The coupling of $N=1$ SCFT of type $(4m,2)$ to two-dimensional supergravity can be formulated non-perturbatively in terms of a discrete super-eigenvalue model proposed by Alvarez-Gaum\'e, et al. We derive the superloop equations that…
We describe a procedure for determining the generalised scaling functions $f_n(g)$ at all the values of the coupling constant. These functions describe the high spin contribution to the anomalous dimension of large twist operators (in the…
We study a refined large spin limit for twist operators in the sl(2) sector of AdS/CFT. We derive a novel non-perturbative equation for the generalized two-parameter scaling function associated to this limit, and analyze it at weak…
We consider the world surface in AdS_5 that ends on two intersecting null lines at the boundary. The corresponding string partition function describes the expectation value of the Wilson line with a null cusp in dual large N maximally…
We compute the 1-loop partition function for strings in $AdS_4\times\mathbb{CP}^3$, whose worldsheets end along a line with small cusp angles in the boundary of AdS. We obtain these 1-loop results in terms of the vacuum energy for on-shell…
Using numerical simulation based on a density-functional equation for a trapped Fermi super-fluid valid along the BCS-unitarity crossover, we establish robust scaling over many orders of magnitude in the observables of the system as a…

We derive a general formula for two-loop counterterms in Effective Field Theories (EFTs) using a geometric approach. This formula allows the two-loop results of our previous paper to be applied to a wide range of theories. The two-loop…
The analogue of the loop-loop correlation function in 2d gravity for the planar connected $\phi^3$ diagrams is calculated. It is shown that although the discretized formulas are different the scaling limit is the same as for the loop-loop…

We compute the Schroedinger functional (SF) for the case of pure SU(3) gauge theory at two-loop order in lattice perturbation theory. This allows us to extract the three-loop beta-function in the SF-scheme. These results are required to…
To study the convergence of the loop expansion at the high-temperature electroweak phase transition, we calculate the 2-loop effective potential of the 3d SU(2)-Higgs model in a general covariant gauge. We find that the loop expansion…
We compute 1-loop correction E_1 to the energy of folded string in AdS_5 x S^5 (carrying spin S in AdS_5 and momentum J in S^5) using ``long string'' approximation in which S >> J >> 1. According to AdS/CFT E_1 should represent the first…
In this paper I review some old and new works on the computation of two-loop 4-particle amplitude in superstring theory. I also present the proof by Iengo, showing the vanishing of the term related to the two-loop correction to the $R^4$…
We consider folded spinning strings in AdS_5xS^5 (with one spin component S in AdS_5 and J in S^5) corresponding to the Tr(D^S Z^J) operators in the sl(2) sector of the N=4 SYM theory in the special scaling limit in which both the string…
