Instructor: Rob Myers, Perimeter Institute
Type: University of Waterloo and University of Guelph credit course
Dates: September 29 - December 11, 2009; Fridays at 2:00 pm, Board Room Course Description: This will be a course for graduate students interested in learning about the AdS/CFT correspondence or gauge/gravity duality. This is one of the central tools in modern superstring theory. The topics covered include: introduction to superstring theory; D3-branes (at weak and strong coupling); N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory; large-N counting; conformal invariance in field theory; geometry of anti-de Sitter space; field/operator dictionary; computation to correlators; Wilson loops; modeling confinement; black hole mechanics; AdS black holes and thermal gauge theory.
