M5-branes and Wilson surfaces
We investigate the M5-brane description of the Wilson surface operators in six-dimensional (2,0) superconformal field theory from AdS/CFT correspondence. We consider the Wilson surface operators in high-dimensional representation, whose description could be M5-brane string soliton solutions in AdS(7) x S' background. We construct such string soliton solutions from the covariant M5-brane equations of motion and discuss their properties. The supersymmetry analysis shows that these solutions are half-BPS. We also discuss the subtle issue on the boundary terms.

MHV vertices and scattering amplitudes in gauge theory
The generic googly amplitudes in gauge theory are computed by using the Cachazo-Svrcek-Witten approach to perturbative calculation in gauge theory and the results are in agreement with the previously well-known ones. Within this approach we also discuss the parity transformation, charge conjugation and the dual Ward identity. We also extend this calculation to include fermions and the googly amplitudes with a single quark-anti-quark pair are obtained correctly from fermionic MHV vertices. At the end we briefly discuss the possible extension of this approach to gravity.

SIX-QUARK AMPLITUDES FROM FERMIONIC MHV VERTICES
The fermionic extension of the CSW approach to perturbative gauge theory coupled with fermions is used to compute the six-quark QCD amplitudes. We find complete agreement with the results obtained by using the usual Feynman rules.

Comments on two loop four particle amplitude in superstring theory
It is shown that the four-particle amplitude of superstring theory at two loops obtained in [1], [2] is equivalent to the previously obtained results in [3]-[5]. Here the 2 symmetry in hyperelliptic Riemann surface plays an important role in the proof.

Multi-Spin Strings in AdS_4*CP^3 and its \beta-deformations
In this paper, we study the multi-spin string solutions in AdS_4*CP^3 and its \beta-deformation with real \beta. We give various explicit solutions after some general studies. Conserved charges are computed for these explicit solutions.

On the generality of the LLM geometries in M-theory
In this note we revisit the Lin, Lunin, Maldacena (LLM) class of d = 11 supergravity solutions with symmetry SO(6) × SO(3) × R, but generalise to allow for all fluxes consistent with the isometries. Using the Killing spinor equation, we prove there are no supersymmetric geometries with additional fluxes beyond the LLM ansatz. In addition, the LLM relationship between Killing spinors, ϵ− = − γ5ϵ+, may be seen as a consequence of identifying two Killing directions identified through the Killing spinor equation corresponding to candidate R-symmetry directions.

Dipole coupling effect of holographic fermion in the background of charged Gauss-Bonnet AdS black hole
A bstractWe investigate the holographic fermions in the charged Gauss-Bonnet AdSd black hole background with the dipole coupling between fermion and gauge field in the bulk. We show that in addition to the strength of the dipole coupling, the spacetime dimension and the higher curvature correction in the gravity background also influence the onset of the Fermi gap and the gap distance. We find that the higher curvature effect modifies the fermion spectral density and influences the value of the Fermi momentum for the appearance of the Fermi surface. There are richer physics in the boundary fermion system due to the modification in the bulk gravity.

The charged Lifshitz black brane geometry and the bulk dipole coupling
Abstract We study the fermionic response including the bulk dipole coupling on the charged Lifshitz black brane from Einstein–Dilaton–Maxwell model. For fixed Lifshitz dynamical critical exponent z , by tuning the dipole coupling parameter p , we can realize the phase transitions from Fermi liquid, to marginal Fermi liquid, to non-Fermi liquid and finally to Mott insulator. The Lifshitz dynamical critical exponent z plays the role of making the phase transition point from Fermi liquid to non-Fermi liquid or to Mott insulator decrease with the increase of z for fixed dipole coupling p .

Separation of space–time and matter in polar oscillations of compact stars
In polar oscillations of compact stars dynamical changes in spacetime and matter are in general coupled together. Based on the theory of stellar pulsation proposed by Allen et al. [Phys. Rev. D 58, 124012 (1998)], we establish a feasible approximation scheme to separate spacetime from matter in such oscillations. Two independent second-order ordinary differential equations are obtained, which lead to accurate determination of p-mode and w-mode quasi-normal modes of compact stars, respectively.

Holographic fermionic liquid with lattices
A bstractWe investigate the holographic fermions over a gravitational lattice background with a rather low temperature. Since the rotation symmetry is broken on the plane, the lattice effects change the shape of the Fermi surface within the first Brillouin zone from a circle to an ellipse. When the Fermi surface intersects with the Brillouin zone boundary, the band structure with a band gap is observed through a numerical analysis. We construct a lattice model sourced by a scalar field as well as an ionic lattice model without the scalar field. In both cases we find the similar physical results.

Chaos from the ring string in a Gauss-Bonnet black hole in AdS5 space
By the Poincare sections, the dynamical behaviors of the ring string in the AdS-Gauss-Bonnet (AdS-GB) black hole are studied. A threshold value of the Gauss-Bonnet (GB) parameter $\lambda$ are found by the numerical method, below which the behavior of this dynamical system is no-chaotic and above which the behavior becomes gradually chaotic. The chaotic behavior becomes stronger with the increases of GB parameter. It is different from the case in the AdS-Schwarzschild black hole, which is weakly chaotic. Furthermore, we confirm our findings by the Fast Lyapunov indicators.
