Correspondences in higher-dimensional gravity

In this thesis we have made progress on the study of higher dimensional gravity by focusing on the properties of black holes and branes and their dynamics. We have developed two main projects: • provide several maps between different spacetimes • determine the hydrodynamical behavior of fluids dual...
