Loop Equation in Two-dimensional Noncommutative Yang-Mills Theory

Harald Dorn, Alessandro Torrielli

The classical analysis of Kazakov and Kostov of the Makeenko-Migdal loop equation in two-dimensional gauge theory leads to usual partial differential equations with respect to the…

Massive Gravity on a Brane

Z. Chacko, M. Graesser, C. Grojean +1

At present no theory of a massive graviton is known that is consistent with experiments at both long and short distances. The problem is that consistency with long distance experim…

One-loop unitarity of string theories in a constant external background and their Seiberg-Witten limit

A. Bassetto, A. Torrielli, R. Valandro

Perturbative spectra and related factorization properties of one-loop open string amplitudes in the presence of a constant external background B are analysed in detail. While the p…

Influence of Super-Horizon Scales on Cosmological Observables Generated during Inflation

Sabino Matarrese, Marcello A. Musso, Antonio Riotto

Using the techniques of out-of-equilibrium field theory, we study the influence on the properties of cosmological perturbations generated during inflation on observable scales comi…

4-point effective actions in open and closed superstring theory

Osvaldo Chandia, Ricardo Medina

Recently the effective action for the 4-point functions in abelian open superstring theory has been derived, giving an explicit construction of the bosonic and fermionic terms of t…

On higher spins and the tensionless limit of String Theory

A. Sagnotti, M. Tsulaia

We discuss string spectra in the low-tension limit using the BRST formalism, with emphasis on the role of triplets of totally symmetric tensors and spinor-tensors and their general…

Scherk-Schwarz Supersymmetry Breaking with Radion Stabilization

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

We study the issue of radion stabilization within five-dimensional supersymmetric theories compactified on the orbifold S^1/Z_2. We break supersymmetry by the Scherk-Schwarz mechan…

Confinement-deconfinement order parameter and Dirac's quantization condition

Pieralberto Marchetti

We describe a monopole-like order parameter for the confinement-deconfinement transition in gauge theories where dynamical charges and monopoles coexist. It has been recently propo…

Various Faces of Type IIA Supergravity

Igor A. Bandos, Alexei J. Nurmagambetov, Dmitri P. Sorokin

We derive a duality-symmetric action for type IIA D=10 supergravity by the Kaluza-Klein dimensional reduction of the duality-symmetric action for D=11 supergravity with the 3-form…

Unitarity of noncommutative field theories from string theory

Alessandro Torrielli

We improve the study of the lack of perturbative unitarity of noncommutative space-time quantum field theories derived from open string theory in electric backgrounds, enforcing th…

The Affine Connection of Supersymmetric SO(N)/Sp(N) Theories

Marco Matone

We study the covariance properties of the equations satisfied by the generating functions of the chiral operators R and T of supersymmetric SO(N)/Sp(N) theories with symmetric/anti…

On the Chiral Ring of N=1 Supersymmetric Gauge Theories

Marco Matone, Luca Mazzucato

We consider the chiral ring of the pure N=1 supersymmetric gauge theory with SU(N) gauge group and show that the classical relation S^{N^2}=0 is modified to the exact quantum relat…

Two-dimensional non-commutative Yang-Mills theory: coherent effects in open Wilson line correlators

A. Bassetto, G. De Pol, F. Vian

A perturbative calculation of the correlator of three parallel open Wilson lines is performed for the U(N) theory in two non-commutative space-time dimensions. In the large-N plana…

Branched Matrix Models and the Scales of Supersymmetric Gauge Theories

Marco Matone, Luca Mazzucato

In the framework of the matrix model/gauge theory correspondence, we consider supersymmetric U(N) gauge theory with symmetry breaking pattern. Due to the presence of the V…

Chern-kernels and anomaly cancellation in M-theory

Kurt Lechner, Pieralberto Marchetti

This paper deals with magnetic equations of the type dH=J where the current J is a delta-function on a brane worldvolume and H a p-form field strength. In many situations in M-theo…

Bulk fields with general brane kinetic terms

F. del Aguila, M. Perez-Victoria, Jose Santiago

We analyse the effect of general brane kinetic terms for bulk scalars, fermions and gauge bosons in theories with extra dimensions, with and without supersymmetry. We find in parti…

Supersymmetric and Kappa-invariant Coincident D0-Branes

Sudhakar Panda, Dmitri Sorokin

We propose a generic supersymmetric and kappa-invariant action for describing coincident D0-branes with non-abelian matter fields on their worldline. The action is shown to be in a…

Higher Spins from Tensorial Charges and OSp(N|2n) Symmetry

Mikhail Plyushchay, Dmitri Sorokin, Mirian Tsulaia

It is shown that the quantization of a superparticle propagating in an N=1, D=4 superspace extended with tensorial coordinates results in an infinite tower of massless spin states…
