We consider 1/2-BPS states in AdS/CFT. Using the matrix model description of chiral primaries explicit mappings among configurations of fermions, giant gravitons and the dual-giant gravitons are obtained. These maps lead to a `duality'…
We study correlation functions of two AdS giant gravitons in AdS$_5\times S^5$ and a BPS supergravity mode using holography. In the gauge theory these are described by BPS correlators of Schur polynomials of fully-symmetric representations…
We study a class of exact supersymmetric solutions of type IIB Supergravity. They have an SO(4) x SU(2) x U(1) isometry and preserve generically 4 of the 32 supersymmetries of the theory. Asymptotically AdS_5 x S^5 solutions in this class…
In this paper we study the AdS/CFT correspondence for N=4 SYM with gauge group U(N), compactified on S^3 in four dimensions using Monte-Carlo techniques. The simulation is based on a particular reduction of degrees of freedom to commuting…
We propose an exact, finite $N$ formula for the partition function over $1/4^{th}$ BPS states in the conformal field theory on the world volume of $N$ coincident M5 branes and $1/8^{th}$ BPS states in the theory of $N$ coincident M2 branes.…
We find generating functions for half BPS correlators in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM theories with gauge groups $Sp(2N)$, $SO(2N+1)$, and $SO(2N)$ by computing the norms of a class of BPS coherent states. These coherent states are built from…
The tiny graviton matrix theory [hep-th/0406214] is proposed to describe DLCQ of type IIB string theory on the maximally supersymmetric plane-wave or AdS_5xS^5 background. In this paper we provide further evidence in support of the tiny…
The BPS spectrum of AdS/CFT exhibits multi-gravitons at low energies, while having black hole states at higher energies. This can be studied concretely in AdS$_5$/CFT$_4$ in terms of classical cohomologies, even in the quantum regimes at…
We study numerically various wave functions in a gauged matrix quantum mechanics of six commuting hermitian $N\times N$ matrices. Our simulations span ranges of $N$ up to 10000. This system is a truncated and quenched version of N=4 SYM…
The LLM's 1/2 BPS solutions of IIB supergravity are known to be closely related to the integer quantum Hall droplets with filling factor $\nu=1$, and the giant gravitons in the LLM geometry behave like the quasi-holes in those droplets. In…
In this article we study giant gravitons in the framework of AdS/CFT correspondence. First, we show how to describe these configurations in the CFT side using a matrix model. In this picture, giant gravitons are realized as single…
We count 1/8-BPS states in type IIB string theory on AdS_5 x S^5 background which carry three independent angular momenta on S^5. These states can be counted by considering configurations of multiple dual-giant gravitons up to N in number…
In this dissertation we explore various aspects of the AdS/CFT correspondence. As string quantization on general backgrounds with fluxes is very difficult, one often uses the duality at the level of canonical fields of supergravity and the…
We provide analytical results for the probability distribution of a family of wavefunctions of a quantum mechanics model of commuting matrices in the large-N limit. These wavefunctions describe the strong coupling limit of 1/8 BPS states of…
In this paper we continue analysis of the Matrix theory describing the DLCQ of type IIB string theory on AdS_5 x S^5 (and/or the plane-wave) background, i.e. the Tiny Graviton Matrix Theory (TGMT)[hep-th/0406214]. We study and classify 1/2,…
Most quantum states have wavefunctions that are widely spread over the accessible Hilbert space and hence do not have a good description in terms of a single classical geometry. In order to understand when geometric descriptions are…
Some dynamical aspects of five-dimensional supergravity as a Chern-Simons theory for the SU(2,2|N) group, are analyzed. The gravitational sector is described by the Einstein-Hilbert action with negative cosmological constant and a…
A question is studied whether an observer can discover quantum gravity being in the semi-classical regime. It is shown that it is indeed possible to probe a certain quantum gravity effect by employing an appropriately designed detector. The…
We analyze detailed properties of BPS coherent states and their connection to gravity. We interpret the group integral coherent state as a path integral over auxiliary variables coupled to the elementary letters of the theory. The…
We introduce a class of supersymmetric cycles in spacetimes of the form AdS times a sphere or $T^{1,1}$ which can be considered as generalizations of the giant gravitons. Branes wrapped on these cycles preserve $1\over 2$, $1\over 4$ or…
