Dyons, Superstrings, and Wormholes: Exact Solutions of the Non‐Abelian Dirac‐Born‐Infeld Action

Advances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015
We construct dyon solutions on coincident D4‐branes, obtained by applying T‐duality transformations to type I SO(32) superstring theory in 10 dimensions. These solutions, which are exact, are obtained from an action comprising the non‐Abelian Dirac‐Born‐Infeld action and a Wess‐Zumino‐like action. When one spatial dimension of the D4‐branes is taken to

Minimal area surfaces in AdS n+1 and Wilson loops

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
The AdS/CFT correspondence relates the expectation value of Wilson loops in N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SYM to the area of minimal surfaces in AdS 5. In this paper we consider minimal area surfaces in generic Euclidean AdS n+1 using the Pohlmeyer reduction ...

Spatial 't Hooft loop to cubic order in hot QCD [PDF]

, 2002
Spatial 't Hooft loops of strength k measure the qualitative change in the behaviour of electric colour flux in confined and deconfined phase of SU (N) gauge theory.

Emergent Inert Adjoint Scalar Field in SU(2) Yang‐Mills Thermodynamics due to Coarse‐Grained Topological Fluctuations

International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
We compute the phase and the modulus of an energy‐ and pressure‐free, composite, adjoint, and inert field ϕ in an SU(2) Yang‐Mills theory at large temperatures. This field is physically relevant in describing part of the ground‐state structure and the quasiparticle masses of excitations. The field ϕ possesses nontrivial S1‐winding on the group manifold

Toward precision holography in type IIA with Wilson loops

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018
We study the one-loop effective action of certain classical type IIA string configurations in AdS4 × ℂℙ3. These configurations are dual to Wilson loops in the N=6 $$ \mathcal{N}=6 $$ U(N) k × U(N)−k Chern-Simons theory coupled to matter whose expectation

Bootstrapping a stress-tensor form factor through eight loops

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We bootstrap the three-point form factor of the chiral stress-tensor multiplet in planar N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory at six, seven, and eight loops, using boundary data from the form factor operator product expansion.

Holography at Work for Nuclear and Hadron Physics

Advances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011
The purpose of this review is to provide basic ingredients of holographic QCD to nonexperts in string theory and to summarize its interesting achievements in nuclear and hadron physics. We focus on results from a less stringy bottom‐up approach and review a stringy top‐down model with some calculational details.

't Hooft and Wilson loop ratios in the QCD plasma [PDF]

, 2001
The spatial 't Hooft loop measuring the electric flux and the spatial Wilsonloop measuring the magnetic flux are analyzed in hot SU(N) gauge theory. Both display area laws. On one hand the tension of the 't Hooft loop is perturbatively calculable, in the

In‐Medium Effects in the Holographic Quark‐Gluon Plasma

Advances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010
We use the gauge/gravity duality to investigate various properties of strongly coupled gauge theories, which we interpret as models for the quark‐gluon plasma (QGP). In particular, we use variants of the D3/D7 setup as an implementation of the top‐down approach of connecting string theory with phenomenologically relevant gauge theories. We focus on the
