Накратко на български
Връзката между теорията на струните и калибровните теории помага да се разберат сложни взаимодействия, при които гравитацията се обединява с квантовата физика. Това позволява количествено описание на силно свързани системи, които иначе са трудни за изчисляване.

Final Activity Report Summary - GAUGE VIA STRING (Unravelling the Non-Perturbative Structure of Gauge Theory)
This proposal investigated non-perturbative gauge theory behaviour using modern string theory tools. String theory is a candidate for extending the standard model to include gravity in a unified quantum theory. One of the most important developments in modern string theory was the discovery of dualities between gauge and string theories. These remarkable dualities postulated the equivalence of non-abelian gauge theories and quantum theories of gravity, as described by string theories on curved spacetimes, unravelling an unexplored connection between these two, a priori very different, types of theories at a non-perturbative level. This gave us for the first time a quantitative handle on a strongly coupled gauge theory via string theory on a curved spacetime, which tackled one of the key questions in modern theoretical physics. This project developed the gauge-theory and string theory correspondence, in particular through an analysis of the roles of fermionic modes and on the formulation of string theory on curved spacetimes.

Цел на проекта
This proposal aims to examine non-perturbative properties of gauge theories with little or no super-symmetry using modern string theory tools. In particular, I propose to investigate stringy, non-super-symmetric aspects of gauge/string dualities using the newly developed semi-classical approach to these dualities. This method gives a handle on previously inaccessible regions of gauge theories, and will play a key role in unravelling their non-perturbative dynamics. This proposal aims to provide string theory answers to pertinent gauge theory questions, by developing new theoretical approaches and techniques, which will significantly enhance the state of the art in the field.
