Supersymmetric Yang-Mills, spherical branes, and precision holography

Abstract Using supersymmetric localization we compute the free energy and BPS Wilson loop vacuum expectation values for planar maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on S d in the strong coupling limit for 2 ≤ d < 6. The same calculation can also be performed in supergravity using the recentl...
