We study the structure of asymptotic symmetries in N=1+1 supersymmetric extension of three-dimensional gravity with torsion. Using a natural generalization of the bosonic anti-de Sitter asymptotic conditions, we show that the asymptotic…
As a concrete application of the holographic correspondence to manifolds which are only asymptotically Anti-de Sitter, we take a closer look at the quaternionic Taub-NUT space. This is a four dimensional, non-compact, inhomogeneous,…
We examine the behaviour of Killing spinors on AdS5 under various discrete symmetries of the spacetime. In this way we discover a number of supersymmetric orbifolds, reproducing the known ones and adding a few novel ones to the list. These…
In the $N=1$ superspace, AdS$_4$ supersymmetry is realized as the non-linear super coordinate transformations. The fermionic coordinates form a faithful non-linear representation of supersymmetry on their own. By introducing an auxiliary…
Although gravitational actions diverge in asymptotically AdS spacetimes, boundary counterterms can be added in order to cancel out those divergences; such counterterms are known in general to third order in the Riemann tensor for the…
We extend superspace by introducing an antisymmetric tensorial coordinate. The resulting theory presents a supersymmetry with central charge. After integrating over the tensorial coordinate, an effective action describing massive bosons and…
In all the odd dimensions which allow Majorana spinors, we consider a gravitational Lagrangian possessing local Poincare invariance and given by the dimensional continuation of the Euler density in one dimension less. We show that the local…
We derive the propagators for higher-spin master fields in anti-de Sitter space of arbitrary dimension. A method is developed to construct the propagators directly without solving any differential equations. The use of the ambient space,…
We deform the AdS/CFT Correspondence by the inclusion of a non-supersymmetric scalar mass operator. We discuss the behaviour of the dual 5 dimensional supergravity field then lift the full solution to 10 dimensions. Brane probing the…
We consider travelling waves propagating on the anti-de Sitter (AdS) background. It is pointed out that for any dimension d, this space of solutions has a Virasoro symmetry with a non-zero central charge. This result is a natural…
We outline an algorithm for construction of functional bases of absolute invariants under the rotation group for sets of rank 2 tensors and vectors in the Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension. We will use our earlier results for symmetric…
Field theory in space-time with boundary has an interesting sub-sector, where propagator is difference of those with Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions. Such boundary-induced theory in the bulk is essentially holomorphic and is…
In this paper we consider all consistent extensions of the AdS_5 x S^5 superalgebra, psu(2,2|4), to incorporate brane charges by introducing both bosonic and fermionic (non)central extensions. We study the Inonu-Wigner contraction of the…
We consider quantum field theory in a five-dimensional anti-de Sitter background, possibly truncated by 4d branes. In the Euclidian version of this space, it is known that propagators exponentially decay when they go far enough towards the…
In this thesis we study embedding formalisms for $\mathcal{N}$-extended anti-de Sitter (AdS) superspaces in four and five dimensions. Specifically, building on earlier work in the four-dimensional case, we develop bi-supertwistor…
We analyse the most general bosonic supersymmetric solutions of type IIB supergravity whose metrics are warped products of five-dimensional anti-de Sitter space (AdS$_5$) with a five-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M_{5}$, where the…
We derive the equations of motion for the bulk-to-boundary propagators of the anti-de Sitter (AdS) boson and fermion fields with arbitrary total angular momentum $J$, in a soft-wall AdS/QCD model and solve it analytically. It provides the…
We explicitly calculate a Witten diagram with general spinor field exchange on $(d+1)$-dimensional Euclidean Anti-de Sitter space, which is necessary to evaluate four-point correlation functions with spinor fields when we make use of the…
In this paper, we explore momentum space approach to computing scalar amplitudes in Anti-de Sitter space. We show that the algorithm derived by Arkani-Hamed, Benincasa, and Postnikov for cosmological wavefunctions can be straightforwardly…
We construct the massive scalar propagator for planar gravitational wave backgrounds propagating on Minkowski space. We represent the propagator in terms of the Bessel's function of suitably deformed nonlocal distance functions, the…
