The effective field theory of multi-component fluids
Guillermo Ballesteros, Brando Bellazzini, Lorenzo Mercolli
We study the effective Lagrangian, at leading order in derivatives, that describes the propagation of density and metric fluctuations in a fluid composed by an arbitrary number of…
Superdescendants of the D1D5 CFT and their dual 3-charge geometries
Stefano Giusto, Rodolfo Russo
We describe how to obtain the gravity duals of semiclassical states in the D1-D5 CFT that are superdescendants of a class of RR ground states. On the gravity side, the configuratio…
Two-loop low-energy effective action in Abelian supersymmetric Chern-Simons matter models
I. L. Buchbinder, B. S. Merzlikin, I. B. Samsonov
We compute two-loop low-energy effective actions in Abelian Chern-Simons matter models with N=2 and N=3 supersymmetry up to four-derivative order. Calculations are performed with a…
T-duality revisited
Erik Plauschinn
We revisit the transformation rules of the metric and Kalb-Ramond field under T-duality, and express the corresponding relations in terms of the metric G and the field strength H=d…
Fermions, Wigs, and Attractors
L. G. C. Gentile, P. A. Grassi, A. Marrani +1
We compute the modifications to the attractor mechanism due to fermionic corrections. In N=2, D=4 supergravity, at the fourth order, we find a new contribution to the horizon value…
On the moduli space of spontaneously broken N = 8 supergravity
Francesca Catino, Gianguido Dall'Agata, Gianluca Inverso +1
We analyze the moduli space of spontaneously broken N=8 supergravity theories in 4 dimensions with classical Minkowski vacua. We find that all the known classical vacua, as well as…
A new class of N=1 no-scale supergravity models
Gianguido Dall'Agata, Fabio Zwirner
We introduce a new N=1 no-scale supergravity model with F- and D-term breaking. It contains a single chiral supermultiplet T and a single U(1) vector multiplet U, gauging an axioni…
The M5-brane action revisited
Sheng-Lan Ko, Dmitri Sorokin, Pichet Vanichchapongjaroen
We construct an alternative form of the M5-brane action in which the six-dimensional worldvolume is subject to a covariant split into 3+3 directions by a triplet of auxiliary field…
Two-loop low-energy effective actions in N=2 and N=4 three-dimensional SQED
I. L. Buchbinder, B. S. Merzlikin, I. B. Samsonov
We study two-loop Euler-Heisenberg effective actions in three-dimensional N=2 and N=4 supersymmetric quantum electrodynamics (SQED) without Chern-Simons term. We find exact express…
Exact results in N=2 gauge theories
Francesco Fucito, Jose Francisco Morales, Rubik Poghossian +1
We derive exact formulae for the partition function and the expectation values of Wilson/'t Hooft loops, thus directly checking their S-duality transformations. We focus on a speci…
Unoriented Quivers with Flavour
Massimo Bianchi, Gianluca Inverso, Jose Francisco Morales +1
We discuss unoriented quivers with flavour that arise from D3-branes at local orbifold singularities, in the presence of Omega-planes and non-compact D7-branes. We produce a wide c…
6D microstate geometries from 10D structures
Stefano Giusto, Luca Martucci, Michela Petrini +1
We use the formalism of Generalised Geometry to characterise in general the supersymmetric backgrounds in type II supergravity that have a null Killing vector. We then specify this…
A Naturally Light Dilaton and a Small Cosmological Constant
B. Bellazzini, C. Csaki, J. Hubisz +2
We present a non-supersymmetric theory with a naturally light dilaton. It is based on a 5D holographic description of a conformal theory perturbed by a close-to-marginal operator o…
A review of Axion Inflation in the era of Planck
Enrico Pajer, Marco Peloso
Because the inflationary mechanism is extremely sensitive to UV-physics, the construction of theoretically robust models of inflation provides a unique window on Planck-scale physi…
Duality-symmetric actions for non-Abelian tensor fields
Igor Bandos, Henning Samtleben, Dmitri Sorokin
We construct the duality-symmetric actions for a large class of six-dimensional models describing hierarchies of non-Abelian scalar, vector and tensor fields related to each other…
The Intriguing Structure of Non-geometric Frames in String Theory
Ralph Blumenhagen, Andreas Deser, Erik Plauschinn +2
Non-geometric frames in string theory are related to the geometric ones by certain local O(D,D) transformations, the so-called -transforms. For each such transformation, we show…
On Semiclassical Equivalence of Green-Schwarz and Pure Spinor Strings in AdS(5) x S(5)
Mario Tonin
We present a method to study the equivalence at the semiclassical level of the Green-Schwarz and pure spinor formulations of String Theory in AdS(5) x S(5). This method provides a…
