Topological Model for Domain Walls in (Super-)Yang-Mills Theories
Markus Dierigl, Alexander Pritzel
We derive a topological action that describes the confining phase of (Super-)Yang-Mills theories with gauge group , similar to the work recently carried out by Seiberg and c…
Scrambling in the Black Hole Portrait
Gia Dvali, Daniel Flassig, Cesar Gomez +2
Recently a quantum portrait of black holes was suggested according to which a macroscopic black hole is a Bose-Einstein condensate of soft gravitons stuck at the critical point of…
Black Holes and Quantumness on Macroscopic Scales
D. Flassig, A. Pritzel, N. Wintergerst
It has recently been suggested that black holes may be described as condensates of weakly interacting gravitons at a critical point, exhibiting strong quantum effects. In this pape…
Localization of gauge fields and Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory
Daniel Flassig, Alexander Pritzel
We propose an explicit model, where an axionic domain wall dynamically localizes a U(1)-component of a nonabelian gauge theory living in a 3+1 dimensional bulk. The effective theor…
On ghosts in theories of self-interacting massive spin-2 particles
Sarah Folkerts, Alexander Pritzel, Nico Wintergerst
We consider general theories of a massive spin-2 particle on a Minkowski background. A decomposition of in terms of helicity eigenstates allows us to directly tes…
