    We study the maximally supersymmetric plane wave matrix model (the BMN model) at finite temperature, T, and locate the leading phase boundary as the temperature is lowered.

    I will discuss the application of spectral analysis, i.e. analysis of the spectrum and eigenvectors of the Laplace-Beltrami operator, in the setting of the Monte-Carlo approach to Quantum Gravity called Causal Dynamical Triangulations (CDT). In particular, applying the method to the analysis of spatial slices shows that the different phases can be characterized by a new order parameter related...

    A massive experimental effort will be devoted in the coming years to the physics of QCD at high energy density and/or high baryon density. Understanding this physics, especially out of equilibrium, is an important theoretical challenge. I will discuss how holography can help us address this challenge. Topics covered will include the far-from-equilibrium dynamics near the QCD critical point and...

    We discuss our numerical work on the IKKT matrix model, which was conjectured to be a nonperturbative formulation of superstring theory. In particular, we focus on its Euclidean version, which is speculated to undergo an SSB of SO(10) rotational symmetry, corresponding to the dynamical generation of 4d space-time, due to the effects of the complex fermion determinant. While this issue is...
