AdS/CFT and Light-Front Holography: A Theory of Strong Interactions

Abstract

Recent developments in the theory of strong interactions are discussed in the framework of the AdS/CFT duality between string theories of gravity in a higher dimension Anti-de Sitter space and conformal quantum eld theories in physical space-time. This novel theoretical approach, combined with \light-front holography", leads to new insights into the quark and gluon structure of hadrons and a viable rst approximation to quantum chromodynamics, the fundamental theory of the strong and nuclear interactions.
