We review the holographic correspondence between field theories and string/M theory,
focusing on the relation between compactifications of string/M theory on Anti-de Sitter …

Recently, it has been proposed by Maldacena that large $ N $ limits of certain conformal
field theories in $ d $ dimensions can be described in terms of supergravity (and string …

The correspondence between supergravity (and string theory) on $ AdS $ space and
boundary conformal field theory relates the thermodynamics of ${\cal N}= 4$ super Yang …

In these lecture notes we first assemble the basic ingredients of supersymmetric gauge
theories (particularly N= 4 super-Yang-Mills theory), supergravity, and superstring theory …

This review is devoted to the intriguing and still largely unexplored links between string
theory and higher spins, the types of excitations that lie behind their most cherished …

We consider a free massive spinor field in Euclidean Anti-de Sitter space. The usual Dirac
action in bulk is supplemented by a certain boundary term. The boundary conditions of the …

A bstract Starting from the asymptotic kinematics of massless scalar fields near null infinity in
any spacetime dimension, we build two higher-spin extensions of the Carrollian definition of …

This book is devoted to the analysis of old (classical) and new (non-Lie) symmetries of the
fundamental equations of quantum mechanics and classical field theory, and to the …

Approach your problems from the right end It isn't that they can't see the solution. It is and
begin with the answers. Then one day, that they can't see the problem. perhaps you will find …

Maldacena's duality between conformal field theories and supergravity is applied to some
conformal invariant models with eight supercharges appearing in the F-theory moduli space …
