Is Space a Stronger Resource than Time? Positive Answer for the Nondeterministic at-Least-Quadratic Time Case

Nicola Caporaso

We show that all languages accepted in time f(n) >= n^2 can be accepted in space O(f(n)^{1/2})_and_ in time O(f(n)). The proof is carried out by simulation, based on the idea of gu…

Non-Commutative (Softly Broken) Supersymmetric Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons

Nicola Caporaso, Sara Pasquetti

We study d=2+1 non-commutative U(1) YMCS, concentrating on the one-loop corrections to the propagator and to the dispersion relations. Unlike its commutative counterpart, this mode…

Phase transitions, double-scaling limit, and topological strings

Nicola Caporaso, Luca Griguolo, Marcos Marino +2

Topological strings on Calabi--Yau manifolds are known to undergo phase transitions at small distances. We study this issue in the case of perturbative topological strings on local…

Gauge-Invariant Resummation Formalism and Unitarity in Non-Commutative QED

Nicola Caporaso, Sara Pasquetti

We re-examine the perturbative properties of four-dimensional non-commutative QED by extending the pinch techniques to the theta-deformed case. The explicit independence of the pin…

Black-holes, topological strings and large N phase transitions

N. Caporaso, M. Cirafici, L. Griguolo +3

The counting of microstates of BPS black-holes on local Calabi-Yau of the form is explored by computing the partition…

Topological strings and large N phase transitions II: Chiral expansion of q-deformed Yang-Mills theory

Nicola Caporaso, Michele Cirafici, Luca Griguolo +3

We continue our study of the large N phase transition in q-deformed Yang-Mills theory on the sphere and its role in connecting topological strings to black hole entropy. We study i…
