# Holographic Signatures of Critical Collapse

## TL;DR

This paper investigates critical gravitational collapse in Anti-de Sitter space and shows how key features like self-similarity and naked singularities can be detected through holographic stress tensor analysis.

## Contribution

It introduces a method to extract critical collapse signatures from holographic stress tensors in AdS, linking gravitational phenomena to boundary field theory observables.

## Key findings

- Echoing period and critical exponent can be determined holographically.
- Signatures of naked singularity are observable in the stress tensor.
- Holographic approach connects gravitational critical phenomena with field theory observables.

## Abstract

Critical phenomena in gravitational collapse exhibit the universal features of self-similarity, critical scaling, and the appearance of a naked singularity. We study critical collapse in AdS, focusing on holographic field theory observables. We demonstrate that the echoing period, critical exponent, and signatures of the naked singularity can all be extracted from the holographic stress tensor.
