Via an appropriate field redefinition of the fermions, we find a set of conditions under which light cone gauge fixed world sheet theories of strings on two different backgrounds are related by a double Wick rotation. These conditions take…
String solitons in AdS_5 contain information of N=4 SUSY Yang-Mills theories on the boundary. Recent proposals for rotating string solitons reproduce the spectrum for anomalous dimensions of Wilson operators for the boundary theory. There…
String theory on $AdS_3$ has a solvable single-trace irrelevant deformation that is closely related to $T\bar T$. For one sign of the coupling, it leads to an asymptotically linear dilaton spacetime, and a corresponding Hagedorn spectrum.…
In this paper, we study the multi-spin string solutions in AdS_4*CP^3 and its \beta-deformation with real \beta. We give various explicit solutions after some general studies. Conserved charges are computed for these explicit solutions.
Aspects of string cosmology for critical and non-critical strings are discussed emphasizing the necessity to account for the dilaton dynamics for a proper incorporation of ``large - small" duality. This drastically modifies the intuition…
We discuss the role of singletons and logarithmic operators in AdS_3 string theory in the context of AdS_3/CFT_2 correspondence.
We compare quantum corrections to semiclassical spinning strings in AdS(5)xS(5) to one-loop anomalous dimensions in N=4 supersymmetric gauge theory. The latter are computed using the reduced (Landau-Lifshitz) sigma model and with the help…
We present a method for calculating solutions and corresponding central charges for backgrounds with AdS_3 and S^k factors in alpha'-exact fashion from the full tree-level low energy effective action of heterotic string theory. Three…
The conical defect solutions in higher-spin gauge theories on 2+1 dimensional space-times with AdS-asymptotics are conjectured to correspond to certain primary fields in the dual conformal field theory on the boundary. In this note we prove…
We explain how fractional spin and statistics are relevant to (super)strings in a three-dimensional (3D) Minkowski spacetime.
We study string theory on singular Z_N quotients of AdS_3, corresponding to spaces with conical defects. The spectrum is computed using the orbifold procedure. It is shown that spectral flow may be used to generate the twisted sectors. We…
The AdS_3 x S^3 string dynamics is described in a conformal gauge using the SL(2,R) and SU(2) group variables as the target space coordinates. A subclass of string surfaces with constant induced metric tensor on both AdS_3 and S^3…
The SL(2, R) WZW model of strings on an ADS3 background is investigated in the spirit of J.Maldacena's and H.Ooguri's approach (hep-th/0001053) and (hep-th/0005183). Choosing a standard, but most general three-variable parametrization of…
The Wess-Zumino term of the spinning string is constructed in terms of their anomalies using an extended field-antifield formalism. A new feature appears from a fact that the non-anomalous transformations do not form a sub-group. The…
We study a giant magnon and a spike solution for the string rotating on AdS(4) X CP**3 geometry. We consider rigid rotating fundamental string in the SU(2) X SU(2) sector inside the CP**3 and find out the general form of all the conserved…
We present an example of the string correspondence: a relation between two classical string solutions - one in Minkowski spacetime and another one in the AdS spacetime. The first solution describes a $2$d motion of the string with massive…
Based on the recently considered classical string configurations, in the framework of the semi-classical limit of the string/gauge theory correspondence, we describe a procedure for obtaining exact classical string solutions in general…
We study a Wess-Zumino-Witten model with target space AdS_3 x (S^3 x S^3 x S^1)/Z_2. This allows us to construct space-time N=3 superconformal theories. By combining left-, and right-moving parts through a GSO and a Z_2 projections, a new…
We present a derivation of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy from conformal field theories. In particular we consider a six-dimensional string configuration with background metric AdS_3 * S^3 near the horizon. In addition we introduce momentum…
We consider AdS_5 x S^5 string states with several large angular momenta along AdS_5 and S^5 directions which are dual to single-trace Super-Yang-Mills (SYM) operators built out of chiral combinations of scalars and covariant derivatives.…
