11. Spins and Giants : Fundamental Excitations in Weakly and Strongly Coupled ABJM Theory
Sammanfattning : The discovery of integrability on both sides of the duality between planar N=4 super Yang-Mills theory and free type IIB string theory in AdS5 × S5 has lead to great progress in our understanding of the AdS/CFT correspondence. Similar integrable structures also appear in the more recent three-dimensional superconformal N=6 Chern-Simons-matter theory constructed by Aharony, Bergman, Jafferis and Maldacena (ABJM), as well as in its gravity dual, type IIA string theory on AdS4 × CP3.

12. Dualities, Symmetries and Unbroken Phases in String Theory : Probing the Composite Nature of the String
Sammanfattning : The thesis treats aspects of string/M-theory in anti-de Sitter spacetimes and their supersymmetric completions. By applying the AdS/CFT correspondence, as well as models of spin chains and singletons, we try to attain a better understanding of the underlying symmetries and the unbroken phases of string/M-theory.

13. Correlation Functions in Integrable Theories : From weak to strong coupling
Sammanfattning : The discovery of integrability in planar N=4 super Yang-Mills and ABJM has enabled a precise study of AdS/CFT. In the past decade integrability has been successfully applied to the spectrum of anomalous dimensions, which can now be obtained at any value of the coupling. LÄS MER
14. Linking Chains Together : String Bits and the Bethe Ansatz
Sammanfattning : This thesis is divided into two parts. In the first part we focus mainly on certain aspects of the AdS/CFT correspondence. The AdS/CFT correspondence is a proposed duality between Type IIB superstring theory on AdS5 x S5 and N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. LÄS MER
15. Quenched coupling and thermal behavior in the O(N) vector model
Sammanfattning : Thermalization is an elusive phenomenon in quantum mechanics. Since according to the AdS/CFT correspondence, a thermal state in the boundary CFT is dual to a black hole in the bulk spacetime, thermalization in the CFT is dual to black hole formation in AdS. LÄS MER
