Introduction to abelian anyons in planar systems
Pieralberto Marchetti
This paper is a review of the theory of abelian anyons in planar systems at an introductory level and with focus on the formalism of quantum field theory, but with the aim of clari…
Instabilities in scale-separated Casimir vacua
Miquel Aparici, Ivano Basile, Nicolò Risso
Parametric scale separation is notoriously difficult to achieve in flux compactifications of gravitational effective theories. An appealing alternative to conventional Freund-Rubin…
Bubbling saddles of the gravitational index
Davide Cassani, Alejandro Ruipérez, Enrico Turetta
We consider the five-dimensional supergravity path integral that computes a supersymmetric index, and uncover a wealth of semiclassical saddles with bubbling topology. These are co…
Covariant Fractons and Weitzenböck Torsion
Davide Rovere
The relation between covariant fracton gauge theory and Moller-Hayashi-Shirafuji theory of gravity is investigated. The former is the gauge theory of a rank-two symmetric tensor wi…
On five-dimensional curvature squared supergravity and holography
Gregory Gold, Peng-Ju Hu, Jessica Hutomo +4
In this work, we report the recent progress in obtaining new curvature-squared invariants in 5D, N=1 gauged minimal supergravity. We exhibit the structure of various composite mult…
Non-invertible defects from the Conway SCFT to K3 sigma models I: general results
Roberta Angius, Stefano Giaccari, Sarah M. Harrison +1
We initiate the study of supersymmetry-preserving topological defect lines (TDLs) in the Conway moonshine module . We show that the tensor category of such defects,…
Perturbed symmetric-product orbifold: first-order mixing and puzzles for integrability
Matheus Fabri, Alessandro Sfondrini, Torben Skrzypek
We study the marginal deformation of the symmetric-product orbifold theory Sym which corresponds to introducing a small amount of Ramond-Ramond flux into the dual $AdS_3\t…
Visions in Quantum Gravity
Luca Buoninfante, Benjamin Knorr, K. Sravan Kumar +36
To deepen our understanding of Quantum Gravity and its connections with black holes and cosmology, building a common language and exchanging ideas across different approaches is cr…
Quantum Mechanics from General Relativity and the Quantum Friedmann Equation
Marco Matone, Nikolaos Dimakis
We demonstrate that the recently introduced linear equation, reformulating the first Friedmann equation, is the first-order WKB expansion of a quantum cosmological equation. This r…
Intersection Numbers from Companion Tensor Algebra
Giacomo Brunello, Vsevolod Chestnov, Pierpaolo Mastrolia
Twisted period integrals are ubiquitous in theoretical physics and mathematics, where they inhabit a finite-dimensional vector space governed by an inner product known as the inter…
Running of the Number of Degrees of Freedom in Quantum Conformal Gravity
Stefano Giaccari, Petr Jizba, Jaroslav Kňap +1
We study how the number of degrees of freedom in Weyl conformal gravity runs with the energy scale from the UV fixed point. To this end we employ two approaches. First, we utilize…
Three-point functions of higher-spin supercurrents in 4D SCFT: general formalism for arbitrary superspins
Evgeny I. Buchbinder, Jessica Hutomo, Benjamin J. Stone
We analyse the general structure of the three-point functions involving conserved higher-spin ``vector-like" supercurrents in four-dimensional $\…
Consistency conditions for O-plane unsmearing from second-order perturbation theory
Maxim Emelin
Scale-separated AdS compactifications of string theory can be constructed at the two-derivative supergravity level in the presence of smeared orientifold planes. The unsmearing cor…
Anomalies in Covariant Fracton Theories
Davide Rovere
Covariant (Lorentz invariant) fracton matter, minimally coupled and charged under a symmetric rank two gauge tensor, is considered. The gauge transformations correspond to lineariz…
Waves and strings in an interacting conformal chiral 2-form theory in six dimensions
Nihat Sadik Deger, Ángel J. Murcia, Dmitri P. Sorokin
In six dimensions there exists a unique one-parameter family of non-linear conformal electrodynamics for a chiral 2-form gauge field which includes (in a free-field limit) the line…
Interacting Chiral Form Field Theories and -like Flows in Six and Higher Dimensions
Christian Ferko, Sergei M. Kuzenko, Kurt Lechner +2
In this paper we initiate the study of six-dimensional non-linear chiral two-form gauge theories as deformations of free chiral two-form gauge theories driven by stress-tensor $T\o…
Kodaira-Spencer Anomalies with Stora-Zumino Method
Davide Rovere
Holomorphic diffeomorphism anomalies of -dimensional gravitational theories in Beltrami parametrisation (Kodaira-Spencer anomalies) are computed in the BRST framework, using…
Higher-derivative corrections to flavoured BPS black hole thermodynamics and holography
Davide Cassani, Alejandro Ruipérez, Enrico Turetta
A Cardy-like regime of the four-dimensional superconformal index has been shown to be governed by 't Hooft anomalies and to single out a large- saddle carrying the Bekenstein-Ha…
One-loop effective potential in Scherk-Schwarz compactifications of pure d=5 supergravities
Gianguido Dall'Agata, Fabio Zwirner
We perform a systematic analysis of the one-loop effective potential of pure supergravities, with supersymmetry fully broken by a Scherk-Schwarz compactification on the circl…
Supersymmetric deformation of the model and its conformal limits
Dmitri Bykov, Anton Pribytok
We prove that the supersymmetric deformed sigma model (the generalization of the Fateev-Onofri-Zamolodchikov model) admits an equivalent description as a genera…
Fourier Calculus from Intersection Theory
Giacomo Brunello, Giulio Crisanti, Mathieu Giroux +2
Building on recent advances in studying the co-homological properties of Feynman integrals, we apply intersection theory to the computation of Fourier integrals. We discuss applica…
Superconformal anomalies from superconformal Chern-Simons polynomials
Camillo Imbimbo, Davide Rovere, Alison Warman
We consider the 4-dimensional Lie superconformal algebra and search for completely "symmetric" (in the graded sense) 3-index invariant tensors. The solution we find…
Maximal D=2 supergravities from higher dimensions
Guillaume Bossard, Franz Ciceri, Gianluca Inverso +1
We develop in detail the general framework of consistent Kaluza-Klein truncations from D=11 and type II supergravities to gauged maximal supergravities in two dimensions. In partic…
Renormalizing Love: tidal effects at the third post-Newtonian order
Manoj K. Mandal, Pierpaolo Mastrolia, Hector O. Silva +2
We present the conservative effective two-body Hamiltonian at the third order in the post-Newtonian expansion with gravitoelectric quadrupolar dynamical tidal-interactions. Our der…
