Adding Flavor to AdS4/CFT3 (2009)

Ammon, Martin, Erdmenger, Johanna, Meyer, Rene, O'Bannon, Andy, Wrase, Timm

Aharony, Bergman, Jafferis, and Maldacena have proposed that the low-energy description of multiple M2-branes at a C4/Zk singularity is a (2+1)-dimensional N=6 supersymmetric U(Nc) x U(Nc)...

Wolfgang Kummer and the Vienna School of Dilaton (Super-)Gravity (2008)

Bergamin, Luzi, Meyer, Rene

Wolfgang Kummer was well known for his passion for axial gauges and for the formulation of gravity in terms of Cartan variables. The combination of the two applied to two dimensional dilaton gravity...

Fayet-Iliopoulos Terms in AdS/CFT with Flavour (2008)

Ammon, Martin, Erdmenger, Johanna, Höhne, Stephan, Lust, Dieter, Meyer, Rene

We construct the gravity dual of a field theory with flavour in which there are Fayet-Iliopoulos (FI) terms present. For this purpose we turn on a constant Kalb-Ramond B field in four internal space...

Black Hole Thermodynamics and Hamilton-Jacobi Counterterm (2008)

Bergamin, Luzi, Grumiller, Daniel, McNees, Robert, Meyer, Rene

We review the construction of the universal Hamilton-Jacobi counterterm for dilaton gravity in two dimensions, derive the corresponding result in the Cartan formulation and elaborate further upon...

Two-Dimensional Quantum Gravity with Boundary (2007)

Bergamin, Luzi, Meyer, Rene

Using the recently found first order formulation of two-dimensional dilaton gravity with boundary, we perform a Hamiltonian analysis and subsequent path integral quantization. The importance of the...

AdS/CFT with Flavour in Electric and Magnetic Kalb-Ramond Fields (2007)

Erdmenger, Johanna, Meyer, Rene, Shock, Jonathan P.

We investigate gauge/gravity duals with flavour for which pure-gauge Kalb-Ramond B fields are turned on in the background, into which a D7 brane probe is embedded. First we consider the case of a...

Spacetime Emergence in the Robertson-Walker Universe from a Matrix model (2007)

Erdmenger, Johanna, Meyer, Rene, Park, Jeong-Hyuck

Using a novel, string theory-inspired formalism based on a Hamiltonian constraint, we obtain a conformal mechanical system for the spatially flat four-dimensional Robertson-Walker Universe. Depending...

Direct Observation of Polarization vs. Thickness Relation in Ultra-Thin Ferroelectric Films (2007)

Meyer, Rene, Vailionis, Arturas, McIntyre, Paul. C.

A reduction of polarization in ultra-thin ferroelectric films appears to be fundamental to ferroelectricity at the nanoscale. For the model system PbTiO3 on SrTiO3, we report observation of the...

Quantizing Two-Dimensional Dilaton Gravity with Fermions: The Vienna Way (2006)

Meyer, Rene

I review recent work on nonperturbative path integral quantization of two-dimensional dilaton gravity coupled to Dirac fermions, employing the "Vienna school" approach.

Classical and Quantum Dilaton Gravity in Two Dimensions with Fermions (2006)

Meyer, Rene

In this thesis the first order formulation of generalized dilaton gravities in two dimensions coupled to a Dirac fermion is considered. After a Hamiltonian analysis of the gauge symmetries and...

Quantum Dilaton Gravity in Two Dimensions with Fermionic Matter (2006)

Grumiller, Daniel, Meyer, Rene

Path integral quantization of generic two-dimensional dilaton gravity non-minimally coupled to a Dirac fermion is performed. After integrating out geometry exactly, perturbation theory is employed in...

Ramifications of Lineland (2006)

Grumiller, Daniel, Meyer, Rene

A non-technical overview on gravity in two dimensions is provided. Applications discussed in this work comprise 2D type 0A/0B string theory, Black Hole evaporation/thermodynamics, toy models for...

Constraints in two-dimensional Dilaton Gravity with Fermions (2005)

Meyer, Rene

Generalized Dilaton Theories in two dimensions coupled to Dirac fermions are subjected to constraint analysis. Three first class secondary constraints are found, corresponding to one local Lorentz...

1-D Simulation of the Electron Density Distribution in a Novel Nonvolatile Resistive Random Access Memory Device (2003)

Meyer, Rene, Kohlstedt, Hermann

The operation of a novel nonvolatile memory device based on a conductive ferroelectric/non-ferroelectric thin film multilayer stack is simulated numerically. The simulation involves the...
