Abstract

We compute coefficients of two-derivative terms in the hydrodynamic energy momentum tensor of a viscous fluid which has an AdS D dual with 3 ≤ D ≤ 7. For the case of D = 3 we obtain an exact AdS 3 black hole solution, valid to all orders in a derivative expansion, dual to a perfect fluid in 1+1 dimensions.
