Gauge/gravity duality and the interplay of various fractional branes
Riccardo Argurio, Francesco Benini, Matteo Bertolini +2
We consider different types of fractional branes on a Z_2 orbifold of the conifold and analyze in detail the corresponding gauge/gravity duality. The gauge theory possesses a rich…

Brane Physics in M-theory
Riccardo Argurio
The thesis begins with an introduction to M-theory (at a graduate student's level), starting from perturbative string theory and proceeding to dualities, D-branes and finally Matri…

Intersection Rules and Open Branes
R. Argurio
A general rule determining how extremal branes can intersect in a configuration with zero binding energy is presented. It is derived in a model independent way and without explicit…
