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…
On the Quantum Resolution of Cosmological Singularities using AdS/CFT
Ben Craps, Thomas Hertog, Neil Turok
The AdS/CFT correspondence allows us to map a dynamical cosmology to a dual quantum field theory living on the boundary of spacetime. Specifically, we study a five-dimensional mode…
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…
Effective action for the field equations of charged black holes
Antoine Van Proeyen, Bert Vercnocke
In this article, we consistently reduce the equations of motion for the bosonic N = 2 supergravity action, using a multi-centered black hole ansatz for the metric. This reduction i…
On the YM and QCD spectra from five dimensional strings
A. L. Cotrone
We consider a non-critical five dimensional string setup which could provide a dual description of QCD in the limit of large number of colors and flavors. The model corresponds to…
From ten to four and back again: how to generalize the geometry
Paul Koerber, Luca Martucci
We discuss the four-dimensional N=1 effective approach in the study of warped type II flux compactifications with SU(3)x SU(3)-structure to AdS_4 or flat Minkowski space-time. The…
How many black holes fit on the head of a pin?
Frederik Denef, Gregory W. Moore
The Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of certain black holes can be computed microscopically in string theory by mapping the elusive problem of counting microstates of a strongly gravitat…
Symplectic structure of N=1 supergravity with anomalies and Chern-Simons terms
Jan De Rydt, Jan Rosseel, Torsten T. Schmidt +2
The general actions of matter-coupled N=1 supergravity have Peccei-Quinn terms that may violate gauge and supersymmetry invariance. In addition, N=1 supergravity with vector multip…
E(11) and the Embedding Tensor
E. Bergshoeff, I. De Baetselier, T. Nutma
We show how, using different decompositions of E(11), one can calculate the representations under the duality group of the so--called "de-form" potentials. Evidence is presented th…
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…
Domain-wall/Cosmology correspondence in adS/dS supergravity
Kostas Skenderis, Paul K. Townsend, Antoine Van Proeyen
We realize the domain-wall/cosmology correspondence for (pseudo)supersymmetric domain walls (cosmologies) in the context of four-dimensional supergravity. The OSp(2|4)-invariant an…
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…
Black Hole Deconstruction
Frederik Denef, Davide Gaiotto, Andrew Strominger +2
A D4-D0 black hole can be deconstructed into a bound state of D0 branes with a D6-anti-D6 pair containing worldvolume fluxes. The exact spacetime solution is known and resembles a…
D-brane networks in flux vacua, generalized cycles and calibrations
Jarah Evslin, Luca Martucci
We consider chains of generalized submanifolds, as defined by Gualtieri in the context of generalized complex geometry, and define a boundary operator that acts on them. This allow…
Split States, Entropy Enigmas, Holes and Halos
Frederik Denef, Gregory W. Moore
We investigate degeneracies of BPS states of D-branes on compact Calabi-Yau manifolds. We develop a factorization formula for BPS indices using attractor flow trees associated to m…
On Singleton Composites in Non-compact WZW Models
J. Engquist, P. Sundell, L. Tamassia
We examine the so(2,D-1) WZW model at the subcritical level -(D-3)/2. It has a singular vacuum vector at Virasoro level 2. Its decoupling constitutes an affine extension of the equ…
The Stability of D-term Cosmic Strings
Andres Collinucci, Paul Smyth, Antoine Van Proeyen
In this note, which is based on hep-th/0611111, we review the stability of the static, positive deficit angle D-term string solutions of D=4, N=1 supergravity with a constant Fayet…
Physics of String Flux Compactifications
Frederik Denef, Michael R. Douglas, Shamit Kachru
We provide a qualitative review of flux compactifications of string theory, focusing on broad physical implications and statistical methods of analysis.
Supersymmetric D-branes on flux backgrounds
Luca Martucci
Several aspects concerning the physics of D-branes in Type II flux compactifications preserving minimal N=1 supersymmetry in four dimensions are considered. It is shown how these v…
