Equivariant localization for higher derivative supergravity
Pietro Benetti Genolini, Florian Gaar, Jerome P. Gauntlett +1
Conformal supergravity provides an effective off-shell formalism to study higher derivative actions. We show that the , theory admits equivariantly closed form…
All generalised dilaton theories from gravities
Johanna Borissova
We demonstrate that generic two-dimensional Horndeski theories can arise from the reduction of pure gravities in dimensions, and therefore generic onshell configurations…
Exploring the twisted sector of orbifolds: Matching -corrections to localisation
Carlos Barredo Martínez, Torben Skrzypek
We consider type IIB string theory on orbifold spaces with generic . Recent localisation results in the dual 4d circula…
Scalar field effective potentials in de Sitter spacetime
Lucas Vicente García-Consuegra, Arttu Rajantie
We investigate two different definitions of a scalar field effective potential in quantum field theory in de Sitter spacetime: the standard textbook definition, and the constraint…
Phases of 2d Gauge Theories and Symmetric Mass Generation
Rishi Mouland, David Tong, Bernardo Zan
We study the dynamics and phase structure of Abelian gauge theories in dimensions. These include gauge theory coupled to a scalar and a fermion, as well as the two-f…
Symmetries Beget Symmetries: Ghostly Higher-Form Symmetries and the Descent Equation
Leron Borsten, Dimitri Kanakaris, Hyungrok Kim
Viewed through the lens of the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism, we demonstrate that higher-form currents with nonzero ghost number also define higher-form symmetries, directly analogo…
Sandwich Construction of Symmetry TFTs for the Centre Symmetries of Chern-Simons, Yang-Mills, and Einstein Gravity
Leron Borsten, Dimitri Kanakaris, Hyungrok Kim
We construct symmetry topological field theories (SymTFTs) using the sandwich construction of Pulmann-Ševera-Valach that manifest the centre symmetries of Chern-Simons theory and Y…
Twisted Homotopy Algebras: Supersymmetric Twists, Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking, Anomalies and Localisation
Leron Borsten, Simon Jonsson, Dimitri Kanakaris +1
Twisting and classical background fields are two foundational techniques in supersymmetric quantum field theory, central to developments ranging from the Higgs mechanism to topolog…
Discrete -Form Symmetry and Higher Coulomb Phases
Leron Borsten, Hyungrok Kim
We argue that a field theory with a -form symmetry generically admits, in addition to a Higgs phase and a 'confining' phase, a Coulomb phase in which the infrared…
Duality Anomalies in Linearized Gravity
Leron Borsten, Michael J. Duff, Dimitri Kanakaris +1
Classical linearized gravity admits a dual formulation in terms of a higher-rank tensor field. Proposing a prescription for the instanton sectors of linearized gravity and its dual…
Non-invertible symmetries of two-dimensional Non-Linear Sigma Models
Guillermo Arias-Tamargo, Chris Hull, Maxwell L. Velásquez Cotini Hutt
Global symmetries can be generalised to transformations generated by topological operators, including cases in which the topological operator does not have an inverse. A family of…
Homotopy Manin Theories: Generalising Third-Way, Yang-Mills and Integrable Sigma Models
Alex S. Arvanitakis, Leron Borsten, Dimitri Kanakaris +1
Manin theories are a class of non-topological deformations of Chern-Simons theories that naturally realise the third-way mechanism and furthermore admit localisation despite not be…
Full S-matrices and Witten diagrams with (relative) L-infinity algebras
Luigi Alfonsi, Leron Borsten, Hyungrok Kim +2
The -algebra approach to scattering amplitudes elegantly describes the nontrivial part of the -matrix but fails to take into account the trivial part. We argue that th…
Visions in Quantum Gravity
Luca Buoninfante, Benjamin Knorr, K. Sravan Kumar +36
To deepen our understanding of Quantum Gravity and its connections with black holes and cosmology, building a common language and exchanging ideas across different approaches is cr…
Lectures in Quantum Gravity
Ivano Basile, Luca Buoninfante, Francesco Di Filippo +3
Formulating a quantum theory of gravity lies at the heart of fundamental theoretical physics. This collection of lecture notes encompasses a selection of topics that were covered i…
Giant Gravitons and Volume Minimisation
Heng-Yu Chen, Nick Dorey, Sanefumi Moriyama +2
We establish a precise correspondence between the giant graviton expansion of the superconformal index of field theories in , and the master volume formalism of Gauntlett,…
Orthosymplectic Quotient Quiver Subtraction
Sam Bennett, Amihay Hanany, Guhesh Kumaran
The technique of orthosymplectic quotient quiver subtraction is introduced. This involves subtraction of an orthosymplectic quotient quiver from a orthosymplecti…
Gravity from AKSZ-Manin theories in two, three, and four dimensions
Leron Borsten, Dimitri Kanakaris, Hyungrok Kim
We show that various dynamical gauge theories in two, three and four dimensions, obtained as Manin deformations of topological Alexandrov-Kontsevich-Schwarz-Zaboronsky (AKSZ) theor…
Holography and the Hilbert Scheme
Samuel Crew, Daniel Zhang, Ziruo Zhang
We elucidate a holographic relationship between the enumerative geometry of the Hilbert scheme of points in the plane , with large, and the entropy of certain…
Quiver Polymerisation
Amihay Hanany, Rudolph Kalveks, Guhesh Kumaran
Two new diagrammatic techniques on quiver gauge theories, termed chain and cyclic quiver polymerisation are introduced. These gauge a diagonal $\mathrm{SU}/\math…
To curve, or not to curve: Is curvature-assisted quintessence observationally viable?
George Alestas, Matilda Delgado, Ignacio Ruiz +3
Single-field models of accelerated expansion with nearly flat potentials, despite being able to provide observationally viable explanations for the early-time cosmic inflation and…
Complexity Measure Diagnostics of Ergodic to Many-Body Localization Transition
Khen Cohen, Yaron Oz, De-liang Zhong
We introduce new diagnostics of the transition between the ergodic and many-body localization phases, which are based on complexity measures defined via the probability distributio…
Microstates of accelerating and supersymmetric AdS black holes from the spindle index
Edoardo Colombo, Seyed Morteza Hosseini, Dario Martelli +2
We provide a first principles derivation of the microscopic entropy of a very general class of supersymmetric, rotating and accelerating black holes in AdS. This is achieved by…
Graphene shapes from quantum elasticity
Pablo A. Morales, Pavel Castro-Villarreal
Temperature constraints are highly desirable in the experimental setup when seeking the synthesis of new carbon structures. Fluctuations of the Dirac field result in temperature-de…
