Non-perturbative equivalences among large N gauge theories with adjoint and bifundamental matter fields
Pavel Kovtun, Mithat Unsal, Laurence G. Yaffe
We prove an equivalence, in the large N limit, between certain U(N) gauge theories containing adjoint representation matter fields and their orbifold projections. Lattice regulariz…

Construction of bosonic string theory on infinitely curved Anti-de Sitter space
Adam Clark, Andreas Karch, Pavel Kovtun +1
Free scalar field theory in the sector with a large number of particles can be interpreted as bosonic string theory on anti-de Sitter space of vanishing radius. Different ways of w…

Hydrodynamic Fluctuations, Long-time Tails, and Supersymmetry
Pavel Kovtun, Laurence G. Yaffe
Hydrodynamic fluctuations at non-zero temperature can cause slow relaxation toward equilibrium even in observables which are not locally conserved. A classic example is the stress-…
