Colored knot polynomials for Pretzel knots and links of arbitrary genus

D. Galakhov, D. Melnikov, A. Mironov +2

A very simple expression is conjectured for arbitrary colored Jones and HOMFLY polynomials of a rich -parametric family of Pretzel knots and links. The answer for the Jones…

Wall Crossing Invariants: from quantum mechanics to knots

D. Galakhov, A. Mironov, A. Morozov

We offer a pedestrian level review of the wall-crossing invariants. The story begins from the scattering theory in quantum mechanics where the spectrum reshuffling can be related t…

Mixed-symmetry fields in AdS(5), conformal fields, and AdS/CFT

R. R. Metsaev

Mixed-symmetry arbitrary spin massive, massless, and self-dual massive fields in AdS(5) are studied. Light-cone gauge actions for such fields leading to decoupled equations of moti…

Holography beyond conformal invariance and AdS isometry?

A. O. Barvinsky

We suggest that the principle of holographic duality can be extended beyond conformal invariance and AdS isometry. Such an extension is based on a special relation between function…
