We set up the computation of correlation functions for operators that are dual to semiclassical string states in strongly coupled defect conformal field theories (dCFTs). In the dCFT that is dual to the D3-D5 probe-brane system, we…

We use the embedding formalism to study correlation functions of a d-dimensional Euclidean CFT in the presence of a $q$ co-dimensional defect. The defect breaks the global conformal group $SO(d+1,1)$ into $SO(d-q+1,1) \times SO(q)$. We…

We discuss the properties of quarter-BPS local operators in four dimensional ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory using the formalism of holomorphic twists. We study loop corrections both to the space of local operators and to…

We study the holographic dual of two-point correlation functions for nonconformal field theories. We first take into account a Lifshitz geometry as the dual of a Lifshitz field theory which may appear at a critical or IR fixed point. We…

The holographic dictionary is well developed for gravity in asymptotically anti de Sitter $A(AdS_{d+1})$ spacetimes. However, this approach is limited, since many physically relevant configurations, such as bubbling geometries dual to heavy…

We investigate loop corrections to the four-point function of identical scalar operators in a four-dimensional large $N$ conformal field theory, holographically dual to AdS with a quartic interaction. We focus on the universal part of the…

We bootstrap tree-level supergravity four-point correlators on AdS$_5\times$S$^5$ with one external half-BPS double-particle operator and three half-BPS single-particle operators. Our only input is the consistency of the operator product…

We consider heavy-heavy-light-light (HHLL) correlators in AdS/CFT, focussing on the D1D5 CFT$_2$ and the ${\cal N}= 4$ super Yang-Mills theory. Out of the lightest $1/2$-BPS operator in the spectrum, $O$, we construct a particular heavy…

In the light of the recent Lin, Lunin, Maldacena (LLM) results we investigate 1/2-BPS geometries in minimal (and next-to minimal) supergravity in D=6 dimensions. In the case of minimal supergravity, solutions are given by fibrations of a…
