The large-N limit of matrix models and AdS/CFT

Random matrix models have found numerous applications in both Theoretical Physics and Mathematics. In the gauge-gravity duality, for example, the dynamics of the half- BPS sector can be fully described by the holomorphic sector of a single complex matrix model. In this thesis, we study the large...
