Non-planar Ads/CFT from group representation theory

In this thesis we explore certain limits of the AdS/CFT correspondence for integrability. This is done by calculating the action of the dilatation operator on operators known as restricted Schur polynomials, which are AdS/CFT dual to D3-branes known as giant gravitons. We focus on operators in N...

We find that, in various cases, this theory is integrable in a large N non-planar limit.
