String theory and supersymmetry are theoretical ideas that go beyond the standard model of particle physics and show promise for unifying all forces. After a brief introduction to supersymmetry, we discuss the prospects for its experimental…
Riemannian Killing conserved currents are used to find the energy spectra of classical spinning particles moving around a spinning string in Einstein-Cartan (EC) theory of gravity. It is shown that a continuos spectrum is obtained for…

This PhD thesis explores the similarities between integrable spin chains and quantum field theories, such as Super Yang Mills. We first study integrable spin chains and build explicitly a polynomial "Backlund flow" and polynomial…
We study spin models underlying the non-planar dynamics of ${\cal N}=4$ SYM gauge theory. In particular, we derive the non-local spin chain Hamiltonian generating dilatations in the gauge theory at leading order in $g_{\rm YM}^2 N$ but…
We consider the integrable open-chain transfer matrix corresponding to a Y=0 brane at one boundary, and a Y_theta=0 brane (rotated with the respect to the former by an angle theta) at the other boundary. We determine the exact eigenvalues…
We study chiral algebras in the $\bar{Q}$-cohomology of two dimensional SYK models with extended supersymmetry. In a special limit discovered in arXiv:1805.09325, we are able to construct explicitly a "vertical" single-particle higher-spin…
It is known for ten years that self-dual Yang-Mills theory is the effective field theory of the open N=2 string in 2+2 dimensional spacetime. We uncover an infinite set of abelian rigid string symmetries, corresponding to the symmetries and…
The existence two S-dual descriptions of (N,1) string bound states suggests that the strong coupling behaviour of electric flux lines in large N 2D SYM theory has a dual description in terms of weakly coupled IIB string theory. In support…
We investigate entanglement of spin pairs in alternating open spin chains in the equilibrium state in an external magnetic field. We calculate the reduced density matrix of spin pairs and estimate the concurrence with Wootter's criteria.…
We study the semiclassical spectrum of bosonic string theory on AdS_3 x S^1 in the limit of large AdS angular momentum. At leading semiclassical order, this is a subsector of the IIB superstring on AdS_5 x S^5. The theory includes strings…
We generalize various existing higher-loop Bethe ansaetze for simple sectors of the integrable long-range dynamic spin chain describing planar N=4 Super Yang-Mills Theory to the full psu(2,2|4) symmetry and, asymptotically, to arbitrary…
In this Thesis we address the issue of consistent higher-spin interactions taking String Theory as a "theoretical laboratory". We thus arrive at a simple expression encompassing all three-point amplitudes for states belonging to the first…
Electromagnetic plane waves provide examples of time-dependent open string backgrounds free of $\alpha'$ corrections. The solvable case of open strings in a quadrupolar wave front, analogous to pp-waves for closed strings, is discussed. In…
Existence of open string field theory solutions describing configurations of multiple space-filling D-branes has been a subject of numerous speculations for quite some time. In this talk we present some new results giving further support to…
String breaking is a central dynamical process in theories featuring confinement, where a string connecting two charges decays at the expense of the creation of new particle-antiparticle pairs. Here, we show that this process can also be…
In this work, we give a general class of solutions of the spinning cosmic string in Einstein's theory of gravity. After treating same problem in Einstein Cartan (EC) theory of gravity, the exact solution satisfying both exterior and…
We study the S-matrix elements of the gauge invariant operators corresponding to on-shell closed strings, in open string field theory. In particular, we calculate the tree level S-matrix element of two ${\it arbitrary}$ closed strings, and…
We present a string theory realization for the correspondence between quantum integrable models and supersymmetric gauge theories. The quantization results from summing the effects of fundamental strings winding around a compact direction.…
Coordinate scaling of each spin density separately is considered in spin density functional theory. A virial theorem relates the spin-scaled correlation energy to the spin-scaled correlation potentials. An adiabatic connection formula…
