Spinning Fluids: A Group Theoretical Approach

Dario Capasso, Debajyoti Sarkar

We extend the Lagrangian formulation of relativistic non-abelian fluids in group theory language. We propose a Mathisson-Papapetrou equation for spinning fluids in terms of the red…

Deconstructing Supersymmetric S-matrices in D <= 2 + 1

Abhishek Agarwal, Donovan Young

Global supersymmetries of the S-matrices of N = 2, 4, 8 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories in three spacetime dimensions (without matter hypermultiplets) are shown to be SU(1|1), S…

Holographic representation of bulk fields with spin in AdS/CFT

Daniel Kabat, Gilad Lifschytz, Shubho Roy +1

We develop the representation of bulk fields with spin one and spin two in anti-de Sitter space, as non-local observables in the dual CFT. Working in holographic gauge in the bulk,…

Supersymmetry and Mass Gap in 2+1 Dimensions: A Gauge Invariant Hamiltonian Analysis

Abhishek Agarwal, V. P. Nair

A Hamiltonian formulation of Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons theories with supersymmetry in terms of gauge-invariant variables is presented, generalizing earlier work on no…

Two-dimensional Born-Infeld gauge theory: spectrum, string picture and large-N phase transition

Alexios P. Polychronakos

We analyze U(N) Born-Infeld gauge theory in two spacetime dimensions. We derive the exact energy spectrum on the circle and show that it reduces to N relativistic fermions on a dua…

Gravity and compactified branes in matrix models

Harold Steinacker

A mechanism for emergent gravity on brane solutions in Yang-Mills matrix models is exhibited. Newtonian gravity and a partial relation between the Einstein tensor and the energy-mo…

Gauge-invariant Mass Terms and Wave Functions

V. P. Nair

We outline a method of relating the quantum effective action and the ground state wave function of a field theory. This method, along with a gauge-invariant mass term and the previ…
