Prof. Soonkeon Nam (Kyunghee U.)22/02/2012, 10:40Recent development in 4 Dimensional Quantum Field Theories have revealed that some of 2 Dimensional CFT techniques which have been developed last 20 some years are relevant, especially through the works of AGT. Instanton sector calculation (very difficult) can easily be done by 2D Conformal FIeld theory calculations. I wil review this connection and introduce some of my earlier works (more...Go to contribution page

Prof. Yunbai Kim (Sungkyunkwan U.)22/02/2012, 11:20We construct the gauge invariant interaction terms between the world-volume fields of multiple M2-branes and the 3- and 6-form fields in the context of ABJM theory. with U(N)×U(N) gauge and show that the obtained dimensionally reduced couplings coincide with the effective action of D2-branes coupled to R-R 3- and 5-form fields in type IIA string theory. As an application of our formulation, we...Go to contribution page

Dr Gungwon Kang (KISTI)22/02/2012, 12:00Most hypercylindrical black string/brane spacetime backgrounds are unstable under small long wavelength perturbations along the string/brane directions. This is the so-called Gregory-Laflamme instability. After giving a brief review on the recent developments on this issue, I motivate why a wider class of hypercylindrical spacetime solutions is needed to be studied more. Such solutions in...Go to contribution page
