Free Energy of ABJM Theory

Mikael Smedbäck

The free energy of ABJM theory has previously been computed in the strong and weak coupling limits. In this note, we report on results for the computation of the first non-vanishin…

On thermodynamics of N=6 superconformal Chern-Simons theory

Mikael Smedbäck

We study thermodynamics of N=6 superconformal Chern-Simons theory by computing quantum corrections to the free energy. We find that in weakly coupled ABJM theory on R(2) x S(1), th…

Superconformal Chern-Simons Theories and AdS_4/CFT_3 Correspondence

Marcus Benna, Igor Klebanov, Thomas Klose +1

We discuss the N=2 superspace formulation of the N=8 superconformal Bagger-Lambert-Gustavsson theory, and of the N=6 superconformal Aharony-Bergman-Jafferis-Maldacena U(N)xU(N) Che…

Supersymmetric Giant Graviton Solutions in AdS_3

Gautam Mandal, Suvrat Raju, Mikael Smedbäck

We parameterize all classical probe brane configurations that preserve 4 supersymmetries in (a) the extremal D1-D5 geometry, (b) the extremal D1-D5-P geometry, (c) the smooth D1-D5…

From Gravitons to Giants

Avinash Dhar, Gautam Mandal, Mikael Smedbäck

We discuss exact quantization of gravitational fluctuations in the half-BPS sector around AdSS background, using the dual super Yang-Mills theory. For this purpose…

Bubbling Orientifolds

Sunil Mukhi, Mikael Smedbäck

We investigate a class of 1/2-BPS bubbling geometries associated to orientifolds of type IIB string theory and thereby to excited states of the SO(N)/Sp(N) N=4 supersymmetric Yang-…
