On the renormalization group flow of f(R)-gravity

Pedro F. Machado, Frank Saueressig

We use the functional renormalization group equation for quantum gravity to construct a non-perturbative flow equation for modified gravity theories of the form $S = \int d^dx \sqr…

Dissociation by acceleration

Kasper Peeters, Marija Zamaklar

We show that mesons, described using rotating relativistic strings in a holographic setup, undergo dissociation when their acceleration 'a' exceeds a value which scales with the an…

Recent results in four-dimensional non-perturbative string theory

Frank Saueressig

We review recent progress in understanding non-perturbative instanton corrections to the hypermultiplet moduli space in type II string compactifications on Calabi-Yau threefolds.

On String S-matrix, Bound States and TBA

Gleb Arutyunov, Sergey Frolov

The study of finite J effects for the light-cone AdS superstring by means of the Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz requires an understanding of a companion 2d theory which we call the mir…

Rho meson condensation at finite isospin chemical potential in a holographic model for QCD

Ofer Aharony, Kasper Peeters, Jacob Sonnenschein +1

We analyze the effect of an isospin chemical potential μ_I in the Sakai-Sugimoto model, which is the string dual of a confining gauge theory related to large N_c QCD, at temperatur…

Geometry and dynamics of higher-spin frame fields

Johan Engquist, Olaf Hohm

We give a systematic account of unconstrained free bosonic higher-spin fields on D-dimensional Minkowski and (Anti-)de Sitter spaces in the frame formalism. The generalized spin co…
