It has been recently proposed that string theory in the background of a plane wave corresponds to a certain subsector of the N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. This correspondence follows as a limit of the AdS/CFT duality. As a…

The quest for extension of holographic correspondence to the case of finite temperature naturally includes Kerr-AdS black holes and their field theory duals. We probe the five-dimensional Kerr-AdS space time by pulsating strings. First we…
We review and extend earlier work that uses the AdS/CFT correspondence to relate the black hole-black string transition of gravitational theories on a circle to a phase transition in maximally supersymmetric 1+1-dimensional SU(N) gauge…
We extend the AdS/CFT prescription of Alday and Maldacena to finite temperature $T$, defining the amplitude for gluon scattering in ${\cal N}=4$ Super Yang-Mills at strong coupling from string theory. It is defined by a lightlike ''Wilson…

The near-horizon noncommutative geometry of black holes, given by AdS^2_{\theta} x S^2_N, is discussed and the phase structure of the corresponding Yang-Mills matrix models is presented. The dominant phase transition as the system cools…
Consequences of a strong version of the AdS/CFT correspondence for extremely stringy physics are examined. In particular, properties of N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are used to extract results about interacting tensionless strings…
Boundary correlation functions provide insight into the emergence of an effective geometry in higher spin gravity duals of O(N) or U(N) symmetric field theories. On a compact manifold, the singlet constraint leads to nontrivial dynamics at…
