Minimal Massive Gravity Coupled to Higher Spins
Franz Ciceri, Nihat Sadik Deger, Bastien Duboeuf +1
Among three-dimensional massive gravities, Minimal Massive Gravity (MMG) is distinguished by a parameter regime in which the AdS bulk theory and the dual conformal field theory can…
The matrix edge of holography
Franz Ciceri, Henning Samtleben
The IKKT matrix model arises at the extremal limit of holographic dualities based on D-brane geometries. We review the one-dimensional maximal supergravity that governs…
A supergravity dual for IKKT holography
Franz Ciceri, Henning Samtleben
The IKKT matrix model, from the holographic perspective, arises at the p=-1 endpoint of the family of dualities relating type II supergravities on near-horizon Dp-brane geometries…
Holography for the IKKT matrix model
Franz Ciceri, Henning Samtleben
Holographic dualities that relate type II strings on near-horizon Dp brane geometries to super Yang-Mills theories with sixteen supercharges in p+1 dimensions provide non-conformal…
Torus reduction of maximal conformal supergravity
Franz Ciceri, Axel Kleinschmidt, Subrabalan Murugesan +1
We consider the dimensional reduction of N=(2,0) conformal supergravity in six dimensions on a two-torus to N=4 conformal supergravity in four dimensions. At the level of kinematic…
