Finite coupling corrections to holographic predictions for hot QCD

摘要: Finite 't Hooft coupling corrections to multiple physical observables in strongly coupled $N=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma are examined, an attempt assess the stability of expansion inverse powers $\lambda$. Observables considered include thermodynamic quantities, transport coefficients, and quasinormal mode frequencies. Although large $\lambda$ expansions for frequencies notably less well behaved than other we find that a partial resummation higher order can significantly reduce sensitivity results value
