Our interest is to find the difference of the behavior between black holes with three different topologies. These black holes have spherical, hyperbolic and toroidal structures. We study in this paper the behavior of a probe D5-branes in…
Following the work of [1], we consider six- and seven-dimensional gauged supergravity coupled to a vector multiplet on an ansatz of $AdS_{4,5}\times{M}_2$, respectively, where $M_2$ is a two-dimensional surface with a Killing vector. We…

In AdS_n x S^m threaded by N-units of Ramond-Ramond flux, the dynamics of a Dm-brane wrapped on S^{m-1} embedded in S^m is investigated. Under the condition that flux of the dual gauge field on the D-brane worldvolume is quantized…
We describe the observed light-baryon spectrum by extending superconformal quantum mechanics to the light front and its embedding in AdS space. This procedure uniquely determines the confinement potential for arbitrary half-integer spin. To…
