EFT strings and emergence
Fernando Marchesano, Luca Melotti
We revisit the Emergence Proposal in 4d vector multiplet sectors that arise from type II string Calabi--Yau compactifications, with emphasis on the role of axionic fun…

Self-interacting chiral p-forms in higher dimensions
Ginevra Buratti, Kurt Lechner, Luca Melotti
There exists no natural variational principle for the dynamics of abelian p-form potentials with self-dual field strengths, also called chiral p-forms. Relying on the PST method, w…

Duality invariant self-interactions of abelian p-forms in arbitrary dimensions
Ginevra Buratti, Kurt Lechner, Luca Melotti
We analyze non-linear interactions of 2N-form Maxwell fields in a space-time of dimension D=4N. Based on the Pasti-Sorokin-Tonin (PST) method, we derive the general consistency con…
