image hydrodynamics Original Research Article

Using gauge theory/string theory correspondence certain universal aspects of the strongly coupled four-dimensional gauge theory hydrodynamics were established in . The analysis was performed in the framework of “membrane paradigm” approach to the fluctuations on the black brane stretched horizon. We confirm the universal result for the shear viscosity to the entropy density ratio for the strongly coupled image gauge theory from explicit computation of the finite temperature Minkowski-space correlation functions in the dual supergravity geometry.
