We study Carrollian amplitudes of massless scalars in (1+2) Minkowski space. Using the prescription recently shown by Alday et al. [JHEP 03 (2025) 158] originally designed for the AdS4 Witten diagrams, we show that AdS3 Witten diagrams in…
We propose a feasible experimental scheme to realize a three-dimensional chiral topological insulator with cold fermionic atoms in an optical lattice, which is characterized by an integer topological invariant distinct from the conventional…
We develop the idea of an effective conformal theory describing the low-lying spectrum of the dilatation operator in a CFT. Such an effective theory is useful when the spectrum contains a hierarchy in the dimension of operators, and a small…
We discuss dilatonic gravity (bulk theory) from the point of view of (generalized) AdS/CFT correspondence. Self-consistent dilatonic background is considered. It may be understood as two boundaries space where AdS boundary appears as…
We discuss AdS$_2$ quantum gravity from an unconventional perspective that emphasizes bulk geometry. In our approach, AdS$_2$ has no boundary, there are no divergences that require renormalization, and the dilaton of JT-gravity can be…
We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a Conformal Field Theory to have a description in terms of a perturbative Effective Field Theory in AdS. The first two conditions are well-known: the existence of a perturbative `1/N'…
We study the behavior of Dirac fermions in the presence of electron correlation in a nonsymmorphic Kondo lattice system, CeAgSb2 employing high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and first-principles calculations.…
We present a systematic study of holographic correlators in a vast array of SCFTs with non-maximal superconformal symmetry. These theories include 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ SCFTs from D3-branes near F-theory singularities, 5d Seiberg exceptional…
The Anti-de Sitter/Conformal Field Theory correspondence (AdS/CFT) is one of the most significant findings in theoretical physics and forms the basis of this thesis. Although highly powerful, the main limitation of AdS/CFT is that AdS does…
We argue that the N=1 higher-spin theory on AdS4 is holographically dual to the N=1 supersymmetric critical O(N) vector model in three dimensions. This appears to be a special form of the AdS/CFT correspondence in which both regular and…
The AdS/CFT correspondence has significantly impacted the study of strongly coupled systems, providing insights into various condensed matter phenomena through its holographic duality. This paper introduces an alternative approach to the…
The low-energy Hamiltonian used to describe the dynamics of the helical Dirac fermions on the surface of a topological insulator contains a subdominant non-relativistic (Schr\"odinger) contribution. This term can have an important effect on…
The flat pp-wave background geometry has been realized as a particular Penrose limit of AdS_5 x S^5. It describes a string that has been infinitely boosted along an equatorial null geodesic in the S^5 subspace. The string worldsheet…
We discuss the holographic implications of torsional degrees of freedom in the context of AdS4/CFT3, emphasizing in particular their physical interpretation as carriers of the non-trivial gravitational magnetic field, i.e. the part of the…
We argue that any non-gravitational holographic dual to asymptotically flat string theory in $d$-dimensions naturally resides at spacelike infinity. Since spacelike infinity can be resovled as a $(d-1)$-dimensional timelike hyperboloid…
In a recent paper Klebanov and Witten (hep-th/9905104) proposed to formulate the AdS/CFT correspondence principle by taking an "irregular boundary condition" for a scalar field. In this paper we generalize this idea to the case of spinor…
We consider the Mielke-Baekler model of three-dimensional AdS gravity with torsion, which has gravitational and translational Chern-Simons terms in addition to the usual Einstein-Hilbert action with cosmological constant. It is shown that…
The dualities that map hard-to-solve, interacting theories to free, non-interacting ones often trigger a deeper understanding of the systems to which they apply. However, simplifying assumptions such as Lorentz invariance, low…
We revisit the construction in four-dimensional gauged $Spin(4)$ supergravity of the holographic duals to topologically twisted three-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=4$ field theories. Our focus in this paper is to highlight some subtleties…
We present two examples of non-trivial field theories which are scale invariant, but not conformally invariant. This is done by placing certain field theories, which are conformally invariant in flat space, onto curved backgrounds of a…
