  2. 11. Aspects of Yang-Mills Theory : Solitons, Dualities and Spin Chains

    Author : Lisa Freyhult; Antti Niemi; Poul Damgaard; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Theoretical physics; Theoretical Physics; Field theory; String theory; Yang-Mills; Effective models; Supersymmetry; Solitons; Fermion number; Duality; AdS CFT correspondence; Bethe ansatz; Teoretisk fysik; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : One of the still big problems in the Standard Model of particle physics is the problem of confinement. Quarks or other coloured particles have never been observed in isolation. Quarks are only observed in colour neutral bound states. The strong interactions are described using a Yang-Mills theory. READ MORE

  4. 12. Spins and Giants : Fundamental Excitations in Weakly and  Strongly Coupled ABJM Theory

    Author : Olof Ohlsson Sax; Joseph A. Minahan; Gianluca Grignani; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; String theory; AdS CFT correspondence; Integrable field theory; Mathematical physics; Matematisk fysik; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : The discovery of integrability on both sides of the duality between planar N=4 super Yang-Mills theory and free type IIB string theory in AdS5 × S5 has lead to great progress in our understanding of the AdS/CFT correspondence. Similar integrable structures also appear in the more recent three-dimensional superconformal N=6 Chern-Simons-matter theory constructed by Aharony, Bergman, Jafferis and Maldacena (ABJM), as well as in its gravity dual, type IIA string theory on AdS4 × CP3.

  5. 13. Correlation Functions in Integrable Theories : From weak to strong coupling

    Author : Raul Pereira; Joseph Minahan; Sergey Frolov; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Superstring theory; AdS CFT correspondence; Integrable field theories; Hexagon form factors; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : The discovery of integrability in planar N=4 super Yang-Mills and ABJM has enabled a precise study of AdS/CFT. In the past decade integrability has been successfully applied to the spectrum of anomalous dimensions, which can now be obtained at any value of the coupling. READ MORE

  6. 14. A CFT perspective on holographic correlators

    Author : Giulia Fardelli; Agnese Bissi; Paul Heslop; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Superconformal field theories; Analytic bootstrap; Correlation functions; Quantum gravity; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : Conformal symmetry is ubiquitous in physics. It emerges in a variety of situations from critical phenomena, through condensed matter systems and jets at the LHC to string theory. Conformal field theories (CFTs) describe the universal behavior underlying these very different setups. READ MORE

  7. 15. Quenched coupling and thermal behavior in the O(N) vector model

    Author : Julius Engelsöy; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Abstract : Thermalization is an elusive phenomenon in quantum mechanics. Since according to the AdS/CFT correspondence, a thermal state in the boundary CFT is dual to a black hole in the bulk spacetime, thermalization in the CFT is dual to black hole formation in AdS. READ MORE
