Supersymmetric Gauge Theories and the AdS/CFT Correspondence
Eric D'Hoker, Daniel Z. Freedman
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. Br…
Field theory insight from the AdS/CFT correspondence
D. Z Freedman, P. Henry-Labordere
A survey of ideas, techniques and results from d=5 supergravity for the conformal and mass-perturbed phases of d=4 =4 Super-Yang-Mills theory
Notes on Fluctuations and Correlation Functions in Holographic Renormalization Group Flows
Oliver DeWolfe, Daniel Z. Freedman
We study the coupled equations describing fluctuations of scalars and the metric about background solutions of N=8 gauged supergravity which are dual to boundary field theories wit…
Bosonic physical states in N=1 supergravity?
S. M. Carroll, D. Z. Freedman, M. E. Ortiz +1
It is argued that states in supergravity that solve all of the constraint equations cannot be bosonic in the sense of being independent of the fermionic degrees of freedom. (…
The Hidden Spatial Geometry of Non-Abelian Gauge Theories
D. Z. Freedman, P. E. Haagensen, K. Johnson +1
The Gauss law constraint in the Hamiltonian form of the gauge theory of gluons is satisfied by any functional of the gauge invariant tensor variable $ϕ^{ij} = B^{ia} B^{ja}…
