Two Polyakov Loop Correlators from D5-Branes at Finite Temperature [PDF]
, 2007 We study two Polyakov loop correlators in large N limit of N = 4 super Yang-Mills theory at finite temperature using the AdS-Schwarzschild black hole.

Gaussian and Mean Field Approximations for Reduced Yang-Mills Integrals [PDF]
, 2000 In this paper, we consider bosonic reduced Yang-Mills integrals by using some approximation schemes, which are a kind of mean field approximation called Gaussian approximation and its improved version.

Polyakov loop models in the large N limit: Correlation function and screening masses [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2023 We explore the ’t Hooft-Veneziano limit of the Polyakov loop models at finite baryon chemical potential. Using methods developed by us earlier we calculate the two- and N-point correlation functions of the Polyakov loops.

Wilson-'t Hooft loops in finite-temperature noncommutative dipole field theory from dual supergravity [PDF]
, 2007 We first study the temporal Wilson loop in the finite-temperature noncommutative dipole field theory from the string/gauge correspondence. The associated dual supergravity background is constructed from the near-horizon geometry of near-extremal D branes,

Wilson-'t Hooft operators in four-dimensional gauge theories and S-duality [PDF]
, 2005 We study operators in four-dimensional gauge theories which are localized on a straight line, create electric and magnetic flux, and in the UV limit break the conformal invariance in the minimal possible way. We call them Wilson-'t Hooft operators, since

Chaos and the reparametrization mode on the AdS2 string
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 We study the holographic correlators corresponding to scattering of fluctuations of an open string worldsheet with AdS2 geometry. In the out-of-time-order configuration, the correlators display a Lyapunov growth that saturates the chaos bound.

Phase transition of anti-symmetric Wilson loops in N=4$$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ SYM [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 A bstractWe will argue that the 1/2 BPS Wilson loops in the anti-symmetric representations in the N=4$$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ super Yang-Mills (SYM) theory exhibit a phase transition at some critical value of the ’t Hooft coupling of order N2.

Domain Walls and Metastable Vacua in Hot Orientifold Field Theories [PDF]
, 2010 We consider "Orientifold field theories", namely SU(N) gauge theories with Dirac fermions in the two-index representation at high temperature. When N is even these theories exhibit a spontaneously broken Z2 centre symmetry. We study aspects of the domain

Conformal constraints on defects
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 In this paper we study the constraints imposed by conformal invariance on extended objects a.k.a. defects in a conformal field theory. We identify a particularly nice class of defects that is closed under conformal transformations.
