Recently, string theory on $\text{AdS}_3 \times \text{S}^3 \times \mathbb{T}^4$ with one unit of NS-NS flux ($k=1$) was argued to be exactly dual to the symmetric orbifold of $ \mathbb{T}^4$, and in particular, the full (unprotected)…
We perform Monte Carlo study of the 3d N=6 superconformal U(N)*U(N) Chern-Simons gauge theory (ABJM theory), which is conjectured to be dual to M-theory or type IIA superstring theory on certain AdS backgrounds. Our approach is based on a…
We discuss the correlation functions of the SL(2,C)/SU(2) WZW model, or the CFT on the Euclidean AdS_3. We argue that their calculation is reduced to that of a free theory by taking into account the renormalization and integrating out a…
We calculate the normalized angular three-point correlation function (3PCF), $q$, as well as the normalized angular skewness, $s_3$, assuming the small-angle approximation, for a biased mass distribution in flat and open cold-dark-matter…
We construct a CFT with $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R})_k$ symmetry at the `tensionless' point $k=3$, which is distinct from the usual $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})_{k=3}$ WZW model. This new CFT is much simpler than the generic WZW model: in…
We compute the 1-loop partition function for strings in $AdS_4\times\mathbb{CP}^3$, whose worldsheets end along a line with small cusp angles in the boundary of AdS. We obtain these 1-loop results in terms of the vacuum energy for on-shell…
We study the four-point correlator of 1/2-BPS operators of weight 4 in N=4 SYM, which are dual to massive KK modes in AdS_5 supergravity. General field-theoretic arguments lead to a partially non-renormalized form of the amplitude that…
We study local operator insertions on 1/2-BPS line defects in ABJM theory. Specifically, we consider a class of four-point correlators in the CFT$_1$ with SU$(1, 1|3)$ superconformal symmetry defined on the 1/2-BPS Wilson line. The relevant…
We study the 3-point functions of single-trace scalar operators in a four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ SYM theory with gauge group $\mathrm{SU}(N)$ and matter in the symmetric plus anti-symmetric representation, which has a vanishing…
This is an introductory review of the AdS/CFT correspondence and of the ideas that led to its formulation. We show how comparison of stacks of D3-branes with corresponding supergravity solutions leads to dualities between conformal large…
The 1-loop partition function of the handle-body solutions in the AdS$_3$ gravity have been derived some years ago using the heat-kernel and the method of images. In the semiclassical limit, such partition function should correspond to the…
We use Integrability techniques to compute structure constants in N=4 SYM to leading order. Three closed spin chains, which represent the single trace gauge-invariant operators in N=4 SYM, are cut into six open chains which are then sewed…
We study spacetime four-point functions of chiral primary operators for superstrings propagating in AdS$_3\times S^3\times T^4$ from the worldsheet perspective, allowing for external states with arbitrary spectral flow charges. We work at…
We develop the spacetime aspects of the computation of partition functions for string/M-theory on AdS(3) xM. Subleading corrections to the semi-classical result are included systematically, laying the groundwork for comparison with CFT…
We address the question of AdS/CFT correspondence in the case of the 3-point function <O_4 O_4 O_8>. O_4 and O_8 are particular primary states represented by F^2 + ... and F^4 + ... operators in \N=4 SYM theory and dilaton \phi and massive…
We develop a general method of computing the contribution of the vertex operators to the semi-classical correlation functions of heavy string states, based on the state-operator correspondence and the integrable structure of the system. Our…
We use the AdS/CFT correspondence to explicitly calculate some of the three-point functions in the planar limit of the 4d $\mathcal{N}=1$ Leigh-Strassler SCFT. This strongly interacting CFT can be obtained as a mass deformation of the 4d…
We compute the two-point correlation functions for the spin-3 theory in three dimensional (Anti-) de Sitter spacetimes by using holographic renormalisation. For the AdS case, we find results consistent with the general requirements of…
The AdS/CFT correspondence predicts a phase transition in Wilson loop correlators in the strong coupling N=4, D=4 SYM theory which arises due to instability of the classical string stretched between the loops. We study this transition in…
There has been recent progress on computing real-time equilibrium 3-point functions in finite-temperature strongly-coupled N=4 super Yang-Mills (SYM). In this paper, we show an example of how to carry out a similar analysis for a 4-point…
