The Thermal Free Energy in Large N Chern-Simons-Matter Theories
Ofer Aharony, Simone Giombi, Guy Gur-Ari +2
We compute the thermal free energy in large N U(N) Chern-Simons-matter theories with matter fields (scalars and/or fermions) in the fundamental representation, in the large tempera…
The Higher Spin/Vector Model Duality
Simone Giombi, Xi Yin
This paper is mainly a review of the dualities between Vasiliev's higher spin gauge theories in AdS4 and three dimensional large N vector models, with focus on the holographic calc…
Correlators of Wilson loops and local operators from multi-matrix models and strings in AdS
Simone Giombi, Vasily Pestun
We study correlation functions of Wilson loops and local operators in a subsector of N=4 SYM which preserves two supercharges. Localization arguments allow to map the problem to a…
"Short" spinning strings and structure of quantum AdS_5 x S^5 spectrum
M. Beccaria, S. Giombi, G. Macorini +2
Using information from the marginality conditions of vertex operators for the AdS_5 x S^5 superstring, we determine the structure of the dependence of the energy of quantum string…
