Parabolic refined invariants and Macdonald polynomials

Wu-yen Chuang, Duiliu-Emanuel Diaconescu, Ron Donagi +1

A string theoretic derivation is given for the conjecture of Hausel, Letellier, and Rodriguez-Villegas on the cohomology of character varieties with marked points. Their formula is…

Entanglement entropy of spherical domains in anti-de Sitter space

Pavel Krtous, Andrei Zelnikov

It was proposed by Ryu and Takayanagi that the entanglement entropy in conformal field theory (CFT) is related through the AdS/CFT correspondence to the area of a minimal surface i…

On General Off-Shell Representations of Worldline (1D) Supersymmetry

Charles F. Doran, Tristan Hubsch, Kevin M. Iga +1

Every finite-dimensional unitary representation of the N-extended worldline supersymmetry without central charges may be obtained by a sequence of differential transformations from…

Modular Data and Verlinde Formulae for Fractional Level WZW Models II

Thomas Creutzig, David Ridout

This article gives a complete account of the modular properties and Verlinde formula for conformal field theories based on the affine Kac-Moody algebra sl(2) at an arbitrary admiss…

T-duality For Orientifolds and Twisted KR-theory

Charles Doran, Stefan Mendez-Diez, Jonathan Rosenberg

D-brane charges in orientifold string theories are classified by the KR-theory of Atiyah. However, this is assuming that all O-planes have the same sign. When there are O-planes of…

Excluding Black Hole Firewalls with Extreme Cosmic Censorship

Don N. Page

The AMPS argument for black hole firewalls seems to arise not only from the assumption of local effective field theory outside the stretched horizon but also from an overcounting o…

Time Dependence of Hawking Radiation Entropy

Don N. Page

If a black hole starts in a pure quantum state and evaporates completely by a unitary process, the von Neumann entropy of the Hawking radiation initially increases and then decreas…
