Title: "Ringdown in the SYK model"
Abstract: Thermal correlators in large N systems equilibrate at late times, but the precise late-time behavior is unknown away from holographic and free field limits. In this talk I will analyze this problem in the case of the SYK model away from the low-temperature limit. The basic technique is a resummation of perturbation theory which is reminiscent of the double cone construction. We will also discuss the interpretation of the result in terms of a dual stringy black hole.
