In the last decade, there has been tremendous progress in understanding conformal eld theories in more than two space-time dimensions. The numerical bootstrap framework has been pushed to a very advanced level of ...

This dissertation consist of three parts. The first part of the thesis is devoted to the study of gravity and higher spin gauge theories in 2+1 dimensions. We construct cosmological so-lutions of higher spin gravity in 2+1 ...

The work done in this thesis includes an exploration of both the conformal field theory techniques and holographic techniques of the Gauge/Gravity duality. From the field theory, we have analyzed the analytical aspects of ...
