Using the off-shell formulation for general N = 2 supergravity-matter systems developed in arXiv:0905.0063, we propose a construction to generate a restricted chiral superfield from any real weight-zero projective multiplet L. One can…

We implement the conformal bootstrap for N=4 superconformal field theories in four dimensions. Consistency of the four-point function of the stress-energy tensor multiplet imposes significant upper bounds for the scaling dimensions of…

Within the framework of (2,0) anti-de Sitter (AdS) supersymmetry in three dimensions, we propose a multiplet of higher-spin currents. Making use of this supercurrent, we construct two off-shell gauge formulations for a massless multiplet of…

We construct a new $N=4$ non-semisimple gauged supergravity in three dimensions with $E_{6(2)}/SU(6)\times SU(2)$ scalar manifold and $SO(4)\ltimes \mathbf{T}^6$ gauge group. Depending on the values of the gauge coupling constants, the…

In this paper we discuss the dynamics of conformal field theories on anti-de Sitter space, focussing on the special case of the N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on AdS_4. We argue that the choice of boundary conditions, in particular…

Generalizing previous results for $N=0$ and $N=1$, we analyze $N=2$ JT supergravity on asymptotically AdS${}_2$ spaces with arbitrary topology and show that this theory of gravity is dual, in a holographic sense, to a certain random matrix…

Conformal field theory of the D1/D5 system and superstrings on $AdS_3\times S^3\times T^4$ is studied with particular attention to the world-sheet fields corresponding to the $T^4$ part. A solution to the spacetime N=4 superconformal…

Correlators of a certain one-dimensional superconformal field theory dual to hypermultiplets in AdS$_2\times$S$^2$ exhibit a hidden four-dimensional conformal symmetry which allows one to repackage all tree-level 4-point correlators into a…

In this paper we review the rigid limit of N=2 supergravity coupled to vector and hypermultiplets. In particular we show how the respective scalar field spaces reduce to their global counterparts. In the hypermultiplet sector we focus on…
