What does the string/gauge correspondence teach us about Wilson loops?
Jacob Sonnenschein
In these lectures we describe the attempt to extract the expectation values of Wilson loops from the string/gauge correspondence. We start with the original calculation in .…
Potential from Strings in Curved Spacetime - Classical Results
Y. Kinar, E. Schreiber, J. Sonnenschein
We compute the leading behaviour of the quark anti-quark potential from a generalized Nambu-Goto action associated with a curved space-time having an "extra dimension". The extra d…
More on Screening and Confinement in 2D QCD
J. Sonnenschein
We provide further evidence for the screening behavior of massless SU(N_c) bosonized QCD by (i) computing the potential between external quarks, (ii) bosonizing also the external s…
Duality and other Exotic Gauge Dynamics in Softly Broken Supersymmetric QCD
Ofer Aharony, Michael E. Peskin, Jacob Sonnenschein +1
We analyze the theory of softly broken supersymmetric . Exotic behavior like spontaneously broken baryon number, massless composite fermions and Seiberg's duality seems to per…
Non-Critical String Models as Topological Coset models
J. Sonnenschein, S. Yankielowicz
The topological coset model appraoch to non-critical string models is summarized. The action of a topological twisted coset model () is written down…
Physical States in Topological Coset Models
J. Sonnenschein
Recent results about topological coset models are summarized. The action of a topological coset model () is written down as a sum of ``decoupled" ma…
