We study chaotic motion of classical closed strings in the five-dimensional Anti-de Sitter (AdS) soliton spacetime. We first revisit classical chaos using a cohomogeneity-1 string ansatz. We then consider turbulent behaviors of the…

It is expected that when the string coupling is taken to be sufficiently small, a black hole turns into a bound state of self-gravitating fundamental strings. This state would be described by winding strings wrapping around the Euclidean…
The loop variable technique (for open strings in flat space) is a gauge invariant generalization of the renormalization group method for obtaining equations of motion. Unlike the beta functions, which are only proportional to the equations…
We find all the classical solutions (minimal surfaces) of open or closed strings in {\it any} two dimensional curved spacetime. As examples we consider the SL(2,R)/R two dimensional black hole, and any 4D black hole in the Schwarzschild…
We use light-like Wilson loops and the AdS/CFT correspondence to compute the anomalous dimensions of twist two operators in the cascading (Klebanov-Strassler) theory. The computation amounts to find a minimal surface in the UV region of the…
