Abstract

We consider the correspondence between IIB string theory on the maximally supersymmetric PP‐wave and the BMN sector of 𝒩 = 4 SYM theory. At the level of the interacting (string) theory, the matching between these two descriptions is not yet fully understood. Here we review the tests supporting the simple proposal that relates the 3‐string interaction to the correlation functions among the BMN operators.

## Abstract We consider generalizations of the AdS/CFT correspondence in which probe branes are embedded in gravity backgrounds dual to either conformal or confining gauge theories. These correspond to defect conformal field theories (dCFT) or QCD‐like theories with fundamental matter, respectively

## Abstract We study quantities which are important for the realization of the holographic principle in the AdS/CFT correspondence: boundaries, geodesics and the propagators of scalar fields. They should play a role in the holographic setup in the BMN limit as well. We review the backgrounds and th
