HET Brown Bag | Finding String Theory from the Large N Bootstrap
Eric Perlmutter (Caltech)
I will discuss some recent methods for computing nonplanar CFT correlators, dual to one-loop amplitudes in AdS. This will include two applications to string theory: first, the development of a novel approach to computing perturbative string amplitudes; and second, a rigorous way to count the number of "large'' extra dimensions in the gravity dual of a strongly coupled, large N CFT.
