Abstract

String theory provides strong evidence that quantum gravity with certain asymptopia is described by a conventional—nongravitational—gauge theory living on the boundary. In this short summary of the plenary lecture we will introduce this correspondence together with a summary of recent progress in the construction of the quantum gravity description of nonlocal operators in gauge theory such as Wilson loop operators.
