Counting BPS states of the M-5brane
G. Bonelli
An on-shell model for the supersymmetric index counting multiplicities of BPS states of the M5-brane theory is reviewed. In particular we explicitly study the tensionless Little St…
Gravity-Trapping Domain Walls From Resolved Branes
J. F. Vazquez-Poritz
All previous Randall-Sundrum type models have required a Z_2 identification source which does not have a known string theoretic origin. We show that the near-horizon of various res…
Multi-graviton theories : yes-go and no-go results
Nicolas Boulanger
We report yes-go and no-go results on consistent cross-couplings for a collection of gravitons. Motivated by the search of theories where multiplets of massless spin-two fields cro…
Comments on duality-symmetric theories
Xavier Bekaert, Sorin Cucu
We briefly review the basics of electric-magnetic duality symmetry and their geometric interpretation in the M-theory context. Then we recall some no-go theorems that prevent a sim…
The M5-brane on K3 and del Pezzo's and multi-loop string amplitudes
G. Bonelli
We study the BPS spectrum of Little String Theory for bound states of M5-branes wrapped on six manifold of product topology and the apparence of multi-loop -funct…
Covariant theory of asymptotic symmetries, conservation laws and central charges
Glenn Barnich, Friedemann Brandt
Under suitable assumptions on the boundary conditions, it is shown that there is a bijective correspondence between equivalence classes of asymptotic reducibility parameters and as…
Massive Gravity on a Non-extremal Brane
J. F. Vazquez-Poritz
We consider a brane world scenario which arises as the near-horizon region of a non-extremal D5-brane. There is a quasi-localized massive graviton mode, as well as harmonic modes o…
Investigating Brane Resolution With Perturbative Dynamics
J. F. Vazquez-Poritz
We investigate the transition between singular and non-singular geometries from the vantage point of perturbative field dynamics. In particular, we obtain the closed-form absorptio…
Brane fusion in the bosonic string and the emergence of fermionic strings
Francois Englert, Laurent Houart, Anne Taormina
We review the emergence of the ten-dimensional fermionic closed string theories from subspaces of the Hilbert space of the 26-dimensional bosonic closed string theory compactified…
A derivation of Weyl gravity
N. Boulanger, M. Henneaux
In this paper, two things are done. (i) Using cohomological techniques, we explore the consistent deformations of linearized conformal gravity in 4 dimensions. We show that the onl…
Seiberg-Witten maps from the point of view of consistent deformations of gauge theories
G. Barnich, M. Grigoriev, M. Henneaux
Noncommutative versions of theories with a gauge freedom define (when they exist) consistent deformations of their commutative counterparts. General aspects of Seiberg-Witten maps…
Deformations of duality-symmetric theories
Xavier Bekaert, Sorin Cucu
We prove that a sum of free non-covariant duality-symmetric actions does not allow consistent, continuous and local self-interactions that deform the gauge transformations. For ins…
Instability of Non-Commutative SYM Theories at Finite Temperature
Karl Landsteiner, Esperanza Lopez, Michel H. G. Tytgat
We extend our previous work on the quasi-particle excitations in N=4 non-commutative U(1) Yang-Mills theory at finite temperature. We show that above some critical temperature ther…
Hyperbolic Kac-Moody Algebras and Chaos in Kaluza-Klein Models
Thibault Damour, Marc Henneaux, Bernard Julia +1
Some time ago, it was found that the never-ending oscillatory chaotic behaviour discovered by Belinsky, Khalatnikov and Lifshitz (BKL) for the generic solution of the vacuum Einste…
