Anomalies of (0,4) SCFTs from F-theory

Christopher Couzens, Huibert het Lam, Kilian Mayer +1

We study the macroscopics of 2d SCFTs arising from F-theory constructions. The class of 2d SCFTs we consider live on black strings which are obtained by wrappin…

Twisted SCFTs and their AdS duals

Christopher Couzens, Huibert het Lam, Kilian Mayer

We study compactifications of an infinite family of four-dimensional SCFTs on a Riemann surface in the presence of arbitrary background fluxes for global symmetries…

Black Holes and (0,4) SCFTs from Type IIB on K3

Christopher Couzens, Huibert het Lam, Kilian Mayer +1

We study the central charges and levels of 2d superconformal field theories that are dual to four- and five-dimensional BPS black holes in compactifications of…

Four-dimensional black hole entropy from F-theory

Thomas W. Grimm, Huibert het Lam, Kilian Mayer +1

We study the central charges and levels of a two-dimensional superconformal field theory describing four-dimensional BPS black holes in F-theory. These arise from D3-bran…

One-modulus Calabi-Yau fourfold reductions with higher-derivative terms

Thomas W. Grimm, Kilian Mayer, Matthias Weissenbacher

In this note we consider M-theory compactified on a warped Calabi-Yau fourfold including the eight-derivative terms in the eleven-dimensional action known in the literature. We dim…

Higher derivatives in Type II and M-theory on Calabi-Yau threefolds

Thomas W. Grimm, Kilian Mayer, Matthias Weissenbacher

The four- and five-dimensional effective actions of Calabi-Yau threefold compactifications are derived with a focus on terms involving up to four space-time derivatives. The starti…
