We consider soliton solutions in AdS4 with a flat slicing and Wilson loops around one cycle. We study the phase structure and find the ground state and identify supersymmetric solutions as a function of the Wilson loops. We work in the context of a s...

On two conjectures of Sun concerning Apéry-like series (2023)
Journal Article
