We construct a general class of (small) $\mathcal{N}=(0,4)$ superconformal solutions in M-theory of the form AdS$_3\times S^3/\mathbb{Z}_k\times \text{CY}_2$, foliated over an interval. These solutions describe M-strings in M5-brane…
We consider strings with large spin in AdS_3xS^3xM with NS-NS background. We construct the string configurations as solutions of SL(2,R) WZW theory. We compute the relation between the space-time energy and spin, and show that the anomalous…
By applying the conformal SO(2,4) transformations to the folded rotating string configuration with two spins given by a certain limit from the helical string solution in AdS_3 x S^1, we construct new string solutions whose energy-spin…
In this PhD thesis we review some aspects of integrable models related to string backgrounds or their deformations. In the first part we develop methods to obtain exact results in the AdS3/CFT2 correspondence. We consider the AdS_3 x S^3 x…
We consider worldsheet string theory on $Z_N$ orbifolds of $AdS_3$ associated with conical singularities. If the orbifold action includes a similar twist of $S^3$, supersymmetry is preserved, and there is a moduli space of vacua arising…
We revisit the description of the space of asymptotically AdS3 solutions of pure gravity in three dimensions with a negative cosmological constant as a collection of coadjoint orbits of the Virasoro group. Each orbit corresponds to a set of…
We investigate string solutions to the classical equations of motion ("classical QCD strings") for a dual Ginzburg-Landau model corresponding to SU(3) gluodynamics in an abelian projection. For a certain relation between couplings of the…
We study segmented strings in flat space and in $AdS_3$. In flat space, these well known classical motions describe strings which at any instant of time are piecewise linear. In $AdS_3$, the worldsheet is composed of faces each of which is…
In the mapping from four-dimensional gauge theories to string theory in $AdS$ space, many features of gauge theory can be described by branes wrapped in different ways on $\S^5$, $\RP^5$, or subspaces thereof. These include a baryon vertex…
We consider string theory on AdS$_3$ $\times$ (S$^3$ $\times$ S$^3$ $\times$ S$^1)/\mathbb Z_2$, a background supporting $\mathcal N=(3,3)$ spacetime supersymmetry. We propose that string theory on this background is dual to the symmetric…
Various exact two-dimensional conformal field theories with AdS_{2d+1} target space are constructed. These models can be solved using bosonization techniques. Some examples are presented that can be used in building perturbative superstring…
The SO(4,2) isometries of AdS_5 are realized non-linearly on its horospherical coordinates (x^m,\rho). On the other hand, Penrose twistors have long been known to linearly realize these symmetries on 4-dimensional Minkowski space, the…
We considered the characteristic features of SU(3) partial dynamical symmetry in the interacting boson model framework to demonstrate the relevance of this technique in the nuclear spectroscopy of Dy (A=160) nucleus. The predictions of…
Circular strings pulsating in $AdS_3 \times S^3 \times T^4$ with mixed R-R and NS-NS three-form fluxes can be described by an integrable deformation of the one-dimensional Neumann-Rosochatius mechanical model. In this article we find a…
In this paper we present semiclassical computations of the splitting of folded spinning strings in AdS_3, which may be of interest in the context of AdS/CFT duality. We start with a classical closed string and assume that it can split on…
We discuss an integrable model of string on AdS$_3$xS$^3$xT$^4$ in a thermodynamical bath. We show that scattering of the excitations above equilibrium states has some novel features. Thermodynamics points to interesting deformation of the…
We address the novel structures arising in quantum and string integrable theories, as well as construct methods to obtain them and provide further analysis. Specifically, we implement the automorphic symmetries on periodic lattice systems…
We consider the classical solution describing a folded type IIA string in the background $AdS_4 \times \mathbb{CP}^3$. The string is spinning in $AdS$ and has angular momentum in $\mathbb{CP}^3$. In the 't Hooft limit, this is the gravity…
We discuss a general action for a particle in AdS$_3$ using the non-linear realization framework. Critical sectors are found and characterized in terms of the parameters appearing in the Lagrangian, generalizing the known results for…
