Wilson Loop Form Factors: A New Duality
Dmitry Chicherin, Paul Heslop, Gregory P. Korchemsky +1
We find a new duality for form factors of lightlike Wilson loops in planar super-Yang-Mills theory. The duality maps a form factor involving an -sided lightlike p…
Is inflation from unwinding fluxes IIB?
Fridrik Freyr Gautason, Marjorie Schillo, Thomas Van Riet
In this paper we argue that the mechanism of unwinding inflation is naturally present in warped compactifications of type IIB string theory with local throats. The unwinding of flu…
Bolting Multicenter Solutions
Iosif Bena, Guillaume Bossard, Stefanos Katmadas +1
We introduce a solvable system of equations that describes non-extremal multicenter solutions to six-dimensional ungauged supergravity coupled to tensor multiplets. The system invo…
Discrete anomalies in supergravity and consistency of string backgrounds
Ruben Minasian, Soumya Sasmal, Raffaele Savelli
We examine SL(2, Z) anomalies in ten and eight-dimensional supergravities, the induced local counterterms and their realization in string theory. Composite connections play an impo…
A perturbative approach to the confinement-deconfinement phase transition
Urko Reinosa
We summarize recent progress in describing the confinement-deconfinement transition from a novel perturbative approach.
Non-Abelian bubbles in microstate geometries
Pedro F. Ramirez
We find the first smooth microstate geometries with non-Abelian fields. The solutions constitute an extension of the BPS three-charge smooth microstates. These consist in general f…
Minimal lectures on two-dimensional conformal field theory
Sylvain Ribault
We provide a brief but self-contained review of two-dimensional conformal field theory, from the basic principles to some of the simplest models. From the representations of the Vi…
Minkowski flux vacua of type II supergravities
David Andriot, Johan Blåbäck, Thomas Van Riet
We study flux compactifications of 10d type II supergravities to 4d Minkowski space-time, supported by parallel orientifold Op-planes with 3 p 8. With some restrictio…
Refining the boundaries of the classical de Sitter landscape
David Andriot, Johan Blåbäck
We derive highly constraining no-go theorems for classical de Sitter backgrounds of string theory, with parallel sources; this should impact the embedding of cosmological models. W…
There and back again: A T-brane's tale
Iosif Bena, Johan Blåbäck, Ruben Minasian +1
T-branes are supersymmetric configurations described by multiple Dp-branes with worldvolume flux and non-commuting vacuum expectation values for two of the worldvolume scalars. Whe…
Smooth horizonless geometries deep inside the black-hole regime
Iosif Bena, Stefano Giusto, Emil J. Martinec +4
We construct the first family of horizonless supergravity solutions that have the same mass, charges and angular momenta as general supersymmetric rotating D1-D5-P black holes in f…
A conformal bootstrap approach to critical percolation in two dimensions
Marco Picco, Sylvain Ribault, Raoul Santachiara
We study four-point functions of critical percolation in two dimensions, and more generally of the Potts model. We propose an exact ansatz for the spectrum: an infinite, discrete a…
Supersymmetric Backgrounds, the Killing Superalgebra, and Generalised Special Holonomy
André Coimbra, Charles Strickland-Constable
We prove that, for M theory or type II, generic Minkowski flux backgrounds preserving supersymmetries in dimensions correspond precisely to integrable genera…
Generalized geometric vacua with eight supercharges
Mariana Graña, Praxitelis Ntokos
We investigate compactifications of type II and M-theory down to with generic fluxes that preserve eight supercharges, in the framework of Exceptional Generalized Geometry.…
Exactly marginal deformations from exceptional generalised geometry
Anthony Ashmore, Maxime Gabella, Mariana Graña +2
We apply exceptional generalised geometry to the study of exactly marginal deformations of SCFTs that are dual to generic AdS flux backgrounds in type IIB or el…
Thermodynamics of perfect fluids from scalar field theory
Guillermo Ballesteros, Denis Comelli, Luigi Pilo
The low-energy dynamics of relativistic continuous media is given by a shift-symmetric effective theory of four scalar fields. These scalars describe the embedding in spacetime of…
A non-Abelian Black Ring
Tomas Ortin, Pedro F. Ramirez
We construct a supersymmetric black ring solution of SU(2) N=1, d=5 Super-Einstein-Yang-Mills (SEYM) theory by adding a distorted BPST instanton to an Abelian black ring solution o…
T-branes through 3d mirror symmetry
Andres Collinucci, Simone Giacomelli, Raffaele Savelli +1
T-branes are exotic bound states of D-branes, characterized by mutually non-commuting vacuum expectation values for the worldvolume scalars. The M/F-theory geometry lifting D6/D7-b…
Conformal symmetry and nonlinear extensions of nonlocal gravity
Giulia Cusin, Stefano Foffa, Michele Maggiore +1
We study two nonlinear extensions of the nonlocal gravity theory. We extend this theory in two different ways suggested by conformal symmetry, either replacing $\Bo…
Loop corrections to the antibrane potential
Iosif Bena, Johan Blåbäck, David Turton
Antibranes provide some of the most generic ways to uplift Anti-de Sitter flux compactifications to de Sitter, and there is a growing body of evidence that antibranes placed in lon…
Non-local gravity with a Weyl-square term
Giulia Cusin, Stefano Foffa, Michele Maggiore +1
Recent work has shown that modifications of General Relativity based on the addition to the action of a non-local term , or on the addition to the equations of motio…
Momentum Fractionation on Superstrata
Iosif Bena, Emil Martinec, David Turton +1
Superstrata are bound states in string theory that carry D1, D5, and momentum charges, and whose supergravity descriptions are parameterized by arbitrary functions of (at least) tw…
