We analyze SU(2) invariant half-BPS states of the 3d \cN=8 or \cN=6 SCFT within the radial quantization of the ABJM theory, the theory proposed to describe N M2-branes in the R^3x C^4/Z_k background. After studying the classical moduli…

We consider a mirror dual of the Berkovits-Vafa A-model for the BPS superstring on $AdS_5\times S^5$ in the form of a deformed superconifold. Via geometric transition, the theory has a dual description as the hermitian gaussian one-matrix…

We propose that type 0B string theory in two dimensions admits a dual description in terms of a one dimensional bosonic matrix model of a hermitian matrix. The potential in the matrix model is symmetric with respect to the parity-like Z_2…

Four-dimensional compactifications of string theory provide a controlled set of possible gauge representations accounting for BSM particles and dark sector components. In this review, constraints from perturbative Type II string…

In the bulk dual of holography, huge operators correspond to sources so heavy that they fully backreact on the space-time geometry. Here we study the correlation function of three such huge operators when they are given by $1/2$ BPS…

The role of general two-impurity multi-trace operators in the BMN correspondence is explored. Surprisingly, the anomalous dimensions of all two-impurity multi-trace BMN operators to order g_2^2\lambda' are completely determined in terms of…

We study three point functions of half BPS operators in $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory focusing on correltors of two of the operators with dimension of order $\Delta\sim N^2$ and a light single trace operator. These describe vacuum…

A new two dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$ Supersymmetric Non-Linear Sigma Model describes the dynamics of internal moduli of the BPS semi-local vortex string supported in four dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ SQED. While the core of these…

We extend recent remarkable progress in the comparison of the dynamical energy spectrum of rotating closed strings in AdS_5xS^5 and the scaling weights of the corresponding non-near-BPS operators in planar N=4 supersymmetric gauge theory.…

We review recent results of emergent geometries in the BMN matrix model, a one-dimensional gauge theory considered as a non-perturbative formulation of M-theory on the plane-wave geometry. A key to understand the emergent geometries is the…

We study the BPS spectrum of four dimensional N=2 SU(2) theory with massive fundamental matters using the D3-brane probe. Since the BPS states are realized by string webs subject to the BPS conditions, we determine explicitly the…

We study how the microstates of BPS sectors in string theory are organized in the dual $U(N)$ gauge theory. The microstates take the form of a coherent sum of stacks of branes and their open/closed string excitations. We propose a…

Matrix Product State (MPS) wavefunctions have many applications in quantum information and condensed matter physics. One application is to represent states in the thermodynamic limit directly, using a small set of position independent…

Two recently found coupled BPS submodels of the Skyrme model are further analyzed. Firstly, we provide a geometrical formulation of the submodels in terms of the eigenvalues of the strain tensor. Secondly, we study their thermodynamical…

We investigate the one-dimensional defect SCFT defined on the $1/2$ BPS Wilson line/loop in ABJ(M) theory. We show that the supermatrix structure of the defect imposes a covariant supermatrix representation of the supercharges. Exploiting…

Courant sigma-models encode the geometric and non-geometric fluxes of compactified closed string theory as generalized Wess-Zumino terms and exhibit their relation to Courant algebroids. In recent work, we proposed a doubled membrane…

Strings in $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric ${\rm U}(1)^N$ gauge theories with $N$ hypermultiplets are studied in the generic setting of an arbitrary Fayet-Iliopoulos triplet of parameters for each gauge group and an invertible charge matrix.…

We propose a new entry within the dictionary of the AdS/CFT duality at strong coupling: in the limit of a large spin or a large R-charge, the anomalous dimension of the gauge theory operator dual to a semiclassical rotating string is…

We review how the identification of gauge theory operators representing string states in the pp-wave/BMN correspondence and their associated anomalous dimension reduces to the determination of the eigenvectors and the eigenvalues of a…

We investigate supersymmetric tubular configurations in the matrix theory. We construct a host of BPS configurations of eight supersymmetries. They can be regarded as cylindrical D2 branes carrying nonvanishing angular momentum. For the…
