We discuss some recent perturbative calculations for quantum
strings in AdS5 x S5 and their comparison to integrability based
results in planar N=4 Super Yang-Mills (SYM). We use a certain AdS
version of the light-cone gauge, which is shown to yield...
We will discuss recent proposals of having effects coming from
triangle anomalies of QCD in the plasma created in relativistic
heavy ion collisions, such as chiral magnetic effect, chiral shear
waves and chiral magnetic waves.
By representing the potentially unstable bound states as
multi-centered black hole solutions in N=2 supergravity, we provide
explicit formula for the change in the (refined) index across a
wall of marginal stability. The main physical insight behind...
