Wild Quiver Gauge Theories

Giulio Bonelli, Kazunobu Maruyoshi, Alessandro Tanzini

We study N=2 supersymmetric SU(2) gauge theories coupled to non-Lagrangian superconformal field theories induced by compactifying the six dimensional A_1 (2,0) theory on Riemann su…

Aspects of Plane Wave (Matrix) String Dynamics

Matthias Blau, Martin O'Loughlin, Lorenzo Seri

We analyse two issues that arise in the context of (matrix) string theories in plane wave backgrounds, namely (1) the use of Brinkmann- versus Rosen-variables in the quantum theory…

Entanglement entropy of two disjoint intervals from fusion algebra of twist fields

M. A. Rajabpour, F. Gliozzi

We study the entanglement and Renyi entropies of two disjoint intervals in minimal models of conformal field theory. We use the conformal block expansion and fusion rules of twist…

M5-branes, toric diagrams and gauge theory duality

Ling Bao, Elli Pomoni, Masato Taki +1

In this article we explore the duality between the low energy effective theory of five-dimensional N=1 SU(N)^{M-1} and SU(M)^{N-1} linear quiver gauge theories compactified on S^1.…

Horava-Lifshitz gravity: detailed balance revisited

Daniele Vernieri, Thomas P. Sotiriou

We attempt a critical reconsideration of "detailed balance" as a principle that can be used to restrict the proliferation of couplings in Horava-Lifshitz gravity. We re-examine the…

More Arnold's N = 2 superconformal gauge theories

Michele Del Zotto

We study the N = 2 gauge theories obtained by engineering the Type IIB superstring on the quasi-homogeneous elements of Arnold's list of bimodal singularities. All these theories h…
