Charting an Inflationary Landscape with Random Matrix Theory
M. C. David Marsh, Liam McAllister, Enrico Pajer +1
We construct a class of random potentials for N >> 1 scalar fields using non-equilibrium random matrix theory, and then characterize multifield inflation in this setting. By stipul…
New N=1 dualities from orientifold transitions - Part II: String Theory
Iñaki García-Etxebarria, Ben Heidenreich, Timm Wrase
We present a string theoretical description, given in terms of branes and orientifolds wrapping vanishing cycles, of the dual pairs of gauge theories analyzed in 1210.7799. Based o…
Mathieu Moonshine and N=2 String Compactifications
Miranda C. N. Cheng, Xi Dong, John F. R. Duncan +3
There is a `Mathieu moonshine' relating the elliptic genus of K3 to the sporadic group M_{24}. Here, we give evidence that this moonshine extends to part of the web of dualities co…
