Objective Long-term goal: Understand the far-from-equilibrium behavior of QFTs. HERE: A good starting point: a QFT plasma undergoing (spatial) expansion. Simplifying assumption #1: Put the QFT in an expanding FLRW background: ds 2 = dt 2 + a(t) 2 dω 2 k Even a locally static fluid in FLRW has a nonzero expansion rate since spacetime itself expands, u µ = (1, 0, 0, 0) µ u µ = 3ȧ(t) a(t) Giancarlo Camilo (IFUSP) Expanding plasmas from AdS black holes 2 / 15
Statement of the problem Simplifying assumption #2: Approach the problem using holography, i.e., consider strongly coupled CFT with known AdS gravity dual The Problem: Find slicing of static bulk metrics such that AdS bdry = FLRW Giancarlo Camilo (IFUSP) Expanding plasmas from AdS black holes 3 / 15
Begin with generic AdS 5 BH written in standard (t, r) coordinates: ds 2 = f(r)dt 2 + f(r) 1 dr 2 + Σ(r) 2 dω 2 k f and Σ arbitrary except for f(r) r2 L 2, Σ(r) r L for r (AdS asymptotics) f(r h ) = 0 (event horizon) k = +1, 0, 1 all allowed Eventual supporting matter fields are OK (scalar hair, charge, etc) Giancarlo Camilo (IFUSP) Expanding plasmas from AdS black holes 4 / 15
ds 2 = f(r)dt 2 + f(r) 1 dr 2 + Σ(r) 2 dω 2 k STEP 1: Go to EF coords (v, r), i.e., dv = dt + f(r) 1 dr STEP 2: Introduce fake time dependence by redefining v as dv = dv a(v ) STEP 3: Redefine radial coordinate as r = Ra(V ) so as to put the metric back in EF-like coordinates (V, R): [ ] f(ra) ds 2 = 2dV dr a 2 2Rȧ dv 2 + Σ(Ra) 2 dω 2 k a Giancarlo Camilo (IFUSP) Expanding plasmas from AdS black holes 5 / 15

Nonequilibrium entropy density of the dual expanding plasma can be associated with the BH entropy of the apparent horizon s BH = Σ(R ha) 3 4G 5 ds For conformal plasmas: dv = 0, i.e., no entropy production by the plasma (no dissipation due to ζ = 0) For nonconformal plasmas: ds dv > 0 due to dissipative effects.

Conclusions and Outlook New slicing of generic AdS BHs such that AdS = FLRW. EF coordinates make the task trivial Applicable to a variety of solutions, supported by external fields or not New arena to explore nonequilibrium dynamics of CFTs analytically Quenches (time-dependent couplings) arise naturally when analyzing BHs supported by matter fields: Gauge field A µ dx µ (r) µdv + A µ dx µ (Ra) µ a dv + Scalar hair φ(r) Jr d + φ(ra) Ja d R d + Cosmology?.
