We present a detailed discussion of the duality between dilaton gravity on AdS_2 and open strings. The correspondence between the two theories is established using their symmetries and field theoretical, thermodynamic, and statistical arguments. We use the dual conformal field theory to describe two-dimensional black holes. In particular, all the semiclassical features of the black holes, including the entropy, have a natural interpretation in terms of the dual microscopic conformal dynamics. The previous results are discussed in the general framework of the Anti-de Sitter/Conformal Field Theory dualities.

We study irregular states of rank-two and three in Liouville theory, based on an ansatz proposed by D. Gaiotto and J. Teschner. Using these irregular states, we evaluate asymptotic expansions of irregular conformal blocks corresponding to the partition functions of $(A_1,A_3)$ and $(A_1,D_4)$ Argyres-Douglas theories for general $\Omega$-background parameters. In the limit of vanishing Liouville charge, our result reproduces strong coupling expansions of the partition functions recently obtained via the Painlev\'e/gauge correspondence. This suggests that the irregular conformal block for one irregular singularity of rank 3 on sphere is also related to Painlev\'e II. We also find that our partition functions are invariant under the action of the Weyl group of flavor symmetries once four and two-dimensional parameters are correctly identified. We finally propose a generalization of this parameter identification to general irregular states of integer rank.

We find an exact time-dependent instanton solution on a vacuum Kerr-like warped spacetime in conformal dilaton gravity. Remarkably, the metric solution results from a first-order PDE, allowing the connection with self-duality. The antipodal boundary condition on the hypersurface of a Klein bottle $\sim \mathbb{C}^1\times\mathbb{C}^1$ is applied to describe the Hawking particles. We used the Hopf fibration to get $S^2$ as the black hole horizon, where the centrix is not in a torus but in the Klein bottle. The twist fits very well with the antipodal identification of the point on the horizon. No "cut and past" is necessary, so the Hawing particles remain pure without instantaneous information transport. A local observer passing the horizon will not notice a central singularity in suitable coordinates. The black hole paradoxes are also revisited in our new black hole model. A connection is made with the geomeric quantization of $\mathbb{C}^1\times\mathbb{C}^1\sim S^3$, by considering the symplectic 2-form. The model can be easily extended to the non-vacuum situation by including a scalar field. Both the dilaton and the scalar field can be treated as quantum fields when approaching the Planck area.

We analyze the finite temperature chiral restoration transition of the $(D=d+1)$-dimensional Gross-Neveu model for the case of a large number of flavors and fixed total fermion number. This leads to the study of the model with a nonzero imaginary chemical potential. In this formulation of the theory, we have obtained that, in the transition region, the model is described by a chiral conformal field theory where the concepts of dimensional reduction and universality do apply due to a transmutation of statistics which makes fermions act as if they were bosons, having zero energy. This result should be generic for theories with dynamical symmetry breaking, such as Quantum Chromodynamics.

We propose a novel method to determine the structure of symbols for any family of polylogarithmic Feynman integrals. Using the d log-bases and simple formulas for the leading order and next-to-leading contributions to the intersection numbers, we give a streamlined procedure to compute the entries in the coefficient matrices of canonical differential equations, including the symbol letters and the rational coefficients. We also provide a selection rule to decide whether a given matrix element must be zero. The symbol letters are deeply related to the poles of the integrands and also have interesting connections to the geometry of Newton polytopes. Our method can be applied to many cutting-edge multi-loop calculations. The simplicity of our results also hints at the possible underlying structure in perturbative quantum field theories.

An $N = 1$ supersymmetric version of two dimensional dilaton gravity coupled to matter is considered. It is shown that the linear dilaton vacuum spontaneously breaks half the supersymmetries, leaving broken a linear combination of left and right supersymmetries which squares to time translations. Supersymmetry suggests a spinorial expression for the ADM energy $M$, as found by Witten in four-dimensional general relativity. Using this expression it is proven that ${M}$ is non-negative for smooth initial data asymptotic (in both directions) to the linear dilaton vacuum, provided that the (not necessarily supersymmetric) matter stress tensor obeys the dominant energy condition. A {\it quantum} positive energy theorem is also proven for the semiclassical large-$N$ equations, despite the indefiniteness of the quantum stress tensor. For black hole spacetimes, it is shown that $M$ is bounded from below by $e^{- 2 \phi_H}$, where $\phi_H$ is the value of the dilaton at the apparent horizon, provided only that the stress tensor is positive outside the apparent horizon. This is the two-dimensional analogue of an unproven conjecture due to Penrose. Finally, supersymmetry is used to prove positive energy theorems for a large class of generalizations of dilaton gravity which arise in consideration of the quantum theory.

