Under general assumptions, we show that a gravitational theory in d+1 dimensions admitting an AdS solution can be reduced to a d-dimensional theory containing a Lifshitz solution with dynamical exponent z=2. Working in a d=4, N=2…
Quantum field theories in AdS generate conformal correlation functions on the boundary, and in the limit where AdS is nearly flat one should be able to extract an S-matrix from such correlators. We discuss a particularly simple…
In this paper, the classification in [Lin,Wei,Ye] of solutions to Toda systems of type $A$ with singular sources is generalized to Toda systems of types $C$ and $B$. Like in the $A$ case, the solution space is shown to be parametrized by…
The massive phase of two-layer integrable systems is studied by means of RSOS restrictions of affine Toda theories. A general classification of all possible integrable perturbations of coupled minimal models is pursued by an analysis of the…
A quantum field theory on Anti-de-Sitter space can be constructed from a conformal field theory on its boundary Minkowski space by an inversion of the holographic mapping. To do this the conformal field theory must satisfy certain…
We prove convergence rates of linear sampling recovery of functions in abstract Bochner spaces satisfying weighted summability of their generalized polynomial chaos expansion coefficients. The underlying algorithm is a function-valued…
A conjecture of Kalai asserts that for $d\geq 4$, the affine type of a prime simplicial $d$-polytope $P$ can be reconstructed from the space of affine $2$-stresses of $P$. We prove this conjecture for all $d\geq 5$. We also prove the…
We consider a general class of asymptotically locally AdS_5 solutions of minimal gauged supergravity, that are dual to superconformal field theories on curved backgrounds S^1 x M_3 preserving two supercharges. We demonstrate that standard…
In Part I we gave a polynomial growth lower-bound for the number of nodal domains of a Hecke-Maass cuspform in a compact part of the modular surface, assuming a Lindel\"of hypothesis. That was a consequence of a topological argument and…
A key idea in convex optimization theory is to use well-structured affine functions to approximate general functions, leading to impactful developments in conjugate functions and convex duality theory. This raises the question: what are the…
We relate across dimensions BPS attractors of black strings and black holes of various topology in gauged supergravities with nontrivial scalar potential. The attractors are of the form AdS$_{2, 3} \times \Sigma^{2, 3}$ in 4, 5, and 6…
Theories in 5 dimensions with minimal supersymmetry are studied for domain-wall solutions and in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence. The scalar manifold is a product of a very special real manifold and a quaternionic-Kaehler…
The conformal affine Toda model coupled to the matter field (CATM) is obtained through a classical reduction of the $sl(2)^{(1)}$ affine two-loop WZNW model. After spontaneously broken the conformal symmetry by means of BRST analysis, we…
We revisit the minimal tension ($k=1$) string theory on $\text{AdS}_3\times\text{S}^3\times\mathbb{T}^4$. We propose a new free-field description of the worldsheet theory and show how localization of string amplitudes emerges from the path…
We first present a short review of general supersymmetric compactifications in string and M-theory using the language of G-structures and intrinsic torsion. We then summarize recent work on the generic conditions for supersymmetric AdS_5…
We describe three analytic classes of infinitely many AdS_d supersymmetric solutions of massive IIA supergravity, for d = 7, 5, 4. The three classes are related by simple universal maps. For example, the AdS_7 x M_3 solutions (where M_3 is…
A construction of integrable hamiltonian systems associated with different graded realizations of untwisted loop algebras is proposed. Such systems have the form of Euler - Arnold equations on orbits of loop algebras. The proof of…
In this paper we interpret the hidden symmetry of the moduli space of IIB superstring on $AdS_{5}\times S^{5}$ in terms of the chiral embedding in $AdS_{5}$, which turns to be the $\mathbb{CP}^{3}$ conformal affine Toda model. We review how…
We show that closed string solutions in the bulk of AdS space are related by T-duality to solutions representing an open string ending at the boundary of AdS. By combining the limit in which a closed string becomes small with a large boost,…
We study the properties of the loosely trapped surface (LTS) and the dynamically transversely trapping surface (DTTS) in Einstein-Maxwell systems. These concepts of surfaces were proposed by the four of the present authors in order to…
