Anomalies and discrete torsion in Type II and Type I worldsheet theories

Masashi Kawahira, Shotaro Kawanago, Shota Saito +1

We provide a comprehensive study of anomalies and discrete torsion in the worldsheet theories of Type II and Type I string theories on a general ten-dimensional target space. In th…

7-branes and Duality in Type 0B String Theory

Naoto Kan, Masashi Kawahira, Hiroki Wada

We investigate 7-branes in type 0B string theory, motivated by the recent proposal of Baykara, Dudas, and Vafa, which connects type 0B string theory with M-theory. On the -symme…

Emergent higher-form symmetry from type IIB superstring theory

Naoto Kan, Masashi Kawahira, Hiroki Wada

We investigate a higher-form symmetry in type IIB superstring theory, which possesses an symmetry. From the point of view of the low-energy effective field…

Anomalies and D-branes in the Dabholkar-Park background

Hiroki Wada, Satoshi Yamaguchi

We consider D-branes in the Dabholkar-Park (DP) background, a d orientifold theory obtained by gauging symmetry in the type IIB string theory compactified on a circle. Using ano…

Symmetry fractionalization and duality defects in Maxwell theory

Naoto Kan, Kohki Kawabata, Hiroki Wada

We consider Maxwell theory on a non-spin manifold. Depending on the choice of statistics for line operators, there are three non-anomalous theories and one anomalous theory with di…

Higher-group structure in lattice Abelian gauge theory under instanton-sum modification

Naoto Kan, Okuto Morikawa, Yuta Nagoya +1

We consider the gauge theory on a four-dimensional torus, where the instanton number is restricted to an integral multiple of . This theory possesses the nontrivial highe…

Phase structure of linear quiver gauge theories from anomaly matching

Okuto Morikawa, Hiroki Wada, Satoshi Yamaguchi

We consider the phase structure of the linear quiver gauge theory, using the 't Hooft anomaly matching condition. This theory is characterized by the length of the quiver diagr…
