Introduction

Motivation

The idea of gauge/gravity duality presents the most beautiful link between string theory and our observable world. Historically it came out of string theory. But in the past few years this duality has proven its independent existence as an effective description of strongly-interacting quantum systems.

Introduction

Motivation

The idea of gauge/gravity duality presents the most beautiful link between string theory and our observable world. Historically it came out of string theory. But in the past few years this duality has proven its independent existence as an effective description of strongly-interacting quantum systems. The AdS/CFT correspondence is becoming the most promising toolkit of condense matter physicists to understand some strongly coupled systems such as real-time, finite temperature behavior of strongly interacting quantum systems, especially those near quantum critical points.
