A comprehensive introduction to gauge/string duality and its applications to studying the properties and dynamics of quark-gluon plasma.

Many open questions in Theoretical Physics pertain to strongly interacting quantum systems such as the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) produced in heavy-ion collisions

The first textbook on this important topic, for graduate students and researchers in particle and condensed matter physics.

The AdS/CFT correspondence is a powerful tool in studying strongly coupled phenomena in gauge field theories, using results from a weakly coupled gravity backgr

Gauge/gravity duality creates new links between quantum theory and gravity. It has led to new concepts in mathematics and physics, and provides new tools to sol
