Non-relativistic metrics with extremal limits

Emiliano Imeroni, Aninda Sinha

We present solutions of type IIB supergravity with z=2 Schrodinger asymptotics that admit an extremal limit, i.e. the black hole horizon has a double zero. These solutions are obta…

On deformed gauge theories and their string/M-theory duals

Emiliano Imeroni

We present general formulae for the TsT transformation (T-duality, shift, T-duality) of type II string backgrounds and open string boundary conditions. The TsT transformation provi…

Giants and loops in beta-deformed theories

Emiliano Imeroni, Asad Naqvi

We study extended objects in the gravity dual of the N=1 beta-deformation of N=4 Super Yang-Mills theory. We identify probe brane configurations corresponding to giant gravitons an…

Predictions for orientifold field theories from type 0' string theory

Adi Armoni, Emiliano Imeroni

Two predictions about finite-N non-supersymmetric "orientifold field theories" are made by using the dual type 0' string theory on C^3 / Z_2 x Z_2 orbifold singularity. First, the…

c=1 from c<1: Bulk and boundary correlators

Sergei Alexandrov, Emiliano Imeroni

We study the c_L=25 limit, which corresponds to c=1 string theory, of bulk and boundary correlation functions of Liouville theory with FZZT boundary conditions. This limit is singu…

N=1 gauge superpotentials from supergravity

Emiliano Imeroni

We review the supergravity derivation of some non-perturbatively generated effective superpotentials for N=1 gauge theories. Specifically, we derive the Veneziano-Yankielowicz supe…
