Ágrip:

I will report exact calculations of holographic retarded (causal) correlation function away from equilibrium in states driven from one thermal equilibrium to another by a homogeneous energy injection. Our calculations reveal universal features of thermalization of the retarded propagator. Furthermore, I will discuss how the measurement of the non-equilibrium retarded propagator (possible by techniques such as pump-probe spectroscopy) enables us to learn a lot about the dual gravity description (i.e. the microscopic theory) by establishing novel connections between quantum information content of non-equilibrium density matrices and the classical dynamics of the apparent and event horizons in the dual geometries.
