Perturbative Corrections to Kahler Moduli Spaces
James Halverson, Hans Jockers, Joshua M. Lapan +1
We propose a general formula for perturbative-in-alpha' corrections to the Kahler potential on the quantum Kahler moduli space of Calabi-Yau n-folds, for any n, in their asymptotic…
Black Hole Monodromy and Conformal Field Theory
Alejandra Castro, Joshua M. Lapan, Alexander Maloney +1
The analytic structure of solutions to the Klein-Gordon equation in a black hole background, as represented by monodromy data, is intimately related to black hole thermodynamics. I…
Black Hole Scattering from Monodromy
Alejandra Castro, Joshua M. Lapan, Alexander Maloney +1
We study scattering coefficients in black hole spacetimes using analytic properties of complexified wave equations. For a concrete example, we analyze the singularities of the Teuk…
Gauge/Gravity Duality in Heterotic String Theory
Fang Chen, Keshav Dasgupta, Joshua M. Lapan +2
Gravity duals for little string theories --- which give rise to four-dimensional theories that undergo permanent confinement in the infrared --- have not been studied in great deta…
Two-Sphere Partition Functions and Gromov-Witten Invariants
Hans Jockers, Vijay Kumar, Joshua M. Lapan +2
Many N=(2,2) two-dimensional nonlinear sigma models with Calabi-Yau target spaces admit ultraviolet descriptions as N=(2,2) gauge theories (gauged linear sigma models). We conjectu…
Nonabelian 2D Gauge Theories for Determinantal Calabi-Yau Varieties
Hans Jockers, Vijay Kumar, Joshua M. Lapan +2
The two-dimensional supersymmetric gauged linear sigma model (GLSM) with abelian gauge groups and matter fields has provided many insights into string theory on Calabi--Yau manifol…
