Dynamics of supersymmetric field theories in 2+1 dimensions and their gravity dual
William Cottrell, James Hanson, Akikazu Hashimoto
In this note we consider SYM theories in 2+1 dimensions with gauge group and hypermultiplets charged under the . When , the the…
Intersecting D3-D3' system at finite temperature
William Cottrell, James Hanson, Akikazu Hashimoto +2
We analyze the dynamics of intersecting D3/D3' brane system overlapping in 1+1 dimensions, in a holographic treatment where D3-branes are manifested as anti-de-Sitter Schwartzs…
On Axionic Field Ranges, Loopholes and the Weak Gravity Conjecture
Jon Brown, William Cottrell, Gary Shiu +1
In this short note we clarify some aspects of the impact that the Weak Gravity Conjecture has on models of (generalized) natural inflation. We address in particular certain technic…
Fencing in the Swampland: Quantum Gravity Constraints on Large Field Inflation
Jon Brown, William Cottrell, Gary Shiu +1
In this note we show that models of natural inflation based on closed string axions are incompatible with the weak gravity conjecture (WGC). Specifically, we use T-duality in order…
Comments on s-rule violating configurations in field theory
William Cottrell, Akikazu Hashimoto, Mohandas Pillai
We explicitly construct a configuration of supersymmetry Yang-Mills theory with gauge group on an interval on length with a D5-like boundary condition on on…
