Equivalence Postulate and the Quantum Potential of Two Free Particles

Marco Matone

Commutativity of the diagram of the maps connecting three one--particle state, implied by the Equivalence Postulate (EP), gives a cocycle condition which unequivocally leads to the…

Seiberg--Witten Duality in Dijkgraaf--Vafa Theory

Marco Matone

We show that a suitable rescaling of the matrix model coupling constant makes manifest the duality group of the N=2 SYM theory with gauge group SU(2). This is done by first identif…

Equivalent effective Lagrangians for Scherk-Schwarz compactifications

Carla Biggio, Ferruccio Feruglio, Andrea Wulzer +1

We discuss the general form of the mass terms that can appear in the effective field theories of coordinate-dependent compactifications a la Scherk-Schwarz. As an illustrative exam…

The Superembedding Origin of the Berkovits Pure Spinor Covariant Quantization of Superstrings

Marco Matone, Luca Mazzucato, Ichiro Oda +2

We show that the pure spinor formalism proposed by Berkovits to covariantly quantize superstrings is a gauge fixed, twisted version of the complexified n=2 superembedding formulati…

Wilson line correlators in two-dimensional noncommutative Yang-Mills theory

A. Bassetto, F. Vian

We study the correlator of two parallel Wilson lines in two-dimensional noncommutative Yang-Mills theory, following two different approaches. We first consider a perturbative expan…

Cutting rules and perturbative unitarity of noncommutative electric-type field theories from string theory

Alessandro Torrielli

We discuss the breakdown of perturbative unitarity of noncommutative quantum field theories in electric-type background in the light of string theory. We consider the analytic stru…

Symmetry Breaking for Bosonic Systems on Orbifolds

Carla Biggio, Ferruccio Feruglio

We discuss a general class of boundary conditions for bosons living in an extra spatial dimension compactified on S^1/Z_2. Discontinuities for both fields and their first derivativ…

Scaling properties of the perturbative Wilson loop in two-dimensional non-commutative Yang-Mills theory

A. Bassetto, G. Nardelli, A. Torrielli

Commutative Yang-Mills theories in 1+1 dimensions exhibit an interesting interplay between geometrical properties and U(N) gauge structures: in the exact expression of a Wilson loo…

Isocurvature perturbations in the Ekpyrotic universe

A. Notari, A. Riotto

The Ekpyrotic scenario assumes that our visible Universe is a boundary brane in a five-dimensional bulk and that the hot Big Bang occurs when a nearly supersymmetric five-brane tra…

Radiative Scherk-Schwarz supersymmetry breaking

G. v. Gersdorff, M. Quiros, A. Riotto

We analyze the Scherk-Schwarz (SS) supersymmetry breaking in brane-world five dimensional theories compactified on the orbifold . The SS breaking parameter is und…

NS5-branes in IIA supergravity and gravitational anomalies

Marco Cariglia, Kurt Lechner

We construct a gravitational-anomaly-free effective action for the coupled system of IIA D=10 dynamical supergravity interacting with an NS5-brane. The NS5-brane is considered as e…

The beta function of N=1 SYM in Differential Renormalization

J. Mas, M. Perez-Victoria, C. Seijas

Using differential renormalization, we calculate the complete two-point function of the background gauge superfield in pure N=1 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory to two loops. Ultra…

On Anomalies in Orbifold Theories

Luigi Pilo, Antonio Riotto

We study the issue of gauge invariance in five-dimensional theories compactified on an orbifold in the presence of an external U(1) g…
