A Comparative Note on Tunneling in AdS and in its Boundary Matrix Dual    [PDF]

For charged black hole, within the grand canonical ensemble, the decay rate
from thermal AdS to the black hole at a fixed high temperature increases with
the chemical potential. We check that this feature is well captured by a
phenomenological matrix model expected to describe its strongly coupled dual.
This comparison is made by explicitly constructing the kink and bounce
solutions around the de-confinement transition and evaluating the matrix model
effective potential on the solutions.
