Boundary Layers and One-point Functions in the Presence of Monodromy Defects
Hugo Calvo Castro, Ignacio Carreño Bolla, Diego Rodriguez-Gomez
We study one-point functions of composites of charge operators in the presence of a monodromy defect for a global symmetry with monodromy . We first compute these in…

Connecting boundary entropy and effective central charge at holographic interfaces
Evangelos Afxonidis, Ignacio Carreño Bolla, Carlos Hoyos +1
The entanglement entropy of intervals in interface CFTs is modified in two ways compared to a CFT without interface: there is a finite boundary entropy contribution, and, for…

The 5d Tangram: Brane Webs, 7-Branes and Primitive T-cones
Ignacio Carreño Bolla, Sebastián Franco, Diego RodrÃguez-Gómez
Two highly successful approaches to constructing 5d SCFTs are geometric engineering using M-theory on a Calabi-Yau 3-fold and the use of 5-brane webs suspended from 7-branes in Typ…
