We study counter-terms of one- and two-point Green functions of some special operators in ${\cal N}=1$ SYM from their SUGRA duals from the consideration of AdS/CFT or gauge/gravity correspondence. We consider both the Maldacena-Nunez…

The Euclidean Anti-de Sitter (AdS) space provides a natural framework for studying boundary conformal field theory (BCFT). We analyze the conformal boundary conditions of the critical O$(N)$ model in $d=4-\epsilon$ dimensions using the…

For a nonlinear partial differential equation for (pseudo)scalars in the bulk of Euclidean AdS_4, arising from a truncation of 11-dimensional supergravity over AdS_4 x S^7/Z_k, we use math tools and in particular Adomian Decomposition…

We present an experiment which aim is to investigate the mechanical properties of a static granular assembly. The piling is an horizontal 3D granular layer confined in a box, we apply a localized extra force at the surface and the spatial…

One of the many remarkable properties of conformal field theory in two dimensions is its connection to algebraic geometry. Since every compact Riemann surface is a projective algebraic curve, many constructions of interest in physics (which…

We present results of direct numerical simulations of passive scalar advection and diffusion in turbulent rotating flows. Scaling laws and the development of anisotropy are studied in spectral space, and in real space using an axisymmetric…

We extend recent remarkable progress in the comparison of the dynamical energy spectrum of rotating closed strings in AdS_5xS^5 and the scaling weights of the corresponding non-near-BPS operators in planar N=4 supersymmetric gauge theory.…

It is shown that quantum one-loop potentials of the bulk fields in the Randall and Sundrum (RS) model may be immediately expressed in integrals with use of Barvinsky-Nesterov or equivalently Gelfand-Yaglom methods of calculation of quantum…

This paper studies AdS/CFT in its $p$-adic version (at the ``finite place") in the setting where the bulk geometry is made up of the Tate curve, a discrete quotient of the Bruhat-Tits tree. Generalizing a classic result due to Zabrodin, the…

We establish pointwise bounds for the Green function and consequent linearized stability for multidimensional planar relaxation shocks of general relaxation systems whose equilibrium model is scalar, under the necessary assumption of…

A common feature of tree-level holography is that a correlator in one theory can serve as a generating function for correlators in another theory with less continuous symmetry. This is the case for a family of 4d CFTs with eight…

For the 11-dimensional supergravity over AdS_4 x S^7/Z_k, beginning with a general 4-from ansatz and the main geometry unchanged, we get a tower of massive and tachyonic pseudoscalars. Indeed, the resultant equations can be assigned to the…

Asymptotic behavior of the anomalous dimensions of Wilson operators with high spin and twist is governed in planar N=4 SYM theory by the scaling function which coincides at strong coupling with the energy density of a two-dimensional…

The bulk S-Matrix can be given a non-perturbative definition in terms of the flat space limit of AdS/CFT. We show that the unitarity of the S-Matrix, ie the optical theorem, can be derived by studying the behavior of the OPE and the…

In this note, presented as a ``community service", followed by the PhD research of the author, we draw the relation between Casselman's theorem regarding the asymptotic behavior of matrix coefficients of reductive algebraic groups over…

We re-analyse the bulk reconstruction for a scalar field in Lorentzian AdS spacetime, both for the case of even and odd dimensions, for an extended range of conformal dimensions where the original HKLL reconstruction has to be modified. We…

In AdS, scalar fields with masses slightly above the Breitenlohner-Freedman bound admit a variety of possible boundary conditions which are reflected in the Lagrangian of the dual field theory. Generic small changes in the AdS boundary…

We introduce a matrix-operator formulation of the Anderson model in d=2. In a single slice, we can then derive an analogy between our model and a standard random matrices problem. This enables us to construct and control the Green function…

We show that the spectrum of the SYK model can be interpreted as that of a 3D scalar coupled to gravity. The scalar has a mass which is at the Breitenholer-Freedman bound of AdS$_2$, and subject to a delta function potential at the center…

We consider the type-IIB background generated by the strong-coupling limit of Nc D5 branes wrapped on S2, and focus our attention on a special class of solutions that exhibit walking behavior. We compute numerically the spectrum of scalar…
