Introduction to abelian anyons in planar systems

Pieralberto Marchetti

This paper is a review of the theory of abelian anyons in planar systems at an introductory level and with focus on the formalism of quantum field theory, but with the aim of clari…

Instabilities in scale-separated Casimir vacua

Miquel Aparici, Ivano Basile, Nicolò Risso

Parametric scale separation is notoriously difficult to achieve in flux compactifications of gravitational effective theories. An appealing alternative to conventional Freund-Rubin…

Bubbling saddles of the gravitational index

Davide Cassani, Alejandro Ruipérez, Enrico Turetta

We consider the five-dimensional supergravity path integral that computes a supersymmetric index, and uncover a wealth of semiclassical saddles with bubbling topology. These are co…

Covariant Fractons and Weitzenböck Torsion

Davide Rovere

The relation between covariant fracton gauge theory and Moller-Hayashi-Shirafuji theory of gravity is investigated. The former is the gauge theory of a rank-two symmetric tensor wi…

On five-dimensional curvature squared supergravity and holography

Gregory Gold, Peng-Ju Hu, Jessica Hutomo +4

In this work, we report the recent progress in obtaining new curvature-squared invariants in 5D, N=1 gauged minimal supergravity. We exhibit the structure of various composite mult…

Non-invertible defects from the Conway SCFT to K3 sigma models I: general results

Roberta Angius, Stefano Giaccari, Sarah M. Harrison +1

We initiate the study of supersymmetry-preserving topological defect lines (TDLs) in the Conway moonshine module . We show that the tensor category of such defects,…

Perturbed symmetric-product orbifold: first-order mixing and puzzles for integrability

Matheus Fabri, Alessandro Sfondrini, Torben Skrzypek

We study the marginal deformation of the symmetric-product orbifold theory Sym which corresponds to introducing a small amount of Ramond-Ramond flux into the dual $AdS_3\t…
