Consistent truncations from the geometry of sphere bundles

Federico Bonetti, Ruben Minasian, Valentí Vall Camell +1

In this paper, we present a unified perspective on sphere consistent truncations based on the classical geometric properties of sphere bundles. The backbone of our approach is the…

A proof for string three-point functions in AdS

Davide Bufalini, Sergio Iguri, Nicolas Kovensky

Correlation functions of the -WZW model involving spectrally flowed vertex operators are notoriously difficult to compute. An explicit integral expression…

Smearing and Unsmearing KKLT AdS Vacua

Mariana Graña, Nicolas Kovensky, Dimitrios Toulikas

Gaugino condensation on D-branes wrapping internal cycles gives a mechanism to stabilize the associated moduli. According to the effective field theory, this gives rise, when combi…

Algebraic Bethe Ansatz for the Open XXZ Spin Chain with Non-Diagonal Boundary Terms via Symmetry

Dmitry Chernyak, Azat M. Gainutdinov, Jesper Lykke Jacobsen +1

We derive by the traditional algebraic Bethe ansatz method the Bethe equations for the general open XXZ spin chain with non-diagonal boundary terms under the Nepomechie constraint…

Classical off-shell currents

Francesco Comberiati, Leonardo de la Cruz

We consider tree-level off-shell currents of two massive particles and massless bosons in the classical limit, which can be fused into the classical limit of scattering a…

Solitonic Excitations in AdS2

Pierre Heidmann, Anthony Houppe

We construct large families of supergravity solutions that are asymptotic to AdS and terminate with a cap that is singular in two dimensions but smooth in higher dimensions. Th…

The Emergence Proposal in Quantum Gravity and the Species Scale

Alberto Castellano, Alvaro Herráez, Luis E. Ibáñez

In the Emergence Proposal in QG it is conjectured that all light-particle kinetic terms are absent in the fundamental UV theory and are generated by quantum corrections in the IR.…

The (amazing) Super-Maze

Iosif Bena, Shaun D. Hampton, Anthony Houppe +2

The entropy of the three-charge NS5-F1-P black hole in Type IIA string theory comes from the breaking of F1 strings into little strings, which become independent mo…

On Supersymmetric Multipole Ratios

Bogdan Ganchev, Daniel R. Mayerson

Four-dimensional supersymmetric black holes are static and so have all vanishing multipoles. Nevertheless, it is possible to define finite multipole ratios for these black holes, b…

Light-cone limits of large rectangular fishnets

Ivan Kostov

Basso-Dixon integrals evaluate rectangular fishnets -- Feynman graphs with massless scalar propagators which form a rectangular grid -- which arise in certain one-trace…

The gravitational path integral for BPS black holes from black hole microstate counting

Gabriel Lopes Cardoso, Abhiram Kidambi, Suresh Nampuri +2

We use the exact degeneracy formula of single-centred BPS dyonic black holes with unit torsion in 4D toroidally compactified heterotic string theory to improve on t…

Microscopics of de Sitter Entropy from Precision Holography

Nikolay Bobev, Thomas Hertog, Junho Hong +2

We calculate quantum corrections to the entropy of four-dimensional de Sitter space induced by higher-derivative terms in the gravitational action and by one-loop effects. Employin…

Virtues of a symmetric-structure double copy

John Joseph M. Carrasco, Nicolas H. Pavao

We demonstrate a physical motivation for extending color-dual or BCJ double-copy construction to include theories with kinematic numerators that obey the same algebraic relations a…

Classical vs Quantum Eikonal Scattering and its Causal Structure

Brando Bellazzini, Giulia Isabella, Massimiliano Maria Riva

We study the eikonal scattering of two gravitationally interacting bodies, in the regime of large angular momentum and large center of mass energy. We show that eikonal exponentiat…

Worldsheet computation of heavy-light correlators

Davide Bufalini, Sergio Iguri, Nicolas Kovensky +1

We compute a large collection of string worldsheet correlators describing light probes interacting with heavy black hole microstates. The heavy states consist of NS5 branes carryin…

A Flow in the Forest

Alexander Gorsky, Vladimir Kazakov, Fedor Levkovich-Maslyuk +1

Using the matrix-forest theorem and the Parisi-Sourlas trick we formulate and solve a one-matrix model with non-polynomial potential which provides perturbation theory for massive…

Universal lifting in the D1-D5 CFT

Bin Guo, Marcel R. R. Hughes, Samir D. Mathur +1

We consider D1-D5-P states in the untwisted sector of the D1-D5 orbifold CFT where one copy of the seed CFT has been excited with a left-moving superconformal primary. Despite bein…
