1. 1. Domain wall solutions in the AdS/CFT correspondence

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

   Author : Eduardo Mateos González; [2020]
   Keywords : AdS CFT correspondence; BW QFT correspondence;

   Abstract : In this thesis we study a particular realization of the Domain wall/Quantum Field Theory correspondence, a modification of the Anti de-Sitter/Conformal Field Theory correspondence that is used to study deformations of a Conformal Field Theory. In theQuantum gravity side of the duality we analyze a N = 1 gauged supergravity theory in 7 dimensions which presents two different Anti de-Sitter vacua, one of which preserves the full supersymmetry and one that breaks half of the supercharges.

3. 2. AdS/CFT correspondence and c-extremization

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

   Author : Roberto Goranci; [2017]
   Keywords : AdS CFT; c-extremization; Super Yang-Mills; Supergravity; M5 membrane; Conformal field theory; Anomalies; superconformal CFT; 6d SCFT; black string; String theory; compactification;

   Abstract : In this project we review the method of using c-extremization and computing anomalies to obtain AdS/CFT theories. We start with a quick introduction to CFT's and AdS/CFT correspondence which gives us the tools to later understand the 2D N= (2,0) SCFT and its gravity duals in particular AdS_5xS^5 and AdS_7xS^4 compactified on Riemann surfaces. ..
