Using the path integral approach, we discuss the correlation functions of the $SL(2,\bfC)/SU(2)$ WZW model, which corresponds to the string theory on the Euclidean $AdS_3$. We obtain the two- and three-point functions for generic primary…

We revisit the semiclassical computation of the fluctuation spectrum around different circular string solutions in AdS_5xS^5 and AdS_4xCP^3, starting from the Green-Schwarz action. It has been known that the results for these frequencies…

We show that any covariant scattering amplitude of the $W_3$ string will contain, as part of its integrand, a factor that obeys the differential equations satisfied by an Ising model correlation function. This factor can thus be identified…

It has been demonstrated that the non-Abelian solitonic vortex string in four-dimensional (4D) $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric QCD (SQCD) with gauge group U(2) and $N_f=4$ quark hypermultiplets behaves as a critical superstring. This string…

According to the Axionic String Anstaz (ASA) confining flux tubes in pure gluodynamics are in the same equivalence class as a new family of integrable non-critical strings, called axionic strings. In addition to translational modes, axionic…

Motivated by recent studies related to integrability of string motion in various backgrounds via analytical and numerical procedures, we discuss these procedures for a well known integrable string background $(AdS_5\times S^5)_{\eta}$. We…

We find the anomalous dimension and the conserved charges of an R-charged string pulsating on AdS_5. The analysis is performed both on the gauge and string side, where we find agreement at the one-loop level. Furthermore, the solution is…

In this work, we calculate correlators of long strings on AdS$_3\times$S$^3\times$T$^4$ with pure NS-NS flux. We first construct physical vertex operators that correspond to long strings. Due to the GSO projection, they depend on the parity…

We revisit two related phenomena in $\mathrm{AdS}_3$ string theory backgrounds. At pure NS-NS flux, the spectrum contains a continuum of long strings which can escape to the boundary of $\mathrm{AdS}_3$ at a finite cost of energy. Related…

The equations of motion and boundary conditions for the fluctuations around a classical open string, in a curved space-time with torsion, are considered in compact and world-sheet covariant form. The rigidly rotating open strings in Anti de…

The exact general evolution of circular strings in $2+1$ dimensional de Sitter spacetime is described closely and completely in terms of elliptic functions. The evolution depends on a constant parameter $b$, related to the string energy,…

In this thesis we investigate quantum aspects of the Green-Schwarz superstring in various AdS backgrounds relevant for the AdS/CFT correspondence, providing several examples of perturbative computations in the corresponding integrable…

We consider the 1-loop correction to the energy of folded spinning string solution in the AdS_3 part of AdS_5 x S^5. The classical string solution is expressed in terms of elliptic functions so an explicit computation of the corresponding…

One of the most important problems in any conformal field theory is the calculation of three-point functions of primary operators. In this paper we provide explicit examples of correlators with two scalar operators in $\,{\cal N}=4$…

We construct a general class of solutions for a classical string in AdS_3 spacetime. The construction is based on a Pohlmeyer type reduction, with the sinh-Gordon model providing the general N-soliton solutions. The corresponding exact…

We show that certain excitations of the F-string/D3-brane system can be shown to obey Neumann boundary conditions by considering Born-Infeld dynamics of the F-string (viewed as a 3-brane cylindrically wrapped on an $S_2$). Excitations which…

We analyze a diffuse interface model for multi-phase flows of $N$ incompressible, viscous Newtonian fluids with different densities. In the case of a bounded and sufficiently smooth domain existence of weak solutions in two and three space…

I study a relativistic open string coupling through its endpoints to a plane wave with arbitrary temporal profile. The string's transverse oscillations respond linearly to the external field. This makes it possible to solve the classical…

We present a procedure for computing gauge-invariant scattering amplitudes in the $W_3$ string, and use it to calculate three-point and four-point functions. We show that non-vanishing scattering amplitudes necessarily involve external…

The paper examines correspondence among correlation functions of symmetric orbifold and string theory on AdS3 described by sl(2) Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten (WZNW) model. We start by writing down n-point function of twist operators in the…
