Wilson Loops and Spherical Branes

Davide Astesiano, Pieter Bomans, Fridrik Freyr Gautason +2

We study 1/2-BPS Wilson loop operators in maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on $d$ -dimensional spheres. Their vacuum expectation values can be computed at large $N$ throug…

U-Folds From Geodesics in Moduli Space

D. Astesiano, D. Ruggeri, M. Trigiante

We exploit the presence of moduli fields in the $AdS_{3} \times S^{3} \times C Y_{2}$ , where $C Y_{2} = T^{4}$ or $K 3$ , solution to Type IIB superstring theory, to construct a U-fold solu…

Supersymmetric wormholes in String theory

Davide Astesiano, Fridrik Freyr Gautason

We construct a large family of Euclidean supersymmetric wormhole solutions of type IIB supergravity which are asymptotically AdS $_{5} \times S^{5}$ . The solutions are constructed using…
