全息术对声速的一个限制

A bound on the speed of sound from holography

Aleksey Cherman, Thomas D. Cohen, Abhinav Nellore

摘要:

我们证明了,在高温下,在一类强耦合四维场论中,在一些温和的技术假设下,平方声速v_{s} ^{2}由1/3的共形值从上到下是有界的。这门课包括了由单一的标量场产生引力的场论。到目前为止,还没有已知的引力场论的例子,其中v_{s} ^{2}在能量有利的配置中超过1/3。我们猜想v_{s} ^{2}=1/3代表了一个广泛的四维理论的上限。

英文摘要:

We show that the squared speed of sound v_{s}^{2} is bounded from above at high temperatures by the conformal value of 1/3 in a class of strongly coupled four-dimensional field theories, given some mild technical assumptions. This class consists of field theories that have gravity duals sourced by a single scalar field. There are no known examples to date of field theories with gravity duals for which v_{s}^{2} exceeds 1/3 in energetically favored configurations. We conjecture that v_{s}^{2}=1/3 represents an upper bound for a broad class of four-dimensional theories.
