Carroll Geometry Meets De Sitter Space via Holography
Chris D. A. Blair, Niels A. Obers, Ziqi Yan
We explain how to relate the ideas of Carroll geometry, matrix theory on instantonic objects, and infinite boost limits of M-theory. Based on these new insights, we explore the imp…
Matrix Theory Reloaded: A BPS Road to Holography
Chris D. A. Blair, Johannes Lahnsteiner, Niels A. Obers +1
We revisit the decoupling limits that lead to matrix theories on D-branes. We highlight the BPS nature of these limits, in which the target space geometry becomes non-Lorentzian an…
Exact approaches on the string worldsheet
Saskia Demulder, Sibylle Driezen, Bob Knighton +5
We review different exact approaches to string theory. In the context of the Green-Schwarz superstring, we discuss the action in curved backgrounds and its supercoset formulation,…
Worldsheet Formalism for Decoupling Limits in String Theory
Joaquim Gomis, Ziqi Yan
We study the bosonic sector of a decoupling limit of type IIA superstring theory, where a background Ramond-Ramond one-form is fined tuned to its critical value, such that it cance…
Unification of Decoupling Limits in String and M-theory
Chris D. A. Blair, Johannes Lahnsteiner, Niels A. Obers +1
We study and extend the duality web unifying different decoupling limits of type II superstring theories and M-theory. We systematically build connections to different corners, suc…
