous results
in holographic quenches, we study the time evolution of a conformal field
theory deformed by a relevant operator under a smooth but fast quantum
quench which brings it to the conformal point. We argue that when the
quench time scale δt is small compared to the scale set by the
relevant coupling, the expectation value of the quenched operator scales
universally as δg/δt^(2Δ−d) where δg is the
quench amplitude. We check this proposal in free field theories and
discuss around the implications of these results in the instantaneous
quench limit, broadly used in the literature.
