We consider the Super Yang--Mills/spin system map to construct the SU(2) spin bit model at the level of two loops in Yang--Mills perturbation theory. The model describes a spin system with chaining interaction. In the large $N$ limit the…

We demonstrate that the one-loop anomalous dimension matrix in N = 2 SYM with a single chiral hypermultiplet of fundamental matter, which is dual to AdS_5 X S^5 with a D7-brane filling AdS_5 and wrapped around an $^3 in the S^5, is an…

We study semi-classical rotating open strings ending on a probe Dp-brane close to a stack of extremal, non-extremal Dp-branes and Dp-branes with $B$-fields. These states may be interpreted as positronium-like bound states of spinning…

The superconformal index of $\mathcal N=4$ super-Yang Mills theory with $U(N)$ gauge group can be written as a matrix integral over the gauge group. Recently, Murthy demonstrated that this integral can be reexpressed as a sum of terms…

The flavored superconformal Schur index of $\mathcal N=4$ $U(N)$ SYM has finite $N$ corrections encoded in its giant graviton expansion in terms of D3 branes wrapped in $AdS_{5}\times S^{5}$. The key element of this decomposition is the…

We consider N=1, D=4 superconformal U(N)^{pq} Yang-Mills theories dual to AdS_5xS^5/Z_pxZ_q orbifolds. We construct the dilatation operator of this superconformal gauge theory at one-loop planar level. We demonstrate that a specific sector…

We study the four-point correlator $\langle \mathcal{O}_2 \mathcal{O}_2 \mathcal{D} \mathcal{D} \rangle$ in $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory (SYM) with $SU(N)$ gauge group, where $\mathcal{O}_2$ represents the superconformal primary…

The maximal giant graviton is a D-brane wrapping a maximal $S^3\subset S^5$ within $\text{AdS}_5\times S^5$. It represents an upper bound on the $R$ charge that can be carried by certain bulk states. We study the maximal giant and its…

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.…

In this paper we discuss the asymptotic spectrum of the spin chain description of planar N=4 SUSY Yang-Mills. The states appearing in the spectrum belong to irreducible representations of the unbroken supersymmetry SU(2|2) x SU(2|2) with…
