| Abstract: I will explain that by placing Yang-Mills theory on a rigid AdS background we can make it weakly coupled without loosing the essential features of confinement. In particular, we can study a weakly coupled analog of confining flux tubes. At large AdS radius we recover flat space and flux tubes are controlled by the effective theory. I will show the results of the calculations of flux tube spectra which indicate that small and large radii perturbative expansions match in the middle. |
