Constitutive relations, off shell duality rotations and the hypergeometric form of Born-Infeld theory

Paolo Aschieri, Sergio Ferrara, Stefan Theisen

We review equivalent formulations of nonlinear and higher derivatives theories of electromagnetism exhibiting electric-magnetic duality rotations symmetry. We study in particular o…

Fermions, Wigs, and Attractors

L. G. C. Gentile, P. A. Grassi, A. Marrani +1

We compute the modifications to the attractor mechanism due to fermionic corrections. In N=2, D=4 supergravity, at the fourth order, we find a new contribution to the horizon value…

Modular anomaly equation, heat kernel and S-duality in N=2 theories

M. Billó, M. Frau, L. Gallot +2

We investigate epsilon-deformed N=2 superconformal gauge theories in four dimensions, focusing on the N=2* and Nf=4 SU(2) cases. We show how the modular anomaly equation obeyed by…

Non-perturbative aspects of gauge/gravity duality

Marco Billó, Marialuisa Frau, Luca Giacone +1

Recently we provided a microscopic derivation of the exact supergravity profile for the twisted scalar field emitted by systems of fractional D3-branes at a Z2 orbifold singularity…

A Note on the Field-Theoretical Description of Superfluids

L. Andrianopoli, R. D'Auria, P. A. Grassi +1

Recently, a Lagrangian description of superfluids attracted some interest from the fluid/gravity-correspondence viewpoint. In this respect, the work of Dubovksy et al. has proposed…

Entropy Current Formalism for Supersymmetric Theories

L. Andrianopoli, R. D'Auria, P. A. Grassi +1

The recent developments in fluid/gravity correspondence give a new impulse to the study of fluid dynamics of supersymmetric theories. In that respect, the entropy current formalism…

Deformed N=2 theories, generalized recursion relations and S-duality

Marco Billo, Marialuisa Frau, Laurent Gallot +2

We study the non-perturbative properties of N=2 super conformal field theories in four dimensions using localization techniques. In particular we consider SU(2) gauge theories, def…

Constitutive relations and Schroedinger's formulation of nonlinear electromagnetic theories

Paolo Aschieri, Sergio Ferrara

We present a systematic study of nonlinear and higher derivatives extensions of electromagnetism. We clarify when action functionals S[F] can be explicitly obtained from arbitrary…

OSp(1|4) supergravity and its noncommutative extension

Leonardo Castellani

We review the OSp(1|4)-invariant formulation of N=1, D=4 supergravity and present its noncommutative extension, based on a star-product originating from an abelian twist with defor…
