QCD Flux Tube in AdS

This conference talk by Victor Gorbenko from EPFL explores the QCD flux tube in Anti-de Sitter space, delving into strongly interacting Quantum Field Theory with applications to physical systems. Learn about Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), the theory describing the strong nuclear force that exhibits asymptotic freedom but becomes strongly coupled at long distances. Discover how quark confinement and chiral symmetry breaking are supported by experiments and lattice QCD studies. The presentation is part of a conference aimed at stimulating interplay between lattice and continuum approaches to QFT, covering topics such as Euclidean and Hamiltonian approaches to lattice field theory, string-theoretic approaches to confining flux tubes, and connections with quantum simulation and computation. The talk is co-sponsored by the Simons Collaboration on Confinement and QCD Strings and coordinated by Aleksey Cherman, Lance Dixon, and Igor Klebanov.
