A bstract We initiate the study of holographic correlators for operators whose dimension
scales with the central charge of the CFT. Differently from light correlators or probes, the …

A bstract We study to what extent, and in what form, the notion of gauge-string duality may
persist at finite N. It is shown, in the half-BPS sector, that the states of D3 giant graviton …

In this note, we study a simplified variant of the familiar holographic duality between
supergravity on AdS _3 * S^ 3 * T^ 4 AdS 3× S 3× T 4 and the SCFT (on the moduli space of) …

We derive and test a novel holographic duality in the B-model topological string theory. The
duality relates the B-model on certain Calabi-Yau three-folds to two-dimensional chiral …

We explore the properties of $\Omega $-deformed M-theory, with particular focus on the
$\mathbb {C} _ {\epsilon_1}\times\mathbb {C} _ {\epsilon_2}\times\mathbb {C} _ {\epsilon_3} …

A bstract We study correlation functions of determinant-like operators in the “chiral algebra
subsector” of four-dimensional\(\mathcal {N}\)= 4 gauge theory with U (N) gauge group. We …

We consider algebraic varieties canonically associated with any Lie superalgebra, and
study them in detail for super-Poincaré algebras of physical interest. They are the locus of …

We present a correspondence between two-dimensional N=(2, 2) supersymmetric gauge
theories and rational integrable gl (m| n) spin chains with spin variables taking values in …

A bstract\(\mathcal {N}= 4\) super Yang-Mills theory admits [1] a protected subsector
isomorphic to a two-dimensional chiral algebra, obtained by passing to the cohomology of a …

In this article, we introduce basic aspects of the algebraic notion of Koszul duality for a
physics audience. We then review its appearance in the physical problem of coupling QFTs …
