Large N field theories, string theory and gravity

O Aharony, SS Gubser, J Maldacena, H Ooguri, Y Oz - Physics Reports, 2000 - Elsevier
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 …

Deriving the AdS3/CFT2 correspondence

L Eberhardt, MR Gaberdiel, R Gopakumar - Journal of High Energy …, 2020 - Springer
A bstract It was recently argued that string theory on AdS 3× S 3× 𝕋 4 with one unit (k= 1) of
NS-NS flux is exactly dual to the symmetric orbifold CFT Sym N (𝕋 4). In this paper we show …

Asymptotic fragility, near AdS2 holography and

S Dubovsky, V Gorbenko, M Mirbabayi - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 - Springer
A bstract We present the exact solution for the scattering problem in the flat space Jackiw-
Teitelboim (JT) gravity coupled to an arbitrary quantum field theory. JT gravity results in a …

A generalization of sachdev-ye-kitaev

DJ Gross, V Rosenhaus - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 - Springer
A bstract The SYK model: fermions with a q-body, Gaussian-random, all-to-all interaction, is
the first of a fascinating new class of solvable large N models. We generalize SYK to include …

Kodaira-Spencer theory of gravity and exact results for quantum string amplitudes

M Bershadsky, S Cecotti, H Ooguri, C Vafa - … in Mathematical Physics, 1994 - Springer
We develop techniques to compute higher loop string amplitudes for twisted N= 2 theories
with ĉ= 3 (ie the critical case). An important ingredient is the discovery of an anomaly at …

Seiberg-Witten theory and random partitions

NA Nekrasov, A Okounkov - The Unity of Mathematics: In Honor of the …, 2006 - Springer
We study N= 2 supersymmetric four-dimensional gauge theories, in a certain 525-02= 2
supergravity background, called the Ω-background. The partition function of the theory in the …

[KNIHA][B] Graphs on surfaces and their applications

SK Lando, AK Zvonkin - 2013 - books.google.com
Graphs drawn on two-dimensional surfaces have always attracted researchers by their
beauty and by the variety of difficult questions to which they give rise. The theory of such …

AdS3 black holes and a stringy exclusion principle

J Maldacena, A Strominger - Journal of High Energy Physics, 1999 - iopscience.iop.org
The duality relating near-horizon microstates of black holes obtained as orbifolds of a subset
of AdS3 to the states of a conformal field theory is analyzed in detail. The SL (2, R) L⊗ SL (2 …

Holomorphic anomalies in topological field theories

M Bershadsky, S Cecotti, H Ooguri, C Vafa - Nuclear Physics B, 1993 - Elsevier
We study the stringy genus-one partition function of N= 2 SCFTs. It is shown how to compute
this using an anomaly in decoupling of BRST trivial states from the partition function. A …
