U-duality and non-BPS solutions

Gianguido Dall'Agata, Stefano Giusto, Clement Ruef

We derive the explicit action of the U-duality group of the STU model on both BPS and non-BPS extremal multi-center solutions. As the class of known non-BPS extremal solutions is n…

Flow equations and attractors for black holes in N = 2 U(1) gauged supergravity

Gianguido Dall'Agata, Alessandra Gnecchi

We investigate the existence of supersymmetric static dyonic black holes with spherical horizon in the context of N= 2 U(1) gauged supergravity in four dimensions. We analyze the c…

Ultraviolet singularities in classical brane theory

Kurt Lechner

We construct for the first time an energy-momentum tensor for the electromagnetic field of a p-brane in arbitrary dimensions, entailing finite energy-momentum integrals. The constr…

Quantum 't Hooft loops of SYM N=4 as instantons of YM_2 in dual groups SU(N) and SU(N)/Z_N

Antonio Bassetto, Shiyamala Thambyahpillai

A relation between circular 1/2 BPS 't Hooft operators in 4d N=4 SYM and instantonic solutions in 2d Yang-Mills theory (YM_2) has recently been conjectured. Localization indeed pre…

Low-energy effective actions in three-dimensional extended SYM theories

I. L. Buchbinder, N. G. Pletnev, I. B. Samsonov

We develop the background field method in the N=2, d=3 superspace for studying effective actions in three-dimensional SYM models which live in the world-volume of various 2-branes.…

Evidence for the classical integrability of the complete AdS(4) x CP(3) superstring

Dmitri Sorokin, Linus Wulff

We construct a zero-curvature Lax connection in a sub-sector of the superstring theory on AdS(4) x CP(3) which is not described by the OSp(6|4)/U(3) x SO(1,3) supercoset sigma-mode…

A supersymmetric consistent truncation for conifold solutions

Davide Cassani, Anton F. Faedo

We establish a supersymmetric consistent truncation of type IIB supergravity on the T^{1,1} coset space, based on extending the Papadopoulos-Tseytlin ansatz to the full set of SU(2…

Functional Renormalization of Noncommutative Scalar Field Theory

Tim A. Koslowski, Alessandro Sfondrini

In this paper we apply the Functional Renormalization Group Equation (FRGE) to the non-commutative scalar field theory proposed by Grosse and Wulkenhaar. We derive the flow equatio…

Quantum properties of the heterotic five-brane

Kurt Lechner

We find that the conjectured heterotic SO(32) five-brane sigma model develops necessarily k-anomalies, and we investigate their form. We show that these anomalies can be absorbed b…

D=10 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory at alpha'^4

P. S. Howe, U. Lindstrom, L. Wulff

The deformation of D=10 SYM is the natural generalisation of the term in the abelian Born-Infeld theory. It is shown that this deformation can be extended to in…

Type IIB supergravity on squashed Sasaki-Einstein manifolds

Davide Cassani, Gianguido Dall'Agata, Anton F. Faedo

We provide a consistent N=4 Kaluza-Klein truncation of type IIB supergravity on general 5-dimensional squashed Sasaki-Einstein manifolds. Our reduction ansatz keeps all and only th…

Pure Spinor Approach to Type IIA Superstring Sigma Models and Free Differential Algebras

Mario Tonin

This paper considers the Free Differential Algebra and rheonomic parametrization of type IIA Supergravity, extended to include the BRS differential and the ghosts. We consider not…
