Perhaps you could give the simpler answer that you speak of to ensure more people can understand?

U know, I am still studying those things but don't say that anybod should give simple answers. We are here to discuss serious scientific matters and we should give appropriate answers if we want to achieve our aim as quickl as possible. Anways, I love complex mathematics and complex answers.

Ok; have you read the lectures that I provided a link to? What do you think?

Man that was the page I read and asked here what's AdS/CFT correspondance.

Well, are any of the posts in this thread useful to you? If not, then I think you should state precisely what level of mathematics you are comfortable with. The subject matter is advanced in its nature, so if you can't follow something at the level of the lecture notes that I pointed to you, then you will need to seek a more "popular" explanation. Did the link to the Cambridge web page help you? That is, AFAIK, meant to be a more general public-friendly summary of the subject.

I admire you trying to learn as much as you can, but I strongly advise you to try and walk before you can run. For example, in order to study this you will need a firm grasp of quantum field theory, which requires a good knowledge of quantum mechanics, which in turn needs strength in classical mechanics; and that's just the physics. You will also need to know a fair amount of higher level mathematics in order to understand quantum field theory. If you try and break this chain, then you will only be doing yourself harm in the future. There is a reason that these topics are taught in the final year of undergraduate degrees, or the first year of graduate degrees, at most institutions around the world.

I don't understand what u mean by lecture notes? U didn't gimme an one. Can u post it again?
