BV-BRST Noether theorem
Glenn Barnich, Laurent Baulieu, Marc Henneaux +1
The BRST Noether theorem, or ``Noether's 1.5 theorem'', asserts the triviality of the BRST Noether current. We provide two proofs of this theorem that are both valid without restri…
Higher-form entanglement asymmetry. Part I. The limits of symmetry breaking
Francesco Benini, Eduardo García-Valdecasas, Stathis Vitouladitis
Entanglement asymmetry is a relative entropy that faithfully diagnoses symmetry breaking in quantum states, possibly within a spatial subregion. In this work, we extend such framew…
Preface to Fields, Gravity, Strings and Beyond: In Memory of Stanley Deser
Marc Henneaux, Rafael I. Nepomechie, Domenico Seminara
This is a preface to Fields, Gravity, Strings and Beyond, a special issue collection of articles published in J. Phys. A in memory of Stanley Deser.
Infinite-dimensional symmetries in plane wave spacetimes
Emilie Despontin, Stéphane Detournay, Dima Fontaine
We study the asymptotic symmetries of the Nappi-Witten spacetime in four dimensions, a plane wave arising as the Penrose limit of AdS. Imposing suitable boundary cond…
Universal sectors of two-dimensional Carrollian CFTs
Ankit Aggarwal, Arjun Bagchi, Stephane Detournay +3
We revisit modular invariance in two-dimensional Carrollian conformal field theories from a geometric perspective. Focusing on the characters of the induced and highest-weight repr…
Higher-form anomalies and state-operator correspondence beyond conformal invariance
Stathis Vitouladitis
We establish a state-operator correspondence for a class of non-conformal quantum field theories with continuous higher-form symmetries and a mixed anomaly. Such systems can always…
Gravity, finite duality cascades and confinement
Fabrizio Aramini, Riccardo Argurio, Matteo Bertolini +2
Cascading RG flows are characteristic of gauge theories realized by D3-branes probing singularities in the presence of fractional branes. A celebrated example is th…
Anisotropic conformal Carroll field theories and their gravity duals
Emilie Despontin, Stephane Detournay, Sudipta Dutta +1
We investigate anisotropic conformal Carroll field theories and their holographic duals. On the field theory side, we focus on the case with scaling exponent in two and three…
Global variants of theories and Calogero-Moser systems
Jeremías Aguilera Damia, Riccardo Argurio, Antoine Bourget +2
Global variants of four-dimensional gauge theories are specified by their spectrum of genuine Wilson-'t Hooft line operators. The choice of global variant has significant consequen…
U(1) Gauging, Continuous TQFTs, and Higher Symmetry Structures
Adrien Arbalestrier, Riccardo Argurio, Luigi Tizzano
Quantum field theories can exhibit various generalized symmetry structures, among which higher-group symmetries and non-invertible symmetry defects are particularly prominent. In t…
Electromagnetic multipole expansions and the logarithmic soft photon theorem
Geoffrey Compère, Dima Fontaine, Kevin Nguyen
We study the general structure of the electromagnetic field in the vicinity of spatial infinity. Starting from the general solution of the sourced Maxwell equations written in term…
Non-Invertible Symmetry of 4d Maxwell from Continuous Gaugings
Elise Paznokas
We describe the self-duality symmetries for 4d Maxwell theory at any value of the coupling via topological manipulations that include gauging continuous symmetries with flat co…
Towards Quantizing Null p-branes: Light-Cone Gauge Analysis and Physical Hilbert Space
S. Dutta, I. M. Rasulian, M. M. Sheikh-Jabbari +1
We study null -branes, -branes with a Carrollian -dimensional worldvolume embedded in a generic -dimensional flat Minkowski target space. This theory has a generalize…
Non-Invertible T-duality at Any Radius via Non-Compact SymTFT
Riccardo Argurio, Andrés Collinucci, Giovanni Galati +2
We extend the construction of the T-duality symmetry for the 2d compact boson to arbitrary values of the radius by including topological manipulations such as gauging continuous sy…
Quantizing Carrollian field theories
Jordan Cotler, Kristan Jensen, Stefan Prohazka +3
Carrollian field theories have recently emerged as a candidate dual to flat space quantum gravity. We carefully quantize simple two-derivative Carrollian theories, revealing a stro…
Dirichlet Scalar Determinants On Two-Dimensional Constant Curvature Disks
Soumyadeep Chaudhuri, Frank Ferrari
We compute the scalar determinants on the two-dimensional round disks of constant curvature , , for any finite boundary length and mass , with…
On the Symmetry TFT of Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons theory
Riccardo Argurio, Francesco Benini, Matteo Bertolini +2
Three-dimensional Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons theory has the peculiar property that its one-form symmetry defects have non-trivial braiding, namely they are charged under the same symm…
Radiative Asymptotic Symmetries of 3D Einstein-Maxwell Theory
Jorrit Bosma, Marc Geiller, Sucheta Majumdar +1
We study the null asymptotic structure of Einstein-Maxwell theory in three-dimensional (3D) spacetimes. Although devoid of bulk gravitational degrees of freedom, the system admits…
When the moduli space is an orbifold: Spontaneous breaking of continuous non-invertible symmetries
Jeremias Aguilera Damia, Riccardo Argurio, Soumyadeep Chaudhuri
We investigate theories of Nambu-Goldstone bosons where the spontaneously broken continuous symmetry is non-invertible. In such theories, the vacua generically parameterize an orbi…
All near-horizon symmetries of the Schwarzschild black hole in linearised gravity
Ankit Aggarwal, Nava Gaddam
Asymptotic symmetries are known to constrain the infrared behaviour of scattering processes in asymptotically flat spacetimes. By the same token, one expects symmetries of the blac…
Non-invertible symmetries along 4d RG flows
Jeremias Aguilera Damia, Riccardo Argurio, Francesco Benini +3
We explore novel examples of RG flows preserving a non-invertible self-duality symmetry. Our main focus is on quadratic superpotential deformations of 4d $\mathcal{…
Near-Extremal Limits of Warped Black Holes
Ankit Aggarwal, Alejandra Castro, Stéphane Detournay +1
A holographic description of three-dimensional warped black holes suffers from ambiguities due to a seemingly harmless choice of coordinate system. This gives rise to the notion of…

Miguel Chamorro-Burgos, Adolfo Guarino, Colin Sterckx
We use holography and four-dimensional gauged supergravity to collect evidence for a large class of interconnected three-dimensional conform…
Asymptotic gauge symmetries and gauge-invariant Poincaré generators in higher spacetime dimensions
