Aspects of strongly-coupled field theory from gauge-gravity duality
The issue of calculating at strong coupling is a hard problem in physics. The discovery of gauge-gravity duality at the end of the Twentieth Century provides a novel means of calculating in a large-N gauge theory at strong coupling. In this thesis we apply the method of gauge-gravity duality to a va...
