论非平衡态物理与弦论

On non-equilibrium physics and string theory

Nickolas Gray, Djordje Minic, Michel Pleimling

摘要:

在本文中,我们回顾了弦论和非平衡态物理之间的关系的基础上,我们以前发表的工作。首先,我们解释为什么量子引力理论和非平衡统计物理学应该首先联系起来。然后,我们提出了必要的背景,从最近的研究在非平衡物理。本文讨论了弦论与老化现象的关系,以及AdS/CFT对应与Jarzynski恒等式之间的联系。我们还讨论了充分发展湍流中的突现对称性和相应的非平衡定态。最后,我们概述了一个更大的图片之间的关系,非微扰量子引力和非平衡统计物理。这种关系可以理解为局域量子场论和临界现象的平衡统计物理之间著名的威尔逊关系的自然推广。根据这幅图,AdS/CFT对偶性只是非微扰量子引力和非平衡物理学之间更普遍联系的一个例子。在这篇评论的附录中,我们讨论了一种新的热力学和统计物理之间的互补性,这在黑洞互补性的背景下应该是重要的。

英文摘要:

In this article we review the relation between string theory and non-equilibrium physics based on our previously published work. First we explain why a theory of quantum gravity and non-equilibrium statistical physics should be related in the first place. Then we present the necessary background from the recent research in non-equilibrium physics. The review discusses the relationship of string theory and aging phenomena, as well as the connection between AdS/CFT correspondence and the Jarzynski identity. We also discuss the emergent symmetries in fully developed turbulence and the corresponding non-equilibrium stationary states. Finally we outline a larger picture regarding the relationship between non-perturbative quantum gravity and non-equilibrium statistical physics. This relationship can be understood as a natural generalization of the well-known Wilsonian relation between local quantum field theory and equilibrium statistical physics of critical phenomena. According to this picture the AdS/CFT duality is just an example of a more general connection between non-perturbative quantum gravity and non-equilibrium physics. In the appendix of this review we discuss a new kind of complementarity between thermodynamics and statistical physics which should be important in the context of black hole complementarity.
