Non-perturbative String Theory from Water Waves

Ramakrishnan Iyer, Clifford V. Johnson, Jeffrey S. Pennington

We use a combination of a 't Hooft limit and numerical methods to find non-perturbative solutions of exactly solvable string theories, showing that perturbative solutions in differ…

Deconfinement in Yang-Mills theory through toroidal compactification with deformation

Dusan Simic, Mithat Unsal

We introduce field theory techniques through which the deconfinement transition of four-dimensional Yang-Mills theory can be moved to a semi-classical domain where it becomes calcu…

Gauge theories from D7-branes over vanishing 4-cycles

Sebastian Franco, Gonzalo Torroba

We study quiver gauge theories on D7-branes wrapped over vanishing holomorphic 4-cycles. We investigate how to incorporate O7-planes and/or flavor D7-branes, which are necessary to…

Metastable Vacua in Warped Throats at Non-Isolated Singularities

Dusan Simic

We study the existence of metastable vacua in cascades based on fractional brane configurations at non-isolated singularities preserving N = 1 supersymmetry. We find that in a larg…

Holographic fractional topological insulators in 2+1 and 1+1 dimensions

Andreas Karch, Joseph Maciejko, Tadashi Takayanagi

We give field theory descriptions of the time-reversal invariant quantum spin Hall insulator in 2+1 dimensions and the particle-hole symmetric insulator in 1+1 dimensions in terms…

The Effective Field Theory of Multifield Inflation

Leonardo Senatore, Matias Zaldarriaga

We generalize the Effective Field Theory of Inflation to include additional light scalar degrees of freedom that are in their vacuum at the time the modes of interest are crossing…

Cascades with Adjoint Matter: Adjoint Transitions

Dusan Simic

A large class of duality cascades based on quivers arising from non-isolated singularities enjoy adjoint transitions - a phenomenon which occurs when the gauge coupling of a node p…

The Complete Four-Loop Four-Point Amplitude in N=4 Super-Yang-Mills Theory

Z. Bern, J. J. M. Carrasco, L. J. Dixon +2

We present the complete four-loop four-point amplitude in N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory, for a general gauge group and general D-dimensional covariant kinematics, and including all n…

Large-N volume independence in conformal and confining gauge theories

Mithat Unsal, Laurence G. Yaffe

Consequences of large volume independence are examined in conformal and confining gauge theories. In the large limit, gauge theories compactified on $\R^{d-k} \times (S^1)^…

Cosmological Behavior of a Parity and Charge-Parity Violating Varying Alpha Theory

Debaprasad Maity, Pisin Chen

In this report we construct a phenomenological model in which the time variation of the fine structure constant, , is induced by a parity and charge-parity (PCP) violating inter…

A Naturally Minute Quantum Correction to the Cosmological Constant Descended from the Hierarchy

Shu-Heng Shao, Pisin Chen

We demonstrate that an extremely small but positive quantum correction, or the Casimir energy, to the cosmological constant can arise from a massive bulk fermion field in the Randa…

String Theory and Water Waves

Ramakrishnan Iyer, Clifford V. Johnson, Jeffrey S. Pennington

We uncover a remarkable role that an infinite hierarchy of non-linear differential equations plays in organizing and connecting certain {hat c}<1 string theories non-perturbatively…
