Spin Chains in N=6 Superconformal Chern-Simons-Matter Theory
Davide Gaiotto, Simone Giombi, Xi Yin
In this note we study spin chain operators in the N=6 Chern-Simons-matter theory recently proposed by Aharony, Bergman, Jafferis and Maldacena to be dual to type IIA string theory…

Supersymmetric Boundary Conditions in N=4 Super Yang-Mills Theory
Davide Gaiotto, Edward Witten
We study boundary conditions in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory that preserve one-half the supersymmetry. The obvious Dirichlet boundary conditions can be modified to allow some of the…

Monster symmetry and Extremal CFTs
Davide Gaiotto
We test some recent conjectures about extremal selfdual CFTs, which are the candidate holographic duals of pure gravity in . We prove that no extremal selfdual CFT or…
