Abstract

One of the most useful and fascinating results obtained in string theory is the discovery of the relation between some quantum field theories and gravity. This relation is the core of the so-called "gauge/gravity duality" or also "AdS/CFT correspondence", one of most revolutionary breakthroughs in theoretical physics in the last decades.This correspondence is of the "weak/strong coupling" type, a fact that makes it extremely interesting but at the same time difficult to prove rigorously. The aim of this project is to continue doing high precision tests of the duality, computing and comparing quantities on the two sides. The techniques of supersymmetric localization will be used for this purpose. (AU)
