We consider general-symmetry higher spin fields in AdS_5 and derive expressions for their one-loop corrections to vacuum energy E and the associated 4d boundary conformal anomaly a-coefficient. We a propose a similar expression for the…

According to the standard classification of Conformal Quantum Field Theory (CQFT) in two dimensions, the massless continuum limit of the $O(2)$ model at the Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) transition point should be given by the massless free…

We consider an example of vectorial AdS_5/CFT_4 duality when the boundary theory is described by N free complex or real Maxwell fields. It is dual to a particular ("type C") higher spin theory in AdS_5 containing fields in special…

We discuss in detail the $1+1$-dimensional superconformal field theory dual to type II string theory on $AdS_3\times S^3\times T^4$, emphasizing the string theoretic aspects of this duality. For one unit of NS-NS 5-brane flux ($Q_5=1$),…

We study global aspects of N=2 Kazama-Suzuki coset models by investigating topological G/H Kazama-Suzuki models in a Lagrangian framework based on gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten models. We first generalize Witten's analysis of the holomorphic…

The Euclidean Anti-de Sitter (AdS) space provides a natural framework for studying boundary conformal field theory (BCFT). We analyze the conformal boundary conditions of the critical O$(N)$ model in $d=4-\epsilon$ dimensions using the…

We study BPS saturated domain walls in supersymmetric SU(N) Yang-Mills theories in the large N limit. We focus on the Seiberg-Witten regime of ${\cal N}=2$ theory perturbed by a small mass ($m<O(\Lambda/N^4)$) and determine the wall profile…

Sigma models on coset superspaces, such as odd dimensional superspheres, play an important role in physics and in particular the AdS/CFT correspondence. In this work we apply recent general results on the spectrum of coset space models and…

We consider CFT's arising from branes probing singularities of internal manifolds. We focus on holographic models with internal space including arbtirary Sasaki-Einstein manifolds coming from CY as well as arbitrary sphere quotients. In all…

We examine anomalous dimensions of higher spin currents in the critical O(N) scalar model and the Gross-Neveu model in arbitrary d dimensions. These two models are proposed to be dual to the type A and type B Vasiliev theories,…

We consider F/M/Type IIA theory compactified to four, three, or two dimensions on a Calabi-Yau four-fold, and study the behavior near an isolated singularity in the presence of appropriate fluxes and branes. We analyze the vacuum and…

We construct a class of conformal boundary states in the $\mathrm{SU}(n)_1$ Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) conformal field theory (CFT) using the symmetry embedding $\mathrm{Spin}(n)_2 \subset \mathrm{SU}(n)_1$. These boundary states are beyond…

We study operators with large internal charge in boundary conformal field theories (BCFTs) with internal symmetries. Using the state-operator correspondence and the existence of a macroscopic limit, we find a non-trivial relation between…

We study conical geometry with the maximal number of fermionic symmetry in the higher spin supergravity described by sl(N+1|N) + sl(N+1|N) Chern-Simons gauge theory. It was proposed that a three dimensional N=2 higher spin supergravity is…

We explicitly construct the extension of the N=2 super Virasoro algebra by two super primary fields of dimension two and three with vanishing u(1)-charge. Using a super covariant formalism we obtain two different solutions both consistent…

We study a class of nonlocal conformal field theories in two dimensions which are obtained as deformations of the Virasoro minimal models. The construction proceeds by coupling a relevant primary operator $\phi_{r,s}$ of the $m$-th minimal…

We propose a connection between conformal field theory (CFT) and the exact solution and integrability of the reduced BCS model of superconductivity. The relevant CFT is given by the $SU(2)_k$-WZW model in the singular limit when the level k…

Multi-parametric families of AdS$_{4}$ vacua with various amounts of supersymmetry and residual gauge symmetry are found in the $\,[\textrm{SO}(1,1) \times \textrm{SO}(6)] \ltimes \mathbb{R}^{12}\,$ maximal supergravity that arises from the…

We consider the low-energy limit of the two-dimensional theory on multiple M2-branes suspended between a flat M5-brane and a curved M5-brane. We argue that it is described by an $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ supersymmetric Landau-Ginzburg model with…

Within the framework of "anomalously gauged" Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) models, we construct solutions which include nonabelian fields. Both compact and noncompact groups are discussed. In the case of compact groups, as an example of…
