ENERGY LOSS IN A STRONGLY COUPLED THERMAL MEDIUM AND THE GAUGE-STRING DUALITY [PDF]
We review methods developed in the gauge-string duality to treat energy loss by energetic probes of a strongly coupled thermal medium. After introducing the black hole description of the thermal medium, we discuss the trailing string behind a heavy quark

Strong-Weak Coupling Duality in Four Dimensional String Theory [PDF]
We present several pieces of evidence for strong-weak coupling duality symmetry in the heterotic string theory, compactified on a six dimensional torus.

The strong coupling limit of a quantum system is in general quite complicated, but in some cases a great simplification occurs: the strongly coupled limit is equivalent to the weakly coupled limit of some other system. In string theory conjectures of this type go back several years, but only in the past year and a half has it been understood to be a ...

A supermembrane description of string-string duality [PDF]
We show that the open membrane action on $T^3\times S^1/Z^2$ is equivalent to the closed membrane action on K3. The main difference between the two actions is that one generates the KK modes in the worldvolume action which is the strong coupling limit of \IIA\ while the other action generates the KK modes in a worldsheet action.

T-duality equivalences beyond string theory
We examine a two parameter family of gravitational actions which contains higher-derivative terms. These are such that the entire action is invariant under corrected T-duality rules, which we derive explicitly.

AdS3 string theory in the stringy regime k = (R AdS /ℓ s )2 < 1 provides a laboratory for the study of holography in which both sides of AdS/CFT duality are under fairly good control.

String Theory Dynamics In Various Dimensions [PDF]
The strong coupling dynamics of string theories in dimension $d\geq 4$ are studied. It is argued, among other things, that eleven-dimensional supergravity arises as a low energy limit of the ten-dimensional Type IIA superstring, and that a recently ...

Aspects of T-duality in open strings [PDF]
We study T-duality for open strings in various $D$-manifolds in the approach of canonical transformations. We show that this approach is particularly useful to study the mapping of the boundary conditions since it provides an explicit relation between initial and dual variables.

Baryon modes in string breaking from gauge/string duality
We consider the string breaking phenomenon within effective string models which purport to mimic QCD with two light flavors, with a special attention to baryon modes.

NONCOMMUTATIVE GEOMETRY, STRINGS AND DUALITY [PDF]
In this talk, based on work done in collaboration with G. Landi and R. J. Szabo, I will review how string theory can be considered as a noncommutative geometry based on an algebra of vertex operators. The spectral triple of strings is introduced, and some of the string symmetries, notably target space duality, are discussed in this framework.
