Boundary Conditions and New Dualities: Vector Fields in AdS/CFT. (2007)
Journal Article
Marolf, D., & Ross, S. F. (2007). Boundary Conditions and New Dualities: Vector Fields in AdS/CFT. Journal of High Energy Physics, 11(2006),

In AdS, scalar fields with masses slightly above the Breitenlohner-Freedman bound admit a variety of possible boundary conditions which are reflected in the Lagrangian of the dual field theory. Generic small changes in the AdS boundary conditions cor... Read More about Boundary Conditions and New Dualities: Vector Fields in AdS/CFT..

Non-supersymmetric asymptotically AdS_5 x S^5 smooth geometries. (2007)
Journal Article
Ross, S. F. (2007). Non-supersymmetric asymptotically AdS_5 x S^5 smooth geometries. Journal of High Energy Physics, 01(2006),

We find soliton solutions in five-dimensional gauged supergravity, where a circle degenerates smoothly in the core of the geometry. In the family of solutions we consider, we find no completely smooth supersymmetric solutions, but we find discrete fa...

Causally pathological space-times are physically relevant (2005)
Journal Article
Hubeny, V. E., Rangamani, M., & Ross, S. F. (2005). Causally pathological space-times are physically relevant. International Journal of Modern Physics D, 14(12), 2227-2232. https://doi.org/10.1142/s0218271805007760

We argue that in the context of string theory, the usual restriction to globally hyperbolic space–times should be considerably relaxed. We exhibit an example of a space–time which only satisfies the causal condition, and so is arbitrarily close to ad... Read More about Causally pathological space-times are physically relevant.

Causal structures and holography (2005)
Journal Article
Hubeny, V. E., Rangamani, M., & Ross, S. F. (2005). Causal structures and holography. Journal of High Energy Physics, 2005(07), Article 037. https://doi.org/10.1088/1126-6708/2005/07/037

We explore the description of bulk causal structure in a dual field theory. We observe that in the spacetime dual to a spacelike non-commutative field theory, the causal structure in the boundary directions is modified asymptotically. We propose that...

Nonsupersymmetric smooth geometries and D1-D5-P bound states (2005)
Journal Article
Jejjala, V., Madden, O., Ross, S., & Titchener, G. (2005). Nonsupersymmetric smooth geometries and D1-D5-P bound states. Physical Review D, Particles and fields, 71(12), https://doi.org/10.1103/physrevd.71.124030

We construct smooth nonsupersymmetric soliton solutions with D1-brane, D5-brane, and momentum charges in type IIB supergravity compactified on T4×S1, with the charges along the compact directions. This generalizes previous studies of smooth supersymm... Read More about Nonsupersymmetric smooth geometries and D1-D5-P bound states.
