Lorentzian Toda field theories
Andreas Fring, Samuel Whittington
We propose several different types of construction principles for new classes of Toda field theories based on root systems defined on Lorentzian lattices. In analogy to conformal a…
On the Hydrodynamics of Unstable Excitations
Olalla A. Castro-Alvaredo, Cecilia De Fazio, Benjamin Doyon +1
The generalized hydrodynamic (GHD) approach has been extremely successful in describing the out-of-equilibrium properties of a great variety of integrable many-body quantum systems…
Quiver Gauge Theories: Beyond Reflexivity
Jiakang Bao, Grace Beaney Colverd, Yang-Hui He
Reflexive polygons have been extensively studied in a variety of contexts in mathematics and physics. We generalize this programme by looking at the 45 different lattice polygons w…
Roadmap on Wilson loops in 3d Chern-Simons-matter theories
Nadav Drukker, Diego Trancanelli, Lorenzo Bianchi +18
This is a compact review of recent results on supersymmetric Wilson loops in ABJ(M) and related theories. It aims to be a quick introduction to the state of the art in the field an…
Entanglement Dynamics after a Quench in Ising Field Theory: A Branch Point Twist Field Approach
Olalla A. Castro-Alvaredo, Máté Lencsés, István M. Szécsényi +1
We extend the branch point twist field approach for the calculation of entanglement entropies to time-dependent problems in 1+1-dimensional massive quantum field theories. We focus…
The Effectiveness of Relativistic Invariance in AdS
Andrea Fontanella, Olof Ohlsson Sax, Bogdan Stefański +2
We use relativistic invariance to investigate two aspects of integrable AdS string theory. Firstly, we write down the all-loop TBA equations for the massless sector of the th…
Entanglement Content of Quantum Particle Excitations II. Disconnected Regions and Logarithmic Negativity
Olalla A. Castro-Alvaredo, Cecilia De Fazio, Benjamin Doyon +1
In this paper we study the increment of the entanglement entropy and of the (replica) logarithmic negativity in a zero-density excited state of a free massive bosonic theory, compa…
Standard Model Plethystics
Yan Xiao, Yang-Hui He, Cyril Matti
We study the vacuum geometry prescribed by the gauge invariant operators of the MSSM via the Plethystic Programme. This is achieved by using several tricks to perform the highly co…
Symmetry Algebras of Stringy Cosets
Dushyant Kumar, Menika Sharma
We find the symmetry algebras of cosets which are generalizations of the minimal-model cosets, of the specific form . We study…
The low-energy limit of AdS/CFT and its TBA
Diego Bombardelli, Bogdan Stefański, Alessandro Torrielli
We investigate low-energy string excitations in AdSST. When the worldsheet is decompactified, the theory has gapless modes whose spectrum at low energies is…
Entanglement Content of Quantum Particle Excitations I. Free Field Theory
Olalla A. Castro-Alvaredo, Cecilia De Fazio, Benjamin Doyon +1
We evaluate the entanglement entropy of a single connected region in excited states of one-dimensional massive free theories with finite numbers of particles, in the limit of large…
LeClair-Mussardo series for two-point functions in Integrable QFT
B. Pozsgay, I. M. Szécsényi
We develop a well-defined spectral representation for two-point functions in relativistic Integrable QFT in finite density situations, valid for space-like separations. The resulti…
Conical Twist Fields and Null Polygonal Wilson Loops
Olalla A. Castro-Alvaredo, Benjamin Doyon, Davide Fioravanti
Using an extension of the concept of twist field in QFT to space-time (external) symmetries, we study conical twist fields in two-dimensional integrable QFT. These create conical s…
The Higher Spin Rectangle
Menika Sharma
The chiral algebra of the symmetric product orbifold of a single-boson CFT corresponds to a "higher spin square" algebra in the large limit. In this note, we show that a symmet…
New Large Volume Solutions
Ross Altman, Yang-Hui He, Vishnu Jejjala +1
In previous work, we have commenced the task of unpacking the reflexive polyhedra by Kreuzer and Skarke into a database of Calabi-Yau threefolds (see http://www.rosse…
Protected string spectrum in AdS3/CFT2 from worldsheet integrability
Marco Baggio, Olof Ohlsson Sax, Alessandro Sfondrini +2
We derive the protected closed-string spectra of AdS3/CFT2 dual pairs with 16 supercharges at arbitrary values of the string tension and of the three-form fluxes. These follow imme…
Massive Corrections to Entanglement in Minimal E8 Toda Field Theory
Olalla A. Castro-Alvaredo
In this letter we study the exponentially decaying corrections to saturation of the second Rényi entropy of one interval of length L in minimal E8 Toda field theory. It has been kn…
Testing R-parity with Geometry
Yang-Hui He, Vishnu Jejjala, Cyril Matti +1
We present a complete classification of the vacuum geometries of all renormalizable superpotentials built from the fields of the electroweak sector of the MSSM. In addition to the…
Compactifications and 1/4-BPS Vacua in Heterotic Supergravity
Stephen Angus, Cyril Matti, Eirik Eik Svanes
We continue the investigation into non-maximally symmetric compactifications of the heterotic string. In particular, we consider compactifications where the internal space is allow…
Entanglement Entropy from Corner Transfer Matrix in Forrester Baxter non-unitary RSOS models
Davide Bianchini, Francesco Ravanini
Using a Corner Transfer Matrix approach, we compute the bipartite entanglement Rényi entropy in the off-critical perturbations of non-unitary conformal minimal models realised by l…
Entanglement Entropy of Non-Unitary Integrable Quantum Field Theory
Davide Bianchini, Olalla A. Castro-Alvaredo, Benjamin Doyon
In this paper we study the simplest massive 1+1 dimensional integrable quantum field theory which can be described as a perturbation of a non-unitary minimal conformal field theory…

Yang-Hui He, James Read
We study Grothendieck's dessins d'enfants in the context of the supersymmetric gauge theories in dimensions with product gauge…
PT-symmetric interpretation of the electromagnetic self-force
Carl M. Bender, Mariagiovanna Gianfreda
In 1980 Englert examined the classic problem of the electromagnetic self-force on an oscillating charged particle. His approach, which was based on an earlier idea of Bateman, was…
Veronese Geometry and the Electroweak Vacuum Moduli Space
Yang-Hui He, Vishnu Jejjala, Cyril Matti +1
We explain the origin of the Veronese surface in the vacuum moduli space geometry of the MSSM electroweak sector. While this result appeared many years ago using techniques of comp…
