Holographic Thermalization from Kerr-AdS

Understand

We study thermalization of a strongly coupled theory holographically dual to a thin shell of null dust with non-zero angular momentum collapsing to Kerr-AdS.

• We calculate thermalization time for two point correlation functions.
• It happens that in the 3-dimensional case the thermalization time is just proportional to the distance between points where the correlator is evaluated.
• This is a very surprising and rather unexpected generalization of the same relation in the case of zero momentum.
