Large N field theories, string theory and gravity
We review the holographic correspondence between field theories and string/M theory,
focusing on the relation between compactifications of string/M theory on Anti-de Sitter …

Black hole remnants and the information loss paradox
Forty years after the discovery of Hawking radiation, its exact nature remains elusive. If
Hawking radiation does not carry any information out from the ever shrinking black hole, it …

Non-supersymmetric AdS and the Swampland
We propose to sharpen the weak gravity conjecture by the statement that, except for BPS
states in a supersymmetric theory, the gravitational force is strictly weaker than any electric …

A stress tensor for anti-de Sitter gravity
V Balasubramanian, P Kraus - Communications in Mathematical Physics, 1999 - Springer
We propose a procedure for computing the boundary stress tensor associated with a
gravitating system in asymptotically anti-de Sitter space. Our definition is free of ambiguities …

Surface terms as counterterms in the AdS-CFT correspondence
R Emparan, CV Johnson, RC Myers - Physical Review D, 1999 - APS
We examine the recently proposed technique of adding boundary counterterms to the
gravitational action for spacetimes which are locally asymptotic to anti–de Sitter spacetimes …

Holographic modeling of nuclear matter and neutron stars
M Järvinen - The European Physical Journal C, 2022 - Springer
I review holographic models for (dense and cold) nuclear matter, neutron stars, and their
mergers. I start by a brief general discussion on current knowledge of cold QCD matter and …

Asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes: conserved quantities
A Ashtekar, S Das - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2000 - iopscience.iop.org
Asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes are considered in a general dimension d 4. As one
might expect, the boundary conditions at infinity ensure that the asymptotic symmetry group …

The ads/cft correspondence
VE Hubeny - Classical and Quantum Gravity, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
We give a brief review of the AdS/CFT correspondence, which posits the equivalence
between a certain gravitational theory and a lower-dimensional non-gravitational one. This …
