Gauge fields and strings

Obiettivo

It is known that strongly coupled gauge theories have a dual, holographic, description as string or gravity theories, but the duality is well understood only for fairly unrealistic theories. This project tries to improve our understanding for more realistic cases.

Concretely, the dual of QCD should be a five dimensional theory, so it is necessary to deal with strings in less than ten dimensions (the so-called non-critical strings). We plan to research in this non-critical duality. In particular, we want to engineer and analyse solutions corresponding to N=2 and N=1 cases. The relation to well studied gauge theories should be useful to provide a better understanding of the physics of non-critical strings.

Moreover, problems related to the holographic descript ion of fundamental matter and the construction of metrics and gravitational solutions with other interesting gauge theory duals will also be addressed. The deepening in the knowledge of the amazing web of dualities should help to address problems in gauge theories, string theories, geometry and even cosmology.
