Exact Results in Gauge Theories
(University of Waterloo, 2015-10-23)This thesis is devoted to the study of observables in the four dimensional superconformal N = 4 Yang-Mills theory. We will be focused on the problem of computing higher point correlation functions, scattering amplitudes ... -
Quantum quenches and the holographic duality.
(University of Waterloo, 2015-01-08)We study quantum quenches in a strongly coupled conformal field theory, using the gauge/gravity duality. In the first part of the thesis, we consider a perturbative thermal quench of a field theory in four spacetime ... -
Signatures of New Physics from the Primordial Universe
(University of Waterloo, 2007-08-29)During inflation quantum fluctuations of the field driving inflation, known as inflaton, were stretched by inflationary expansion to galactic size scales or even larger. A possible implication of inflation -- if it is ...
