• Applications of Holography 

      Bala Subramanian, P N
      This thesis consists of four parts. In the first part of the thesis, we investigate the phase structure of Einstein-Maxwell-Scalar system with a negative cosmological constant. For the conformally coupled scalar, an ...
    • Thermal one point functions in large $N$ vector models and holography 

      Kumar, Srijan
      This thesis develops analytic methods to evaluate thermal one point functions in holography and a class of conformal field theories(CFT) described by large $N$ vector models. For planar charged black holes in $AdS_{d+1}$ ...
