The BMN limit of the AdS/CFT duality

Abstract: The tentative program is the following:
  • Lect. 1: Yang-Mills theory and its symmetries. The N=4 SYM spectrum: primary operators, anomalous dimensions.
  • Lect. 2: Type IIB string/supergravity. AdS_5 x S^5 and the BPS spectrum of IIB string on this background. The AdS/CFT conjecture.
  • Lect. 3: The BMN limit of the AdS/CFT duality: the spectrum.
  • Lect. 4: Beyond the spectrum: the interacting theory.
