Aspects of Holography and Rotating AdS Black Holes

A comparison is made between the thermodynamics of weakly and strongly coupled Yang-Mills with fixed angular momentum. The free energy of the strongly coupled Yang-Mills is calculated by using a dual supergravity description corresponding to a rotating black hole in an Anti de Sitter (AdS) background. All thermodynamic quantities are shown have the same ratio of 3/4 (independent of angular mome...

Winding Strings in AdS3

Correlation functions of one-unit spectral flowed states in string theory on AdS3 are considered. We present a formalism which allows to explicitly find the modified Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov and null vector equations to be satisfied by amplitudes of states in w = 1 sectors. We give a precise prescription to solve this system of linear differential equations in cases that are relevant to obtain th...

D-branes in Lorentzian AdS3

We study the exact construction of D-branes in Lorentzian AdS3. We start by defining a family of conformal field theories that gives a natural Euclidean version of the SL(2,R) CFT and does not correspond to H3 , the analytic continuation of AdS3. We argue that one can recuperate the exact CFT results of Lorentzian AdS3, upon an analytic continuation in the moduli space of these conformal field ...

Counting Giant Gravitons in AdS3

We quantize the set of all quarter BPS brane probe solutions in global AdS3 × S × T /K3 found in [1]. We show that, generically, these solutions give rise to states in discrete representations of the SL(2, R) WZW model on AdS3. Our procedure provides us with a detailed description of the low energy 1 4 and 1 2 BPS sectors of string theory on this background. The 1 4 BPS partition function jumps...
