11) String theory: ADS/QCD or more generally, ADS/QFT
Talk
I will describe a chiral infinite tension limit of the RNS superstring, known as ambitwistor string theory, which provides a powerful point of view on tree-level Yang-Mills and gravity amplitudes in arbitrary dimensions. In four dimensions, ambitwistor string theory gives rise to new formulae for tree-level Yang-Mills and gravity amplitudes with arbitrary amounts of supersymmetry, which are...

Talk
In this talk I will discuss 1+1-dimensional QCD with fermions in the adjoint representation. In the high density regime, the infrared physics of this theory is described by a constrained free fermion theory with an emergent N=(2,2) superconformal symmetry. I will discuss the partition function and the search for chiral primaries in this model. In view of the construction of a holographic dual,...

11) String theory: ADS/QCD or more generally, ADS/QFT
Talk
In the gauge/gravity duality, the deconfinement transition in the gauge theory is identified with a formation of black hole in the dual gravity theory. By assuming this correspondence, many predictions on QGP have been made. In this talk, we justify this approach quantitatively, and also provide intuitive understanding. Firstly we give quantitative evidence for this identification from the...
