Abstract :
This is a comprehensive review of the worldsheet techniques for the quantization of type IIB superstring theory on the AdS 5 × S 5 background, using the pure spinor formalism. Particular emphasis is devoted to AdS/CFT applications, with several examples worked out in detail. The review is self-contained and pedagogical.
