Holographic Probes of Anti-de Sitter Spacetimes
Vijay Balasubramanian, Per Kraus, Albion Lawrence +1
We describe probes of anti-de Sitter spacetimes in terms of conformal field theories on the AdS boundary. Our basic tool is a formula that relates bulk and boundary states -- class…

Bulk vs. Boundary Dynamics in Anti-de Sitter Spacetime
Vijay Balasubramanian, Per Kraus, Albion Lawrence
We investigate the details of the bulk-boundary correspondence in Lorentzian signature anti-de Sitter space. Operators in the boundary theory couple to sources identified with the…

On Conformal Theories in Four Dimensions
A. Lawrence, N. Nekrasov, C. Vafa
Extending recent work of Kachru and Silverstein, we consider ``orbifolds'' of 4-dimensional SU(n) super-Yang-Mills theories with respect to discrete subgroups of th…
