We study the `string star' saddle, also known as the Horowitz-Polchinski solution, in the middle of d+1 dimensional thermal AdS space. We show that there's a regime of temperatures in which the saddle is very similar to the flat space…
Classical string actions in AdS(3) and dS(3) can be connected to the sinh-Gordon and cosh-Gordon equations through Pohlmeyer reduction. We show that the problem of constructing a classical string solution with a given static or…

In this paper we explore a solenoid configuration involving a magnetic universe solution embedded in an empty Anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime. This requires a non-trivial surface current at the interface between the two spacetimes which can…
