One-loop effective potential from higher-dimensional AdS black holes
Guido Cognola, Emilio Elizalde, Sergio Zerbini
We study the quantum effects in a brane-world model in which a positive constant curvature brane universe is embedded in a higher-dimensional bulk AdS black hole, instead of the us…
Supersymmetric Deformations of G_2 Manifolds from Higher-Order Corrections to String and M-Theory
H. Lu, C. N. Pope, K. S. Stelle +1
The equations of 10 or 11 dimensional supergravity admit supersymmetric compactifications on 7-manifolds of holonomy, but these supergravity vacua are deformed away from spec…
Decay of long-lived massive closed superstring states: Exact results
Diego Chialva, Roberto Iengo, Jorge G. Russo
We find a one-parameter family of long-lived physical string states in type II superstring theory. We compute the decay rate by an exact numerical evaluation of the imaginary part…
Coincident brane nucleation and the neutralization of Λ
Jaume Garriga, Ariel Megevand
Nucleation of branes by a four-form field has recently been considered in string motivated scenarios for the neutralization of the cosmological constant. An interesting question in…
Physical Degrees of Freedom of Non-local Theories
Joaquim Gomis, Kiyoshi Kamimura, Toni Ramirez
We analyze the physical (reduced) space of non-local theories, around the fixed points of these systems, by analyzing: i) the Hamiltonian constraints appearing in the 1+1 formulati…
Spinning strings in AdS_5 x S^5: new integrable system relations
G. Arutyunov, J. Russo, A. A. Tseytlin
A general class of rotating closed string solutions in AdS_5 x S^5 is shown to be described by a Neumann-Rosochatius one-dimensional integrable system. The latter represents an osc…
