Impurities Near the Light Cone

Gabriel Cuomo, Simone Giombi, Luigi Tizzano

The lightlike Wilson line cusp underlies the Sudakov double logarithm and is a central ingredient in gauge-theory factorization. We ask what replaces this behavior for general conf…

Bouncing singularities and thermal correlators on line defects

Simone Giombi, Yue-Zhou Li, Jieru Shan

Thermal correlators in holographic conformal field theories are known to exhibit singularities in complex time, sometimes referred to as ``bouncing singularities", which are believ…

Line Defects with a Cusp in Fermionic CFTs

Simone Giombi, Anurag Pendse

We study line defects with a cusp in fermionic CFTs arising as fixed points of scalar-fermion theories with Yukawa interactions. These include the Gross-Neveu-Yukawa model and some…

Worldline approach to vector and antisymmetric tensor fields II

Fiorenzo Bastianelli, Paolo Benincasa, Simone Giombi

We extend the worldline description of vector and antisymmetric tensor fields coupled to gravity to the massive case. In particular, we derive a worldline path integral representat…

Worldline approach to vector and antisymmetric tensor fields

Fiorenzo Bastianelli, Paolo Benincasa, Simone Giombi

The N=2 spinning particle action describes the propagation of antisymmetric tensor fields, including vector fields as a special case. In this paper we study the path integral quant…

Orbifolding the Twistor String

S. Giombi, M. Kulaxizi, R. Ricci +3

The D-instanton expansion of the topological B-model on the supermanifold CP(3|4) reproduces the perturbative expansion of N=4 Super Yang-Mills theory. In this paper we consider or…
