D-branes in Yang-Mills theory and Emergent Gauge Symmetry
Vijay Balasubramanian, David Berenstein, Bo Feng +1
Four-dimensional supersymmetric SU(N) Yang-Mills theory on a sphere has highly charged baryon-like states built from anti-symmetric combinations of the adjoint scalars. We show tha…
Beyond the veil: Inner horizon instability and holography
Vijay Balasubramanian, Thomas S. Levi
We show that scalar perturbations of the eternal, rotating BTZ black hole should lead to an instability of the inner (Cauchy) horizon, preserving strong cosmic censorship. Because…
Accelerating Universes and String Theory
Vijay Balasubramanian
This article reviews recent developments in the study of universes with a positive cosmological constant in string theory.
String Scattering from Decaying Branes
Vijay Balasubramanian, Esko Keski-Vakkuri, Per Kraus +1
We develop the general formalism of string scattering from decaying D-branes in bosonic string theory. In worldsheet perturbation theory, amplitudes can be written as a sum of corr…
