  2. 1. Holographic Wilson Loops : Quantum String Corrections

    Author : Daniel Ricardo Medina Rincon; Konstantin Zarembo; Gianluca Grignani​; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Gauge-string correspondence; AdS CFT; Wilson loops; String theory; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : The gauge-string duality has been one of the most exciting areas in theoretical physics as it connects strongly coupled field theories with weakly interacting strings. The present thesis concerns the study of Wilson loops in this correspondence. READ MORE

  4. 2. Non-conformal gauge/string duality : A rigorous case study

    Author : Xinyi Chen-Lin; Konstantin Zarembo; Jorge Russo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; AdS CFT correspondence; holographic principle; supersymmetric localization; Wilson Loops; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : The gauge/string duality, a.k.a. the holographic principle is a profound assertion that emerged from string theory. READ MORE

  5. 3. Classical Aspects on the Road to Quantum Gravity: A Study in the Framework of the New Variables

    Author : Ola Boström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : There has been a lot of progress in the quest for the structure of spacetime since a canonical non-perturbative quantization program for general relativity was set up ten years ago. The crucial ideas are two choices of coordinates on phase space. READ MORE

  6. 4. Defects, renormalization and conformal field theory

    Author : Alexander Söderberg Rousu; Agnese Bissi; Pedro Liendo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; defects; boundaries; replica twist defect; conformal field theory; quantum field theory; Coleman-Weinberg mechanism; renormalization group flows; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : Defects in quantum field theories appear in many different contexts and are of great physical interest. Among other things, defects are used to describe the Kondō effect in condensed matter, confinement in quantum chromodynamics, Rényi entropy in quantum information and cosmic strings in string theory.
