Simplifying instanton corrections to N=4 SYM correlators

Massimo Bianchi, Andreas Brandhuber, Gabriele Travaglini +1

We compute instanton corrections to non-minimal correlation functions of chiral primary operators in the N=4 super Yang-Mills super-current multiplet. Using a representation in ter…

M-theory Compactifications to Three Dimensions with M2-brane Potentials

Cezar Condeescu, Andrei Micu, Eran Palti

We study a class of compactifications of M-theory to three dimensions that preserve N=2 supersymmetry and which have the defining feature that a probe space-time filling M2 brane f…

Heterotic-Type II duality and wrapping rules

E. A. Bergshoeff, C. Condeescu, G. Pradisi +1

We show how the brane wrapping rules, recently discovered in closed oriented string theories compactified on tori, are extended to the case of the Type IIA string compactified on K…

Constraining conformal field theory with higher spin symmetry in four dimensions

Yassen S. Stanev

We analyze the constraints on the general form and the singularity structure of the correlation functions of the symmetric, traceless and conserved stress-energy tensor implied by…

On the moduli space of spontaneously broken N = 8 supergravity

Francesca Catino, Gianguido Dall'Agata, Gianluca Inverso +1

We analyze the moduli space of spontaneously broken N=8 supergravity theories in 4 dimensions with classical Minkowski vacua. We find that all the known classical vacua, as well as…

U-folds as K3 fibrations

Andreas P. Braun, Francesco Fucito, Jose Francisco Morales

We study N=2 four-dimensional flux vacua describing intrinsic non-perturbative systems of 3 and 7 branes in type IIB string theory. The solutions are described as compactifications…

Exact results in N=2 gauge theories

Francesco Fucito, Jose Francisco Morales, Rubik Poghossian +1

We derive exact formulae for the partition function and the expectation values of Wilson/'t Hooft loops, thus directly checking their S-duality transformations. We focus on a speci…

Unoriented Quivers with Flavour

Massimo Bianchi, Gianluca Inverso, Jose Francisco Morales +1

We discuss unoriented quivers with flavour that arise from D3-branes at local orbifold singularities, in the presence of Omega-planes and non-compact D7-branes. We produce a wide c…
