D0-Branes as Instantons in D=4 Super Yang-Mills Theories
J. L. F. Barbon, A. Pasquinucci
We discuss the role of D0-branes as instantons in the construction of SU(N) Super Yang-Mills and Super QCD theories in four space-time dimensions with D4-, D6- and NS-branes. [To a…
Special Kähler Geometry. Does there Exist a Prepotential?
B. Craps, F. Roose, W. Troost +1
A symplectically invariant definition of special Kähler geometry is discussed. Certain aspects hereof are illustrated by means of Calabi-Yau moduli spaces.
Low Energy Tests of the Standard Model from Beta-Decay and Muon Capture
Jan Govaerts
Two recent low energy precision experiments are considered, in order to illustrate how limits set by these measurements for couplings beyond the Standard Model are complementary to…
M 5-brane and superconformal (0,2) tensor multiplet in 6 dimensions
Piet Claus, Renata Kallosh, Antoine Van Proeyen
We present a gauge-fixed M 5-brane action: a 6-dimensional field theory of a self-interacting (0,2) tensor multiplet with 32 worldvolume supersymmetries. The quadratic part of this…
Microscopic derivation of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy formula for non-extremal black holes
K. Sfetsos, K. Skenderis
We derive the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy formula for four and five dimensional non-supersymmetric black holes (which include the Schwarzchild ones) by counting microscopic states.…
Softly Broken MQCD and the Theta Angle
J. L. F. Barbon, A. Pasquinucci
We consider a family of non-supersymmetric MQCD five-brane configurations introduced by Witten, and discuss the dependence of the curves on the microscopic theta angle and its rela…
On the Evaluation of Compton Scattering Amplitudes in String Theory
A. Pasquinucci, M. Petrini
We consider the Compton amplitude for the scattering of a photon and a (massless) ``electron/positron'' at one loop (i.e. genus one) in a four-dimensional fermionic heterotic strin…
The nonminimal scalar multiplet: duality, sigma-model, beta-function
Silvia Penati, Andrea Refolli, Antoine Van Proeyen +1
We compute in superspace the one-loop beta-function for the nonlinear sigma-model defined in terms of the nonminimal scalar multiplet. The recently proposed quantization of this co…
Density Profiles, Casimir Amplitudes and Critical Exponents in the Two Dimensional Potts Model: A Density Matrix Renormalization Study
Enrico Carlon, Ferenc Igloi
We use the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) to perform a detailed study of the critical properties of the two dimensional Q state Potts model, including the magnetizatio…
Further remarks on isospin breaking in charmless semileptonic B decays
G. Lopez Castro, J. H. Munoz, G. Toledo Sanchez
We consider the isospin breaking corrections to charmless semileptonic decays of B mesons. Both, the recently measured branching ratios of exclusive decays by the CLEO Collaboratio…
Critical point shift in a fluid confined between opposing walls
Enrico Carlon, Andrzej Drzewinski
The properties of a fluid, or Ising magnet, confined in a geometry with opposing surface fields at the walls are studied by density matrix renormalization techniq…
A Precision Measurement of Nuclear Muon Capture on 3He
P. Ackerbauer, D. V. Balin, V. M. Baturin +27
The muon capture rate in the reaction mu- 3He -> nu + 3H has been measured at PSI using a modular high pressure ionization chamber. The rate corresponding to statistical hyperfine…
Special geometry in hypermultiplets
J. De Jaegher, B. de Wit, B. Kleijn +1
We give a detailed analysis of pairs of vector and hypermultiplet theories with N=2 supersymmetry in four spacetime dimensions that are related by the (classical) mirror map. The s…
Duality and asymptotic geometries
H. J. Boonstra, B. Peeters, K. Skenderis
We consider a series of duality transformations that leads to a constant shift in the harmonic functions appearing in the description of a configuration of branes. This way, for se…
The long-wavelength behaviour of the exchange-correlation kernel in the Kohn-Sham theory of periodic systems
Ph. Ghosez, X. Gonze, R. W. Godby
The polarization-dependence of the exchange-correlation (XC) energy functional of periodic insulators within Kohn-Sham (KS) density-functional theory requires a …
Stability of Uniform Shear Flow
Jose M. Montanero, Andres Santos, Mirim Lee +2
The stability of idealized shear flow at long wavelengths is studied in detail. A hydrodynamic analysis at the level of the Navier-Stokes equation for small shear rates is given to…
Categorization by a three-state attractor neural network
D. R. C. Dominguez, D. Bollé
The categorization properties of an attractor network of three-state neurons which infers three-state concepts from examples are studied. The evolution equations governing the para…
Parallel dynamics of fully connected Q-Ising neural networks
D. Bollé, G. Jongen, G. M. Shim
Using a probabilistic approach we study the parallel dynamics of fully connected Q-Ising neural networks for arbitrary Q. A Lyapunov function is shown to exist at zero temperature.…
Self-Dual Supergravity from N=2 Strings
J. de Boer, K. Skenderis
A new heterotic N=2 string with manifest target space supersymmetry is constructed by combining a conventional N=2 string in the right-moving sector and a Green-Schwarz-Berkovits t…
Marginally Trapped Surfaces in the Nonsymmetric Gravitational Theory
L. Demopoulos, J. Legare
We consider a simple, physical approach to the problem of marginally trapped surfaces in the Nonsymmetric Gravitational Theory (NGT). We apply this approach to a particular spheric…
Quantization of the complex linear superfield
M. Grisaru, A. Van Proeyen, D. Zanon
The quantization of the complex linear superfield requires an infinite tower of ghosts. We use the Batalin-Vilkovisky method to obtain a gauge-fixed action. In superspace, the meth…
What is Special Kähler Geometry ?
B. Craps, F. Roose, W. Troost +1
The scalars in vector multiplets of N=2 supersymmetric theories in 4 dimensions exhibit `special Kaehler geometry', related to duality symmetries, due to their coupling to the vect…
Effect of Gravity and Confinement on Phase Equilibria: A Density Matrix Renormalization Approach
Enrico Carlon, Andrzej Drzewinski
The phase diagram of the 2D Ising model confined between two infinite walls and subject to opposing surface fields and to a bulk "gravitational" field is calculated by means of den…
