Here are some links on excellent lectures on AdS/CFT by Juan Maldacena which I found on Google Video (quality is fascinating):

Lecture 1: Large N expansion (he starts with O(N) sigma model, large N matrix models and ends discussing Polyakov’s action; the lecture contains everything you need to know about condensation of Lagrangian multipliers – exactly the staff I am currently working on, dear Juan, thanks for the inspiration :-) )

Lecture 2: Liouville mode and AdS background; why string theory on AdS (cross sphere) background is equivalent to N=4 SYM

and the Lecture 3 where he wants to go beyond conformal N=4 and discuss SYM theories with confinement

Hi SL,

I have no idea. Presumably you can try and find some Youtube downloader (lectures are on youtube) and use it to download lectures.

Cheers,
Dmitry.
