Landau-Ginzburg description of an exceptional minimal model

Yu Nakayama, Andrei Katsevich, Igor R. Klebanov +1

The superconformal minimal model with and the exceptional modular invariant is the unitary minimal model of the super- algebra. We propose it…

RG flows, Non-Invertible Symmetries and Matrix Factorisations

Federico Ambrosino, Matthias R. Gaberdiel, Yu Nakayama

We study the behaviour of the topological defect lines of the minimal models that are preserved by the least relevant perturbation to first order. It is u…

Interior zeros of supersymmetric indices

Yu Nakayama, Tadashi Okazaki

A supersymmetric index has interior zeros () if and only if the arithmetic coefficients underlying the supersymmetric zeta function grow exponentially at a rate set b…

Holographic spectral functions for Sasaki-Einstein 5-manifolds

Yu Nakayama, Tadashi Okazaki

We investigate holographic spectral functions for general Sasaki-Einstein 5-manifolds dual to four-dimensional superconformal field theories, including supersymmetric indices, supe…

ADE triality via (non-)invertible symmetry gauging

Takahilo Tanaka, Yu Nakayama

It is long known that A-series minimal models and D-series minimal models are exchanged by gauging the invertible symmetry. More recently, it has been shown that A-s…

c-Theorem and improvement in non-compact conformal field theories

Nanami Nakamura, Yu Nakayama

Energy-momentum tensor in general conformal field theories have improvement ambiguity and it can affect the argument in deriving -theorem. While the derivation of Zamolodchikov'…

Is chiral supersymmetry emanant or emergent?

Yu Nakayama

The extended Majorana Nicolai model is one of the simplest models of supersymmetry realized on a fermionic chain in dimensions. Within a certain parameter region, the extende…

Infinitely many new renormalization group flows between Virasoro minimal models from non-invertible symmetries

Takahilo Tanaka, Yu Nakayama

Based on the study of non-invertible symmetries, we propose there exist infinitely many new renormalization group flows between Virasoro minimal models $\mathcal{M}(kq + I, q) \to\…

Convexity restoration from hairy black hole in Einstein-Maxwell-charged scalar system in AdS

Takaaki Ishii, Yu Nakayama

In the Einstein-Maxwell-charged scalar system with a negative cosmological constant in arbitrary dimensions higher than three, there exists a horizonless charged soliton solution,…
