4D Conformal Field Theories and Strings on Orbifolds
Open accessAbstract
We propose and test correspondences between 4D quantum field theories (QFTs) with $N\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}=\phantom{\rule{0ex}{0ex}}2,1,0$ (super)conformal invariance and type IIB string theory on various orbifolds of ${\mathrm{AdS}}_{5}\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{S}^{5}$. This allows us to translate the problem of finding stable nontrivial nonsupersymmetric string backgrounds into the problem of realizing nontrivial renormalization group (RG) fixed point QFTs on branes. RG fixed lines in this context correspond to string theories in which no vacuum energy is generated quantum mechanically.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
