Description
In my talk, I will discuss various topics that will revolve
around the subject of hydrodynamics. The first part of the
talk will begin with a general discussion of hydrodynamics, its
breakdown at weak coupling and the connection between
hydrodynamics and many-body chaos. In particular, I will
argue that at strong coupling, the holographic butterfly effect
can be understood in terms of a hydrodynamic sound mode
instability. In the second part of the talk, I will discuss a
recent reformulation of magnetohydrodynamics and a
construction of its holographic dual by using the concept of
generalised global symmetries.
