Loop operators and S-duality from curves on Riemann surfaces
Nadav Drukker, David R. Morrison, Takuya Okuda
We study Wilson-'t Hooft loop operators in a class of N=2 superconformal field theories recently introduced by Gaiotto. In the case that the gauge group is a product of SU(2) group…
Non-relativistic metrics with extremal limits
Emiliano Imeroni, Aninda Sinha
We present solutions of type IIB supergravity with z=2 Schrodinger asymptotics that admit an extremal limit, i.e. the black hole horizon has a double zero. These solutions are obta…
Prospects for constraining quantum gravity dispersion with near term observations
Giovanni Amelino-Camelia, Lee Smolin
We discuss the prospects for bounding and perhaps even measuring quantum gravity effects on the dispersion of light using the highest energy photons produced in gamma ray bursts me…
Quantum-Bayesian Coherence
Christopher A. Fuchs, Ruediger Schack
In a quantum-Bayesian take on quantum mechanics, the Born Rule cannot be interpreted as a rule for setting measurement-outcome probabilities from an objective quantum state. But if…
Group field theory renormalization - the 3d case: power counting of divergences
Laurent Freidel, Razvan Gurau, Daniele Oriti
We take the first steps in a systematic study of Group Field Theory renormalization, focusing on the Boulatov model for 3D quantum gravity. We define an algorithm for constructing…
Inner brane: A D3-brane in the Nappi-Witten model from an inner group automorphism
Yeuk-Kwan E. Cheung, Laurent Freidel
WZW models are abstract conformal field theories with an infinite dimensional symmetry which accounts for their integrability, and at the same time they have a sigma model descript…
