Some of the recent important developments in understanding string/ gauge dualities are based on the idea of highly symmetric motion of ``string solitons'' in $AdS_5\times S^5$ geometry originally suggested by Gubser, Klebanov and Polyakov.…

We analyze the folded spinning string in AdS_4 x P^3 with spin S in AdS_4 and angular momentum J in P^3. We calculate the one-loop correction to its energy in the scaling limit of both ln S and J large with their ratio kept fixed. This…

We consider the low energy effective action corresponding to the 1-loop, planar, dilatation operator in the scalar sector of N=4 SU(N) SYM theory. For a general class of non-holomorphic ``long'' operators, of bare dimension L>>1, it is a…

We consider the AdS_5 x S^5 superstring in the light-cone gauge adapted to a massless geodesic in AdS5 in the Poincare patch. The resulting action has a relatively simple structure which makes it a natural starting point for various…

A general class of rotating closed string solutions in AdS_5 x S^5 is shown to be described by a Neumann-Rosochatius one-dimensional integrable system. The latter represents an oscillator on a sphere or a hyperboloid with an additional…

Using the quantum string Bethe ansatz we derive the one-loop energy of a folded string rotating with angular momenta (S,J) in AdS_3 x S^1 inside AdS_5 x S^5 in the limit 1 << J << S, z=\lambda^(1/2) log(S/J) /(\pi J) fixed. The one-loop…

We compute some normalized structure constants in the $\eta$-deformed $AdS_5\times S^5$ in the framework of the semiclassical approach. This is done for the cases when the "heavy" string states are finite-size giant magnons carrying one…

We discuss some new simple closed bosonic string solutions in AdS_5 x S^5 that may be of interest in the context of AdS/CFT duality. In the first part of this work we consider solutions with two spins (S_1, S_2) in AdS_5. Starting from the…

We find an infinite number of conserved currents and charges in the semiclassical limit $\lambda \to \infty$ of string theory in AdS$_5 \times S^5$ and remark on their relevance to conserved charges in the dual gauge theory. We establish a…

In this paper, we study the semi-classical strings in AdS_4*CP^3 spacetime. We construct various kinds of string solutions, including the point-like, circular, folded and pulsating strings. For the circular and folded strings, we figure out…

We study multi-charged rotating string states on Type IIB regular backgrounds dual to confining SU(N) gauge theories with (softly broken) {\cal N}=1 supersymmetry, in the infra red regime. After exhibiting the classical energy/charge…
