Stringy gravity, interacting tensionless strings and massless higher spins
read the original abstract
Consequences of a strong version of the AdS/CFT correspondence for extremely stringy physics are examined. In particular, properties of N = 4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are used to extract results about interacting tensionless strings and massless higher spin fields in an AdS_5 x S^5 background. Furthermore, the thermodynamics of this model signals the presence of a Hawking-Page phase transition between AdS_5 space and a "black hole"-like high temperature configuration even in the extreme string limit.

Resurgence of high-energy string amplitudes
High-energy string amplitudes have asymptotic expansions governed by Bernoulli numbers, upgraded via resurgence to transseries whose Stokes data encode non-perturbative monodromy between kinematic regions.
