We consider pure D3-brane configurations of IIB string theory which lead to supersymmetric solutions containing an AdS$_3$ factor. They can provide new examples of AdS$_3$/CFT$_2$ examples on D3-branes whose worldvolume is partially…
The bottom-up approach of the AdS/CFT correspondence leads to the study of field equations in an $AdS_5$ background and from their solutions to the determination of the hadronic mass spectrum. We extend the study to the equations of $AdS_5$…
We find AdS5 solutions holographically dual to compactifications of six-dimensional N=(1,0) supersymmetric field theories on Riemann surfaces with punctures. We simplify a previous analysis of supersymmetric AdS5 IIA solutions, and with a…
In this thesis we give a pedagogical introduction to the construction of NS5-D6(-O6)-D8(-O8) brane setups in massive type IIA string theory and the six-dimensional $(1,0)$ SCFT's they engineer. After describing how to introduce the various…
We consider the four-point correlator of the stress-energy tensor multiplet in ${\cal N}=4$ SYM. In the planar limit and at large 't Hooft coupling such correlator is given by the corresponding holographic correlation function in IIB…
We revisit the four-point function of super gluons in $AdS_5 \times S^3$ in the spirit of the large $p$ formalism and show how the integrand of a generalised Mellin transform satisfies various non-trivial properties such as $U(1)$…
Type IIB S-folds of the form $\textrm{AdS}_{4} \times \textrm{S}^1 \times \textrm{S}^5$ have been shown to contain axion-like deformations parameterising flat directions in the 4D scalar potential and corresponding to marginal deformations…
In this paper we investigate the properties of the putative 5d fixed point theory that should be dual, through the holographic correspondence, to the new supersymmetric AdS(6) solution constructed in Lozano et al. This solution is the…
We study the glueball spectrum in the supersymmetric and non-supersymmetric 4D non-commutative dipole gauge theory from the holographic description. We adopt the semiclassical WKB approximation to solve the dilaton and antisymmetric tensor…
We discuss AdS$_2\times S^3\times{\text{CY}}_2\times I_{\rho}$ solutions to massive Type IIA supergravity with 4 Poincar\'e supersymmetries. We propose explicit dual quiver quantum mechanics built out of D0 and D4 colour branes coupled to…
We implement D7 flavor branes in AdS-sliced coordinates on $AdS_5\times S^5$ with the ansatz that the brane fluctuates only in the warped ($\mu$) direction in this slicing, which is particularly appropriate for studying the Janus solution.…
We present a direct derivation of the two-point correlation function of the vector current in the soft wall model by using the AdS/CFT dictionary. The resulting correlator is exactly the same as the one previously obtained from dispersion…
In this thesis we present some computations made in both sides of the AdS/CFT holographic correspondence using the integrability of both theories. Regarding the string theory side, this thesis is focused in the computation of the dispersion…
We study the role of higher derivative terms (Riemann curvature squared ones) in thermodynamics of SCFTs via AdS/CFT correspondence. Using IIB string effective action (d5 AdS gravity) with such HD terms deduced from heterotic string via…
One of the main topics in the modern String Theory are the AdS/CFT dualities. Proving such conjectures is extremely difficult since the gauge and string theory perturbative regimes do not overlap. In this perspective, the discovery of…
The spectrum of glueballs in 2+1 dimensions is calculated within an extended class of Isgur-Paton flux tube models and is compared to lattice calculations of the low-lying SU(N) glueball mass spectra. Our modifications of the model include…
