Supersymmetric Solitons and How They Help Us Understand Non-Abelian Gauge Theories

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarize major advances in the critical solitons in supersymmetric theories and their implications for understanding basic dynamical regularities of non-supersymmetric theory.

Towards integrability for AdS3/CFT2

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered supersymmetric string theories on curved backgrounds containing the three-dimensional anti-de-Sitter space, AdS3, and showed how their worldsheet scattering matrix factorises and their spectrum can be efficiently computed by Bethe ansatz techniques.

Quantum vortex strings: A review

David Tong
- 01 Jan 2009 - 
TL;DR: The quantum worldsheet dynamics of vortex strings contains information about the 4d non-Abelian gauge theory in which the string lives as discussed by the authors, which is typically some variant of the CP N - 1 sigma-model, describing the orientation of the string in a U (N ) gauge group.

The Holographic Dual of AdS3 x S3 x S3 x S1

TL;DR: In this article, the authors constructed the two dimensional N=(0,4) gauge theory that lives on the world volume of D1-branes and intersecting D5-brane and conjecture that this theory flows in the infra-red to a fixed point with large N = 4,4 superconformal symmetry.

The holographic dual of AdS 3 × S3 × S3 × S1

TL;DR: In this article, the authors constructed the two dimensional conformal field theory that lives on the world volume of D1-branes and intersecting D5branes, and they conjecture that this theory flows in the infra-red to a fixed point with large superconformal symmetry.

Supersymmetry and Supergravity

TL;DR: The second edition of this book appeared in 1983 and was based on a series of lectures given at Princeton in 1983 by Julius Wess as discussed by the authors, where the authors presented a general supersymmetric gauge invariant theory of chiral fields interacting with supergravity.

Vortex Line Models for Dual Strings

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that a Higgs type of Lagrangian allows for vortex-line solutions, in analogy with the vortex lines in a type II superconductor.

Phases of N = 2 theories in two dimensions

TL;DR: In this paper, a natural relation between sigma models based on Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in weighted projective spaces and Landau-Ginzburg models is found.

Type iib superstrings, bps monopoles, and three-dimensional gauge dynamics

TL;DR: In this article, the Coulomb branch of certain three-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories and the moduli spaces of magnetic monopoles are explained via string theory, and new phase transitions in three dimensions as well as new infrared fixed points and even new coupling constants are predicted from the string theory construction.

Solutions of four-dimensional field theories via m-theory

TL;DR: In this paper, the Coulomb branch of a large family of four-dimensional N = 2 field theories with zero or negative beta function is studied, and explicit solutions for Coulomb branches are given.
