Intersection Bounds for BPS Strings in Six-Dimensional Supergravity
Hee-Cheol Kim, Kai Xu
In six-dimensional supergravity, the structure of tensor moduli space is governed by primitive BPS string charges known as BPS generators and their intersection…
On BPS Branes
Cumrun Vafa, David H. Wu, Kai Xu
We study supersymmetric BPS branes (BPS-B) in supergravity theories. Some of these states are anticipated by BPS black-brane (BPS-BB) solutions of supergravity. In particular, we d…
Bounds on Discrete Gauge Symmetries in Supergravity
Zihni Kaan Baykara, Markus Dierigl, Hee-Cheol Kim +2
We place bounds on the order of enhanced discrete gauge symmetries that act on massless fields and thus arise at subloci of the moduli space in supergravity theories. We focus on s…
Finiteness and the Emergence of Dualities
Matilda Delgado, Damian van de Heisteeg, Sanjay Raman +3
We argue that the finiteness of quantum gravity amplitudes in fully compactified theories (at least in supersymmetric cases) leads to a bottom-up prediction for the existence of no…
Finite Landscape of 6d N=(1,0) Supergravity
Hee-Cheol Kim, Cumrun Vafa, Kai Xu
We present a bottom-up argument showing that the number of massless fields in six-dimensional quantum gravitational theories with eight supercharges is uniformly bounded. Specifica…
Black Hole Entropy for M-theory on the Quintic Threefold via F-theoretic Strings
Indranil Halder, Cumrun Vafa, Kai Xu
Microscopic black hole entropy calculations in string theory usually proceeds through identifying them as wrapped strings in one higher dimension. For M-theory on elliptic Calabi-Y…
