6D SCFTs and Gravity

Michele Del Zotto, Jonathan J. Heckman, David R. Morrison +1

We study how to couple a 6D superconformal field theory (SCFT) to gravity. In F-theory, the models in question are obtained working on the supersymmetric background R^{5,1} x B whe…

Algebraic structure of equations for Calabi-Yau sigma models

Murad Alim

The equations define a flat connection on the moduli spaces of quantum field theories. For conformal theories with , which can be realized as nonli…

Gravitational Memory, BMS Supertranslations and Soft Theorems

Andrew Strominger, Alexander Zhiboedov

The transit of a gravitating radiation pulse past arrays of detectors stationed near future null infinity in the vacuum is considered. It is shown that the relative positions and c…

Global aspects of (0,2) moduli space: toric varieties and tangent bundles

Ron Donagi, Zhentao Lu, Ilarion V. Melnikov

We study the moduli space of A/2 half-twisted gauged linear sigma models for NEF Fano toric varieties. Focusing on toric deformations of the tangent bundle, we describe the vacuum…

Little String Amplitudes (and the Unreasonable Effectiveness of 6D SYM)

Chi-Ming Chang, Ying-Hsuan Lin, Shu-Heng Shao +2

We study tree level scattering amplitudes of four massless states in the double scaled little string theory, and compare them to perturbative loop amplitudes in six-dimensional sup…

Poincare Series, 3D Gravity and CFT Spectroscopy

Christoph A. Keller, Alexander Maloney

Modular invariance strongly constrains the spectrum of states of two dimensional conformal field theories. By summing over the images of the modular group, we construct candidate C…

Charged Renyi entropies and holographic superconductors

Alexandre Belin, Ling-Yan Hung, Alexander Maloney +1

Charged Renyi entropies were recently introduced as a measure of entanglement between different charge sectors of a theory. We investigate the phase structure of charged Renyi entr…

An Index Formula for Supersymmetric Quantum Mechanics

Clay Cordova, Shu-Heng Shao

We derive a localization formula for the refined index of gauged quantum mechanics with four supercharges. Our answer takes the form of a residue integral on the complexified Carta…

Extremal Bundles on Calabi-Yau Threefolds

Peng Gao, Yang-Hui He, Shing-Tung Yau

We study constructions of stable holomorphic vector bundles on Calabi-Yau threefolds, especially those with exact anomaly cancellation which we call extremal. By going through the…
