Pseudo conformal field theories are theories with the same fusion rules, but with different modular matrix as some conventional field theory. One of the authors defined these and conjectured that, for bosonic systems, they can all be…

The Swampland Program aims to delineate the space of consistent low-energy effective field theories (EFTs) that admit a UV completion in quantum gravity from those that do not. In parallel, holography, and particularly the AdS/CFT…

We study solutions of type IIB supergravity which are SL(2,R) x SU(2) x U(1)^2 invariant deformations of AdS_3 x S^3 x K3 and take the form of products of self-dual spacelike warped AdS_3 and a deformed three-sphere. One of these…

In this work we elaborate on an extension of the AdS/CFT framework to a subclass of gravitational theories with vanishing cosmological constant. By building on earlier ideas, we construct a correspondence between Ricci-flat spacetimes…

By using the approach of non-commutative geometry, we study spinors and scalars on the two layers AdS$_{d+1}$ space. We have found that in the boundary of two layers AdS$_{d+1}$ space, by using the AdS/CFT correspondence, we have a…
