Where is M-theory in the space of scattering amplitudes?

Andrea Guerrieri, Harish Murali, Joao Penedones +1

We use the S-matrix bootstrap to carve out the space of unitary, analytic, crossing symmetric and supersymmetric graviton scattering amplitudes in nine, ten and eleven dimensions.…

Generalized quotients and holographic duals for 5d S-fold SCFTs

Fabio Apruzzi, Oren Bergman, Hee-Cheol Kim +1

S-folds of 5d SCFTs, including , which lead to brane webs with 7-branes were discussed recently. We generalize the construction to `fractional quoti…

On the BPS sector in AdS_3/CFT_2 Holography

Emil J. Martinec, Stefano Massai, David Turton

The BPS sector in AdS_3/CFT_2 duality has been fertile ground for the exploration of gauge/gravity duality, from the match between black hole entropy and the CFT elliptic genus to…

Goldstino condensation at large N

Fotis Farakos, Matteo Morittu

We analyze the standard fermionic 4D Volkov-Akulov action with N global non-linear supersymmetries. We find that the stationary points of the system are described by an effective p…

Non-extremal, -corrected black holes in 5-dimensional Heterotic Superstring Theory

Pablo A. Cano, Tomás Ortín, Alejandro Ruipérez +1

We compute the first-order corrections of the non-extremal Strominger-Vafa black hole and its non-supersymmetric counterparts in the framework of the Bergshoeff-de Roo formula…

Gravitational Quadratic-in-Spin Hamiltonian at NNNLO in the post-Newtonian framework

Manoj K. Mandal, Pierpaolo Mastrolia, Raj Patil +1

We present the result of the quadratic-in-spin interaction Hamiltonian for binary systems of rotating compact objects with generic spins, up to NNNLO corrections within the post-Ne…

Quantum Gravity Bounds on N=1 Effective Theories in Four Dimensions

Luca Martucci, Nicolo Risso, Timo Weigand

We propose quantum gravitational constraints on effective four-dimensional theories with N=1 supersymmetry. These Swampland constraints arise by demanding consistency of the worlds…

A fresh view on string orbifolds

Stefano Giaccari, Roberto Volpato

In quantum field theory, an orbifold is a way to obtain a new theory from an old one by gauging a finite global symmetry. This definition of orbifold does not make sense for quantu…

On the Classical Integrability of Root- Flows

Riccardo Borsato, Christian Ferko, Alessandro Sfondrini

The Root- flow was recently introduced as a universal and classically marginal deformation of any two-dimensional translation-invariant field theory. The flow commu…

Consistent Kaluza-Klein truncations and two-dimensional gauged supergravity

Guillaume Bossard, Franz Ciceri, Gianluca Inverso +1

We consider generalized Scherk-Schwarz reductions of E exceptional field theory to D=2 space-time dimensions and in particular construct the resulting scalar potential of all g…

Intersection Numbers from Higher-order Partial Differential Equations

Vsevolod Chestnov, Hjalte Frellesvig, Federico Gasparotto +2

We propose a new method for the evaluation of intersection numbers for twisted meromorphic -forms, through Stokes' theorem in dimensions. It is based on the solution of an $…

The Dark Dimension in a Warped Throat

Ralph Blumenhagen, Max Brinkmann, Andriana Makridou

By combining swampland conjectures with observational data, it was suggested that our universe should lie in an asymptotic region of the quantum gravity landscape. The generalized…

Corrections to AdS Black Hole Thermodynamics from Higher-Derivative Supergravity

Davide Cassani, Alejandro Ruipérez, Enrico Turetta

We study four-derivative corrections to five-dimensional minimal gauged supergravity. We evaluate the on-shell action of the AdS black hole solution with two independent angula…

Maximally symmetric nonlinear extension of electrodynamics and charged particles

Kurt Lechner, Pieralberto Marchetti, Andrea Sainaghi +1

We consider couplings of electrically and magnetically charged sources to the maximally symmetric non-linear extension of Maxwell's theory called ModMax. The aim is to reveal physi…

Stringy multifield quintessence and the Swampland

Max Brinkmann, Michele Cicoli, Giuseppe Dibitetto +1

We consider quintessence models within 4D effective descriptions of gravity coupled to two scalar fields. These theories are known to give rise to viable models of late-time cosmic…

Root- Deformations in Two-Dimensional Quantum Field Theories

Christian Ferko, Alessandro Sfondrini, Liam Smith +1

In this letter we introduce a one-parameter deformation of two-dimensional quantum field theories generated by a non-analytic operator which we call Root-. For a co…

New methods for old problems: vacua of maximal D = 7 supergravities

Dario Partipilo

Finding vacua of supergravity theories is an outstanding problem which has been tackled in several ways, and with this work we add a new method to the puzzle. We analyse the scalar…

O6-plane backreaction on scale-separated Type IIA AdS vacua

Maxim Emelin, Fotis Farakos, George Tringas

We evaluate the backreaction of O6-planes in scale-separated flux vacua of massive Type IIA. Using the appropriate flux scaling we show that the corrections to the v…