We consider the analog in one spatial dimension of the Bose-Fermi transmutation for planar systems. A quantum mechanical system of a spin 1/2 particle coupled to an abelian gauge field, which is classically invariant under gauge transformations and charge conjugation is studied. It is found that unless the flux enclosed by the particle orbits is quantized, and the spin takes a value $n+ 1/2$, at least one of the two symmetries would be anomalous. Thus, charge conjugation invariance and the existence of abelian instantons simultaneously force the particles to be either bosons or fermions, but not anyons.

We construct a general form for an F-theory Weierstrass model over a general base giving a 6D or 4D supergravity theory with gauge group $(\operatorname{SU}(3) \times \operatorname{SU}(2) \times \operatorname{U}(1)) / \mathbb{Z}_6$ and generic associated matter, which includes the matter content of the standard model. The Weierstrass model is identified by unHiggsing a model with $\operatorname{U}(1)$ gauge symmetry and charges $q \le 4$ previously found by the first author. This model includes two distinct branches that were identified in earlier work, and includes as a special case the class of models recently studied by Cveti\v{c}, Halverson, Lin, Liu, and Tian, for which we demonstrate explicitly the possibility of unification through an $\operatorname{SU}(5)$ unHiggsing. We develop a systematic methodology for checking that a parameterized class of F-theory Weierstrass models with a given gauge group $G$ and fixed matter content is generic (contains all allowed moduli) and confirm that this holds for the models constructed here.

Starting with the well-defined product of quantum fields at two spacetime points, we explore an associated Poisson structure for classical field theories within the deformation quantization formalism. We realize that the induced star-product is naturally related to the standard Moyal product through an appropriate causal Green's functions connecting points in the space of classical solutions to the equations of motion. Our results resemble the Peierls-DeWitt bracket analyzed in the multisymplectic context. Once our star-product is defined we are able to apply the Wigner-Weyl map in order to introduce a generalized version of Wick's theorem. Finally, we include some examples to explicitly test our method: the real scalar field, the bosonic string and a physically motivated nonlinear particle model. For the field theoretic models we have encountered causal generalizations of the creation/annihilation relations, and also a causal generalization of the Virasoro algebra for the bosonic string. For the nonlinear particle case, we use the approximate solution in terms of the Green's function in order to construct a well-behaved causal bracket.

We generalize the half-BPS Janus configuration of four-dimensional N=4 super Yang-Mills theory to allow the theta-angle, as well as the gauge coupling, to vary with position. We show that the existence of this generalization is closely related to the existence of novel three-dimensional Chern-Simons theories with N=4 supersymmetry. Another closely related problem, which we also elucidate, is the D3-NS5 system in the presence of a four-dimensional theta-angle.

In Horava-Lifshitz gravity, regularity of a solution requires smoothness of not only the spacetime geometry but also the foliation. As a result, the regularity condition at the center of a star is more restrictive than in general relativity. Assuming that the energy density is a piecewise-continuous, non-negative function of the pressure and that the pressure at the center is positive, we prove that the momentum conservation law is incompatible with the regularity at the center for any spherically-symmetric, static configurations. The proof is totally insensitive to the structure of higher spatial curvature terms and, thus, holds for any values of the dynamical critical exponent $z$. Therefore, we conclude that a spherically-symmetric star should include a time-dependent region near the center. We also comment on the condition under which linear instability of the scalar graviton does not show up.

We continue our study of renormalization group (RG) flows on Wilson loop defects in ABJM theory, which we have initiated in arXiv:2211.16501. We generalize that analysis by including non-supersymmetric fixed points and RG trajectories. To this end, we first determine the ``ordinary", non-supersymmetric Wilson loops, which turn out to be two and to include an R-symmetry preserving coupling to the scalar fields of the theory, contrary to their four-dimensional counterpart defined solely in terms of the gauge field holonomy. We then deform these operators by turning on bosonic and/or fermionic couplings, which trigger an elaborate, multi-dimensional network of possible RG trajectories connecting a large spectrum of fixed points classified in terms of the amount (possibly zero) of supersymmetry and R-symmetry preserved. The $\beta$-functions are computed to leading order in the ABJM coupling but exactly in the deformation parameters, using an auxiliary one-dimensional theory on the defect and a dimensional regularization scheme. A striking result is the different behavior of the two ordinary Wilson loops, of which one turns out to be a UV unstable point while the other is IR stable. The same is true for the two 1/2 BPS Wilson loops. We interpret our results from a defect CFT (dCFT) point of view, computing the anomalous dimensions of the operators associated to the deformations and establishing appropriate g-theorems. In particular, the fermionic unstable fixed point is associated to a dCFT which is not reflection positive.

