On Instanton Superpotentials, Calabi-Yau Geometry, and Fibrations
Lara B. Anderson, Fabio Apruzzi, Xin Gao +2
In this paper we explore contributions to non-perturbative superpotentials arising from instantons wrapping effective divisors in smooth Calabi-Yau four-folds. We concentrate on th…
On Beurling's uncertainty principle
Xin Gao
We generalise a result of Hedenmalm to show that if a function on is such that $\int_{\mathbb{R}^2} \bigl|f(x) \, \hat f(y)\bigr| \,e^{λ\left|xy\right|} \,dx\,dy =…
A New Construction of Calabi-Yau Manifolds: Generalized CICYs
Lara B. Anderson, Fabio Apruzzi, Xin Gao +2
We present a generalization of the complete intersection in products of projective space (CICY) construction of Calabi-Yau manifolds. CICY three-folds and four-folds have been stud…
Dimensional oxidation and modular completion of non-geometric type IIB action
Xin Gao, Pramod Shukla
Utilizing a setup of type IIB superstring theory compactified on an orientifold of T^6/(Z2xZ2), we propose a modular invariant dimensional oxidation of the four-dimensional scalar…
Phase transitions in a holographic s+p model with backreaction
Zhang-Yu Nie, Rong-Gen Cai, Xin Gao +2
In a previous paper (arXiv:1309.2204, JHEP 1311 (2013) 087), we present a holographic s+p superconductor model with a scalar triplet charged under an SU(2) gauge field in the bulk.…
