Thermodynamics of the hot BIon
Gianluca Grignani, Troels Harmark, Andrea Marini +2
We investigate the thermodynamics of the recently obtained finite temperature BIon solution of arXiv:1012.1494, focusing on two aspects. The first concerns comparison of the free e…
Finite-size corrections in the SU(2) x SU(2) sector of type IIA string theory on AdS_4 x CP^3
Davide Astolfi, Valentina Giangreco M. Puletti, Gianluca Grignani +2
We consider finite-size corrections in the SU(2) x SU(2) sector of type IIA string theory on AdS_4 x CP^3, which is the string dual of the recently constructed N=6 superconformal C…
Thermodynamics of theories with sixteen supercharges in non-trivial vacua
Gianluca Grignani, Luca Griguolo, Nicola Mori +1
We study the thermodynamics of maximally supersymmetric U(N) Yang-Mills theory on $\mathds{R}\times S^2$ at large . The model arises as a consistent truncation of s…
Gauge invariant finite size spectrum of the giant magnon
Davide Astolfi, Valentina Forini, Gianluca Grignani +1
It is shown that the finite size corrections to the spectrum of the giant magnon solution of classical string theory, computed using the uniform light-cone gauge, are gauge invaria…
Finite size corrections and integrability of SYM and DLCQ strings on a pp-wave
Davide Astolfi, Valentina Forini, Gianluca Grignani +1
We compute the planar finite size corrections to the spectrum of the dilatation operator acting on two-impurity states of a certain limit of conformal quiver gauge…
Divergence Cancellation and Loop Corrections in String Field Theory on a Plane Wave Background
Gianluca Grignani, Marta Orselli, Bojan Ramadanovic +2
We investigate the one-loop energy shift E to certain two-impurity string states in light-cone string field theory on a plane wave background. We find that there exist logarithmic…
