TF1 Snowmass Report: Quantum gravity, string theory, and black holes

Daniel Harlow, Shamit Kachru, Juan Maldacena +35

We give an overview of the field of quantum gravity, string theory and black holes summarizing various white papers in this subject that were submitted as part of the Snowmass proc…

Fractons and exotic symmetries from branes

Hao Geng, Shamit Kachru, Andreas Karch +2

The emerging study of fractons, a new type of quasi-particle with restricted mobility, has motivated the construction of several classes of interesting continuum quantum field theo…

Flux Modularity, F-Theory, and Rational Models

Shamit Kachru, Richard Nally, Wenzhe Yang

In recent work, we conjectured that Calabi-Yau threefolds defined over and admitting a supersymmetric flux compactification are modular, and associated to (the Tate tw…

Holographic non-Fermi liquids at large

Shamit Kachru, Milind Shyani

Motivated by the results of Dynamical Mean Field Theory, we study the two-point function of fermions moving in a charged black brane background in in the limit of large…

K3 metrics

Shamit Kachru, Arnav Tripathy, Max Zimet

We provide an explicit construction of Ricci-flat K3 metrics. It employs the technology of D-geometry, which in the case of interest is equivalent to a hyper-Kähler quotient. We re…

Supersymmetric Flux Compactifications and Calabi-Yau Modularity

Shamit Kachru, Richard Nally, Wenzhe Yang

Flux compactification of IIB string theory associates special points in Calabi-Yau moduli space to choices of (pairs of) integral three-form fluxes. In this paper, we propose that…
