Les Houches Lectures on Constructing String Vacua
Frederik Denef
These lectures give a detailed introduction to constructing and analyzing string vacua suitable for phenomenological model building, with particular emphasis on F-theory flux vacua…
Some thoughts about matrix coordinate transformations
J. Adam, B. Janssen, W. Troost +1
Matrix coordinate transformations are defined as substitution operators without requiring an ordering prescription or an inclusion function from the Abelian coordinate transformati…
Killing superalgebra deformations of ten-dimensional supergravity backgrounds
José Figueroa-O'Farrill, Bert Vercnocke
We explore Lie superalgebra deformations of the Killing superalgebras of some ten-dimensional supergravity backgrounds. We prove the rigidity of the Poincare superalgebras in types…
Pseudo-supersymmetry and a Tale of Alternate Realities
E. A. Bergshoeff, J. Hartong, A. Ploegh +2
We discuss how all variant 10d and 11d maximal supergravities, including star supergravities and supergravities in different signatures, can be obtained as different real slices of…
Kaluza-Klein Induced Supersymmetry Breaking for Braneworlds in Type IIB Supergravity
Jean-Luc Lehners, Paul Smyth, K. S. Stelle
We consider Z_2-symmetric braneworlds arising from 5-sphere compactifications with 5-form flux in type IIB supergravity. This Kaluza-Klein reduction produces a D=5 theory which sup…
Splitting of macroscopic fundamental strings in flat space and holographic hadron decays
F. Bigazzi, A. L. Cotrone, L. Martucci +1
In this review article we present the calculation of the splitting rate in flat space of a macroscopic fundamental string either intersecting at a generic angle a Dp-brane or lying…
