Chern-Simons 5-form and Holographic Baryons

Pak Hang Chris Lau, Shigeki Sugimoto

In the top-down holographic model of QCD based on D4/D8-branes in type IIA string theory and some of the bottom up models, the low energy effective theory of mesons is described by…

Vacuum State of the Dirac Field in de Sitter Space and Entanglement Entropy

Sugumi Kanno, Misao Sasaki, Takahiro Tanaka

We compute the entanglement entropy of a free massive Dirac field between two causally disconnected open charts in de Sitter space. We first derive the Bunch-Davies vacuum mode fun…

Double Field Theory at SL(2) angles

Franz Ciceri, Giuseppe Dibitetto, J. J. Fernandez-Melgarejo +2

An extended field theory is presented that captures the full SL(2) x O(6,6+n) duality group of four-dimensional half-maximal supergravities. The theory has section constraints whos…

Stable solutions of inflation driven by vector fields

Razieh Emami, Shinji Mukohyama, Ryo Namba +1

Many models of inflation driven by vector fields alone have been known to be plagued by pathological behaviors, namely ghost and/or gradient instabilities. In this work, we seek a…

Bell Inequality in the Holographic EPR Pair

Jiunn-Wei Chen, Sichun Sun, Yun-Long Zhang

We study the Bell inequality in a holographic model of the casually disconnected Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) pair. The Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt(CHSH) form of Bell inequality is…

Notes on the Wess-Zumino-Witten-like structure: triplet and NS-NS superstring field theory

Hiroaki Matsunaga

In the NS-NS sector of superstring field theory, there potentially exist three nilpotent generators of gauge transformations and two constraint equations: It makes the gauge algebr…

Yang-Baxter deformations of and the associated T-dual models

Jun-ichi Sakamoto, Kentaroh Yoshida

Recently, for principal chiral models and symmetric coset sigma models, Hoare and Tseytlin proposed an interesting conjecture that the Yang-Baxter deformations with the homogeneous…

Space-time supersymmetry in WZW-like open superstring field theory

Hiroshi Kunitomo

We investigate space-time supersymmetry in the WZW-like open superstring field theory, whose complete action was recently constructed. Starting from a natural space-time supersymme…

On the surface of superfluids

Jay Armas, Jyotirmoy Bhattacharya, Akash Jain +1

Developing on a recent work on localized bubbles of ordinary relativistic fluids, we study the comparatively richer leading order surface physics of relativistic superfluids, coupl…

Lattice Simulations of 10d Yang-Mills toroidally compactified to 1d, 2d and 4d

Masanori Hanada, Paul Romatschke

Toroidally compactified Yang-Mills theory on the lattice is studied by using the Hybrid Monte Carlo algorithm. When the compact dimensions are small, the theory naturally reduces t…

Some Relations for Quark Confinement and Chiral Symmetry Breaking in QCD

Hideo Suganuma, Takahiro M. Doi, Krzysztof Redlich +1

We analytically study the relation between quark confinement and spontaneous chiral-symmetry breaking in QCD. In terms of the Dirac eigenmodes, we derive some formulae for the Poly…

Role of matter in extended quasidilaton massive gravity

A. Emir Gumrukcuoglu, Kazuya Koyama, Shinji Mukohyama

The extended quasidilaton theory is one of the simplest Lorentz-invariant massive gravity theories which can accommodate a stable self-accelerating vacuum solution. In this paper w…

Holographic QCD for H-dibaryon (uuddss)

Hideo Suganuma, Kohei Matsumoto

The H-dibaryon (uuddss) is studied in holographic QCD for the first time. In holographic QCD, four-dimensional QCD, i.e., SU() gauge theory with chiral quarks, can be formulat…

A Study of the H-dibaryon in Holographic QCD

Kohei Matsumoto, Yuya Nakagawa, Hideo Suganuma

We study the H-dibaryon (uuddss) in holographic QCD for the first time. Holographic QCD is derived from a QCD-equivalent D-brane system (-compactified D4/D8/$\overline{\rm D8}…

A Note on Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev Like Model without Random Coupling

Takahiro Nishinaka, Seiji Terashima

We study a description of the large N limit of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model in terms of quantum mechanics without quenched disorder. Instead of random couplings, we introduce…

Black Holes and Random Matrices

Jordan S. Cotler, Guy Gur-Ari, Masanori Hanada +6

We argue that the late time behavior of horizon fluctuations in large anti-de Sitter (AdS) black holes is governed by the random matrix dynamics characteristic of quantum chaotic s…
