SUMMARY:The string/black hole transition in anti de Sitter space
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Erez Urbach\, Weizmann Institute of Science \nTitle: The string/black hole transition in anti de Sitter space \nAbstract: String stars\, or Horowitz-Polchinski solutions\, are string theory saddles with normalizable condensates of thermal-winding strings. In the past\, string stars were offered as a possible description of stringy (Euclidean) black holes in asymptotically flat spacetime\, close to the Hagedorn temperature. I will discuss the thermodynamic properties of string stars in asymptotically (thermal) anti-de Sitter background (including AdS3 with NS-NS flux)\, their possible connection to small black holes in AdS\, and their implications for holography. I will also present new “winding-string gas” saddles for confining holographic backgrounds such as the Witten model\, and their relation to the deconfined phase of 3+1 pure Yang-Mills.
