Three topics in gauge/gravity duality

The gauge/gravity duality is extensively studied in recent years, as well as itsapplications to large N QCD and condensed matter physics. In this thesis, we studythe gravity duals of three different gauge theories. The first gauge theory has N = 1supersymmetry and is conformal, we study the spectrum...
