String dualities and wedge singularities

Ivano Basile, Dieter Lust

We study strings propagating in backgrounds with a wedge singularity, namely whose internal sector describes a wedge sum of closed manifolds. We focus on the wedge sum of two circl…

Supersymmetry, Large Extra Dimensions and the Gravitino Conjecture

Leonardo Bersigotti, Dieter Lust, Marco Scalisi

We investigate whether the absence of experimental signals for supersymmetry and extra dimensions can be understood as a correlated phenomenon. Assuming the Gravitino Conjecture, w…

On the correspondence between black holes, domain walls and fluxes

Niccolò Cribiori, Alessandra Gnecchi, Dieter Lust +1

We revisit and extend the correspondence between black holes, domain walls and fluxes in type IIA compactifications. We argue that these three systems can be described by the same…

Islands and Light Gravitons in type IIB String Theory

Saskia Demulder, Alessandra Gnecchi, Ioannis Lavdas +1

We consider the setup of an evaporating black hole in AdS coupled to an external bath, embedded in type IIB string theory. We study quantum extremal islands in these backgrou…

Geometric Flow of Bubbles

Davide De Biasio, Dieter Lust

In this work we derive a class of geometric flow equations for metric-scalar systems. Thereafter, we construct them from some general string frame action by performing volume-prese…

Toroidal orbifold compactifications at large D and D-duality

Dieter Lust

In this paper I will further investigate the spectrum of quantum gravity or string theories at large number of dimensions. We will see that volumes of certain orbifolds shrink at l…
