Notes on Fluctuations and Correlation Functions in Holographic Renormalization Group Flows
Oliver DeWolfe, Daniel Z. Freedman
We study the coupled equations describing fluctuations of scalars and the metric about background solutions of N=8 gauged supergravity which are dual to boundary field theories wit…
Uncovering Infinite Symmetries on [p,q] 7-branes: Kac-Moody Algebras and Beyond
Oliver DeWolfe, Tamas Hauer, Amer Iqbal +1
In a previous paper we explored how conjugacy classes of the modular group classify the symmetry algebras that arise on type IIB [p,q] 7-branes. The Kodaira list of finite Lie alge…
Uncovering the Symmetries on [p,q] 7-branes: Beyond the Kodaira Classification
Oliver DeWolfe, Tamas Hauer, Amer Iqbal +1
We begin a classification of the symmetry algebras arising on configurations of type IIB [p,q] 7-branes. These include not just the Kodaira symmetries that occur when branes coales…
Minimal Area Nonorientable String Diagrams
Oliver DeWolfe
We use minimal area metrics to generate all nonorientable string diagrams. The surfaces in unoriented string theory have nontrivial open curves and nontrivial closed curves whose n…
