Review of lattice supersymmetry and gauge-gravity duality
نویسنده
چکیده
We review the status of recent investigations on validating the gauge-gravity duality conjecture through numerical simulations of strongly coupled maximally supersymmetric thermal gauge theories. In the simplest setting, the gauge-gravity duality connects systems of D0-branes and black hole geometries at finite temperature to maximally supersymmetric gauged quantum mechanics at the same temperature. Recent simulations show that nonperturbative gauge theory results give excellent agreement with the quantum gravity predictions, thus proving strong evidence for the validity of the duality conjecture and more insight into quantum black holes and gravity.

Investigation of k-string energy using the gauge/gravity correspondence
The AdS/CFT correspondence, or in a more general sense, the gauge/gravity correspondence, is a duality between a string theory or gravity defined on one space and a gauge theory living on the conformal boundary of the same space. The AdS/CFT correspondence has drawn a tremendous amount of attention since the late 1990’s. After all, it sounds so promising and exciting to connect two drastically ...

We analyze the strong coupling behavior of the large N gauge theories in 4-dimensions with N = 4 supersymmetry by making use of S-duality. We show that at large values of the coupling constant λ = g YMN the j-th non-planar amplitude fj(λ) (j = 0, 1, 2 . . .) behaves as fj(λ) ≈ λ j . Implication of this behavior is discussed in connection with the supergravity theory on AdS5×S 5 suggested by the...

We consider a space–time invariant duality symmetric action for a free Maxwell field and an SL(2,R)× SO(6, 22) invariant effective action describing a low–energy bosonic sector of the heterotic string compactified on a six–dimensional torus. The manifest Lorentz and general coordinate invariant formulation of the models is achieved by coupling dual gauge fields to an auxiliary vector field from...

I review motivations for the study of supersymmetric field theories by lattice techniques. In particular, some of the more interesting potential applications are described. These are models of quantum gravity, that rely on the AdS/CFT correspondence. The dual gauge theory is an ideal place for lattice studies to make a contribution.
