We investigate the problem of derivation of consistent equations of motion for the massive spin 2 field interacting with gravity within both field theory and string theory. In field theory we derive the most general classical action with non-minimal couplings in arbitrary spacetime dimension, find the most general gravitational background on which this action describes a consistent theory and generalize the analysis for the coupling with background scalar dilaton field. We show also that massive spin 2 field allows in principle consistent description in arbitrary background if one builds its action in the form of an infinite series in the inverse mass square. Using sigma-model description of string theory in background fields we obtain in the lowest order in $alpha$ the explicit form of effective equations of motion for the massive spin 2 field interacting with gravity from the requirement of quantum Weyl invariance and demonstrate that they coincide with the general form of consistent equations derived in field theory.

We investigate the problems of consistency and causality for the equations of motion describing massive spin two field in external gravitational and massless scalar dilaton fields in arbitrary spacetime dimension. From the field theoretical point of
view we consider a general classical action with non-minimal couplings and find gravitational and dilaton background on which this action describes a theory consistent with the flat space limit. In the case of pure gravitational background all field components propagate causally. We show also that the massive spin two field can be consistently described in arbitrary background by means of the lagrangian representing an infinite series in the inverse mass. Within string theory we obtain equations of motion for the massive spin two field coupled to gravity from the requirement of quantum Weyl invariance of the corresponding two dimensional sigma-model. In the lowest order in $alpha$ we demonstrate that these effective equations of motion coincide with consistent equations derived in field theory.
We investigate the structure of equations of motion and lagrangian constraints in a general theory of massive spin 2 field interacting with external gravity. We demonstrate how consistency with the flat limit can be achieved in a number of specific s
pacetimes. One such example is an arbitrary static spacetime though equations of motion in this case may lack causal properties. Another example is provided by external gravity fulfilling vacuum Einstein equations with arbitrary cosmological constant. In the latter case there exists one-parameter family of theories describing causal propagation of the correct number of degrees of freedom for the massive spin 2 field in arbitrary dimension. For a specific value of the parameter a gauge invariance with a vector parameter appears, this value is interpreted as massless limit of the theory. Another specific value of the parameter produces gauge invariance with a scalar parameter and this cannot be interpreted as a consistent massive or massless theory.
We review the holographic correspondence between field theories and string/M theory, focusing on the relation between compactifications of string/M theory on Anti-de Sitter spaces and conformal field theories. We review the background for this corres
pondence and discuss its motivations and the evidence for its correctness. We describe the main results that have been derived from the correspondence in the regime that the field theory is approximated by classical or semiclassical gravity. We focus on the case of the N=4 supersymmetric gauge theory in four dimensions, but we discuss also field theories in other dimensions, conformal and non-conformal, with or without supersymmetry, and in particular the relation to QCD. We also discuss some implications for black hole physics.
We present a new method, exact in $alpha$, to explicitly compute string tree-level amplitudes involving one massive state and any number of massless ones. This construction relies on the so-called twisted heterotic string, which admits only gauge mul
tiplets, a gravitational multiplet, and a single massive supermultiplet in its spectrum. In this simplified model, we determine the moduli-space integrand of all amplitudes with one massive state using Berends-Giele currents of the gauge multiplet. These integrands are then straightforwardly mapped to gravitational amplitudes in the twisted heterotic string and to the corresponding massive amplitudes of the conventional type-I and type-II superstrings.
A method of constructing a canonical gauge invariant quantum formulation for a non-gauge classical theory depending on a set of parameters is advanced and then applied to the theory of closed bosonic string interacting with massive background fields.
Choosing an ordering prescription and developing a suitable regularization technique we calculate quantum guage algebra up to linear order in background fields. Requirement of closure for the algebra leads to equations of motion for massive background fields which appear to be consistent with the structure of string spectrum.
