Motivated by attempts to extend AdS/CFT duality to non-BPS states we consider classical
closed string solutions with several angular momenta in different directions of AdS5 and S5 …

We review a special class of seraiclassical string states in AdS5× S5 which have a regular
expansion of their energy in integer powers of the ratio of the square of the string tension ('t …

We derive the spectrum of Kaluza-Klein descendants of string excitations on AdS 5× S 5.
String states are organized in long multiplets of the AdS supergroup SU (2, 2| 4) with a rich …

We study certain properties of the low energy regime of a theory which resembles four
dimensional YM theory in the framework of a non-critical holographic gravity dual. We use …

We consider the particle spectrum and event shapes in large N gauge theories in different
regimes of the short-distance't Hooft coupling, λ. The mesons in the small λ limit should have …

Honey bees are important for ecological health, biodiversity preservation, and crop output.
Antimicrobials, like Tetracyclines, are commonly used in agriculture, medicine, and …

We compute the one-loop string corrections to the Wilson loop, glueball Regge trajectory
and stringy hadron masses in the Witten model of nonsupersymmetric, large-N Yang-Mills …

We attempt to obtain realistic glueball Regge trajectories from the gauge/string
correspondence. To this end we study closed spinning string configurations in two …

We point out the existence of some simple string solitons in AdS 5× S 5, which at the same
time are spinning in AdS 5 and pulsating in S 5, or vice versa. This introduces an additional …

We discuss the incorporation of quarks in the fundamental representation of the color group
into the non-critical string/gauge duality. We focus on confining theories and address this …
