Antiferromagnetic Operators in N=4 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory
K. Zarembo
The spectrum of operators in the su(2) sector of N=4 SYM is bounded because the number of operators is finite. According to the AdS/CFT correspondence, the string spectrum in this…
Inflation as a probe of new physics
Ulf H. Danielsson
In this paper we consider inflation as a probe of new physics near the string or Planck scale. We discuss how new physics can be captured by the choice of vacuum, and how this lead…
Long-Range GL(n) Integrable Spin Chains and Plane-Wave Matrix Theory
N. Beisert, T. Klose
Quantum spin chains arise naturally from perturbative large-N field theories and matrix models. The Hamiltonian of such a model is a long-range deformation of nearest-neighbor type…
1/J corrections to semiclassical AdS/CFT states from quantum Landau-Lifshitz model
J. A. Minahan, A. Tirziu, A. A. Tseytlin
One way to relate semiclassical string states and dual gauge theory states is to show the equivalence between their low-energy effective 2d actions. The gauge theory effective acti…
Ricci-flat supertwistor spaces
Ulf Lindstrom, Martin Rocek, Rikard von Unge
We show that supertwistor spaces constructed as a Kahler quotient of a hyperkahler cone (HKC) with equal numbers of bosonic and fermionic coordinates are Ricci-flat, and hence, Cal…
BRST extension of the Faddeev model
Soon-Tae Hong, Antti J. Niemi
The Faddeev model is a second class constrained system. Here we construct its nilpotent BRST operator and derive the ensuing manifestly BRST invariant Lagrangian. Our construction…
First-order supersymmetric sigma models and target space geometry
Andreas Bredthauer, Ulf Lindstrom, Jonas Persson
We study the conditions under which N=(1,1) generalized sigma models support an extension to N=(2,2). The enhanced supersymmetry is related to the target space complex geometry. Co…
An Exact Solution of 4D Higher-Spin Gauge Theory
E. Sezgin, P. Sundell
We give a one-parameter family of exact solutions to four-dimensional higher-spin gauge theory invariant under a deformed higher-spin extension of SO(3,1) and parameterized by a ze…
Brane Partons and Singleton Strings
J. Engquist, P. Sundell
We examine p-branes in AdS(D) in two limits where they exhibit partonic behavior: rotating branes with energy concentrated to cusp-like solitons; tensionless branes with energy dis…
4D black holes and holomorphic factorization of the 0A matrix model
Ulf H. Danielsson, Niklas Johansson, Magdalena Larfors +2
In this letter, we relate the free energy of the 0A matrix model to the sum of topological and anti-topological string amplitudes. For arbitrary integer multiples of the matrix mod…
Quantum corrections to spinning strings in AdS(5)xS(5) and Bethe ansatz: a comparative study
Sakura Schafer-Nameki, Marija Zamaklar, Konstantin Zarembo
We analyze quantum corrections to rigid spinning strings in AdS(5)xS(5). The one-loop worldsheet quantum correction to the string energy is compared to the finite-size correction f…
Special holonomy sigma models with boundaries
P. S. Howe, U. Lindstrom, V. Stojevic
A study of (1,1) supersymmetric two-dimensional non-linear sigma models with boundary on special holonomy target spaces is presented. In particular, the consistency of the boundary…
Superstrings with boundary fermions
P. S. Howe, U. Lindstrom, L. Wulff
The Green-Schwarz action for an open superstring with additional boundary fermions, representing Chan-Paton factors, is studied at the classical level. The boundary geometry is des…
The SU(2) sector in AdS/CFT
Joseph A. Minahan
In the large N limit of N=4 Super Yang-Mills, the mixing under dilatations of the SU(2) sector, single trace operators composed of L complex scalar fields of two types, is closed t…
A mini-course on topological strings
Marcel Vonk
These are the lecture notes for a short course in topological string theory that I gave at Uppsala University in the fall of 2004. The notes are aimed at PhD students who have stud…
Matching quantum strings to quantum spins: one-loop vs. finite-size corrections
N. Beisert, A. A. Tseytlin, K. Zarembo
We compare quantum corrections to semiclassical spinning strings in AdS(5)xS(5) to one-loop anomalous dimensions in N=4 supersymmetric gauge theory. The latter are computed using t…
Complete Spectrum of Long Operators in N=4 SYM at One Loop
N. Beisert, V. A. Kazakov, K. Sakai +1
We construct the complete spectral curve for an arbitrary local operator, including fermions and covariant derivatives, of one-loop N=4 gauge theory in the thermodynamic limit. Thi…
The Algebraic Curve of Classical Superstrings on AdS_5xS^5
N. Beisert, V. A. Kazakov, K. Sakai +1
We investigate the monodromy of the Lax connection for classical IIB superstrings on AdS_5xS^5. For any solution of the equations of motion we derive a spectral curve of degree 4+4…
Yang-Mills, Complex Structures and Chern's Last Theorem
Andrei Marshakov, Antti J. Niemi
Recently Shiing-Shen Chern suggested that the six dimensional sphere has no complex structure. Here we explore the relations between his arguments and Yang-Mills the…
