Superconformal Symmetry and Index Theory
Joris Raeymaekers, Canberk Sanli, Dieter Van den Bleeken
Formulation and supersymmetry localization of superconformal indices for superconformal quantum mechanics are reviewed by providing a generalization to fixed point…
Superconformal indices and localization in quantum mechanics
Joris Raeymaekers, Canberk Sanli, Dieter Van den Bleeken
Superconformal `type B' quantum mechanical sigma models arise in a variety of interesting contexts, such as the description of D-brane bound states in an AdS decoupling limit.…
Particle dynamics on torsional galilean spacetimes
José Figueroa-O'Farrill, Can Görmez, Dieter Van den Bleeken
We study free particle motion on homogeneous kinematical spacetimes of galilean type. The three well-known cases of Galilei and (A)dS--Galilei spacetimes are included in our analys…
The geometry of gauged (super)conformal mechanics
Delaram Mirfendereski, Joris Raeymaekers, Canberk Şanlı +1
Motivated by recently explored examples, we undertake a systematic study of conformal invariance in one-dimensional sigma models where an isometry group has been gauged. Perhaps su…
Chiral boundary conditions for singletons and W-branes
Joris Raeymaekers, Dieter Van den Bleeken
We revisit the holographic dictionary for a free massless scalar in AdS, focusing on the `singleton' solutions for which the boundary profile is an arbitrary chiral function. W…
Semiclassical framed BPS states
Gregory W. Moore, Andrew B. Royston, Dieter Van den Bleeken
We provide a semiclassical description of framed BPS states in four-dimensional N = 2 super Yang-Mills theories probed by 't Hooft defects, in terms of a supersymmetric quantum mec…
L^2-Kernels Of Dirac-Type Operators On Monopole Moduli Spaces
Gregory W. Moore, Andrew B. Royston, Dieter Van den Bleeken
We state some mathematical predictions concerning the kernels of Dirac-type operators on moduli spaces of (singular) monopoles in R^3. These predictions follow from the semiclassic…
Newton-Cartan, Galileo-Maxwell and Kaluza-Klein
Dieter Van den Bleeken, Cagin Yunus
We study Kaluza-Klein reduction in Newton-Cartan gravity. In particular we show that dimensional reduction and the nonrelativistic limit commute. The resulting theory contains Gali…
Microstate solutions from black hole deconstruction
Joris Raeymaekers, Dieter Van den Bleeken
We present a new family of asymptotic AdS_3 x S^2 solutions to eleven dimensional supergravity compactified on a Calabi-Yau threefold. They originate from the backreaction of S^2-w…
A supersymmetric reduction on the three-sphere
Nihat Sadik Deger, Henning Samtleben, Ozgur Sarioglu +1
We present the embedding of three-dimensional SO(4) gauged supergravity with quaternionic target space SO(4,4)(SO(4)SO(4)) into , $N=(1,0…
Unlocking the Axion-Dilaton in 5D Supergravity
Joris Raeymaekers, Dieter Van den Bleeken
We revisit supersymmetric solutions to five dimensional ungauged N=1 supergravity with dynamic hypermultiplets. In particular we focus on a truncation to the axion-dilaton containe…
Brane bending and monopole moduli
Gregory W. Moore, Andrew B. Royston, Dieter Van den Bleeken
We study intersecting brane systems that realize a class of singular monopole configurations in four-dimensional Yang-Mills-Higgs theory. Singular monopoles are solutions to the Bo…
Parameter counting for singular monopoles on R^3
Gregory W. Moore, Andrew B. Royston, Dieter Van den Bleeken
We compute the dimension of the moduli space of gauge-inequivalent solutions to the Bogomolny equation on R^3 with prescribed singularities corresponding to the insertion of a fini…
Chronology protection and the stringy exclusion principle
Joris Raeymaekers, Dieter Van den Bleeken, Bert Vercnocke
We construct a family of supersymmetric solutions to AdS supergravity in three dimensions, that correspond to type IIB seven branes wrapped on an internal S3xT4. These solutions ar…
Relating chronology protection and unitarity through holography
Joris Raeymaekers, Dieter Van den Bleeken, Bert Vercnocke
We give a simple nonsupersymmetric example in which chronology protection follows from unitarity and the AdS/CFT correspondence. We consider a ball of homogeneous, rotating dust in…
Godel space from wrapped M2-branes
Thomas S. Levi, Joris Raeymaekers, Dieter Van den Bleeken +2
We show that M-theory admits a supersymmetric compactification to the Godel universe of the form Godel3 x S2 x CY3. We interpret this geometry as coming from the backreaction of M2…
A bound on the entropy of supergravity?
Jan de Boer, Sheer El-Showk, Ilies Messamah +1
We determine, in two independent ways, the number of BPS quantum states arising from supergravity degrees of freedom in a system with fixed total D4D0 charge. First, we count state…
Quantizing N=2 Multicenter Solutions
Jan de Boer, Sheer El-Showk, Ilies Messamah +1
N=2 supergravity in four dimensions, or equivalently N=1 supergravity in five dimensions, has an interesting set of BPS solutions that each correspond to a number of charged center…
Black hole bound states in AdS_3 x S^2
Jan de Boer, Frederik Denef, Sheer El-Showk +2
We systematically construct the geometries dual to the 1+1 dimensional (0,4) conformal field theories that arise in the low-energy description of wrapped M5-branes in S^1 x CY_3 co…
Black Hole Deconstruction
Frederik Denef, Davide Gaiotto, Andrew Strominger +2
A D4-D0 black hole can be deconstructed into a bound state of D0 branes with a D6-anti-D6 pair containing worldvolume fluxes. The exact spacetime solution is known and resembles a…
