Lattice Super Yang-Mills: A Virial Approach to Operator Dimensions
Curtis G. Callan, Jonathan Heckman, Tristan McLoughlin +1
The task of calculating operator dimensions in the planar limit of N=4 super Yang-Mills theory can be vastly simplified by mapping the dilatation generator to the Hamiltonian of an…
Higher Impurity AdS/CFT Correspondence in the Near-BMN Limit
Curtis G. Callan, Tristan McLoughlin, Ian Swanson
The pp-wave/BMN limit of the AdS/CFT correspondence has exposed the Maldacena conjecture to a new regimen of direct tests. In one line of pursuit, finite-radius curvature correctio…
Holography Beyond the Penrose Limit
Curtis G. Callan, Tristan McLoughlin, Ian Swanson
The flat pp-wave background geometry has been realized as a particular Penrose limit of AdS_5 x S^5. It describes a string that has been infinitely boosted along an equatorial null…
Quantizing String Theory in AdS_5 X S^5: Beyond the pp-Wave
Curtis G. Callan, Hok Kong Lee, Tristan McLoughlin +3
In a certain kinematic limit, where the effects of spacetime curvature (and other background fields) greatly simplify, the light-cone gauge world-sheet action for a type IIB supers…
Tilting the Noncommutative Bion
Joanna L. Karczmarek, Curtis G. Callan
In this note, we extend the noncommutative bion core solution of Constable, Myers and Tafjord (hep-th/9911136) to include the effects of a nonzero NS-NS two-form B. The result is a…
Undulating Strings and Gauge Theory Waves
Curtis G. Callan, Alberto Guijosa
We study some dynamical aspects of the correspondence between strings in AdS space and external heavy quarks in N=4 SYM. Specifically, by examining waves propagating on such string…