This paper, in addition to our recent works, intends to explore the behavior of the Wetterich flow equations in the portion of the theory space spanned by non-branching melons constrained with Ward-identities. We focus on a rank-5 just-renormalizable tensorial group field theory and consider a non-trivial extension of the local potential approximation namely effective vertex expansion for just-renormalizable quartic melonic interactions, disregarding effects coming from disconnected interactions. Investigating the dynamically constrained flow, we show explicitly that results weakly rely on the number of quartic interactions involved in the classical action. In particular, the predictions for the fully connected model are essentially the same as for the single colored model. Finally, closing the flow equations using Ward identities without additional assumptions to compute integrals involved in the effective vertex expansion, we do not find reliable fixed point in the unconstrained theory space connected with the Gaussian region.

We analyze the wave equation in families of pp-wave geometries developing strong localized scale-invariant singularities in certain limits. For both cases of well-localized pp-waves and the so-called null-cosmologies, we observe an intriguing discrete dependence of the existence of a singular limit on the normalization of the pp-wave profile. We also find restrictive matching conditions relating the geometries before and after the singularity (if a singular limit for the solutions of the wave equation with initial conditions specified away from the near-singular region is assumed to exist).

It was shown in arXiv:0912.1456 that the large-$N$ reduction holds on group manifolds in the sense that a large-$N$ gauge theory on a group manifold is realized by a matrix model which is obtained by dimensionally reducing the original theory to zero dimension. In this note, generalizing the above statement, we show that a large-$N$ gauge theory on a group manifold is equivalent to a theory which is obtained by reducing the original theory to its coset space. This is analogous to the statement of the large-$N$ reduction on flat spaces that large-$N$ gauge theories are independent of the volume.

We study two types of discrete operations on Coulomb branches of $3d$ $\mathcal{N}=4$ quiver gauge theories using both abelianisation and the monopole formula. We generalise previous work on discrete quotients of Coulomb branches and introduce novel wreathed quiver theories. We further study quiver folding which produces Coulomb branches of non-simply laced quivers.

The Ryu-Takayanagi formula directly connects quantum entanglement and geometry. Yet the assumption of static geometry lead to an exponentially small mutual information between far-separated disjoint regions, which does not hold in many systems such as free fermion conformal field theories. In this work, we proposed a microscopic model by superimposing entanglement features of an ensemble of random tensor networks of different bond dimensions, which can be mapped to a statistical gravity model consisting of a massive scalar field on a fluctuating background geometry. We propose a machine-learning algorithm that recovers the underlying geometry fluctuation from multi-region entanglement entropy data by modeling the bulk geometry distribution via a generative neural network. To demonstrate its effectiveness, we tested the model on a free fermion system and showed mutual information can be mediated effectively by geometric fluctuation. Remarkably, locality emerged from the learned distribution of bulk geometries, pointing to a local statistical gravity theory in the holographic bulk.

The other triplet in each cases has a more complicated action. The $q$-deformation of such representations present striking differences. In one case a {\bf non-minimal} deformation is found to be essential. This is explained and illustrated below. Broader interests of a parallel use of the two bases are pointed out.

We present a construction of fermionic operators in 3+1 dimensions in terms of bosonic fields in the framework of $QED_4$. The basic bosonic variables are the electric fields $E_i$ and their conjugate momenta $A_i$. Our construction generalizes the analogous constuction of fermionic operators in 2+1 dimensions. Loosely speaking, a fermionic operator is represented as a product of an operator that creates a pointlike charge and an operator that creates an infinitesimal t'Hooft loop of half integer strength. We also show how the axial $U(1)$ transformations are realized in this construction.

We show that a $3d$ sourced conformal Carrollian field theory has the right kinematic properties to holographically describe gravity in $4d$ asymptotically flat spacetime. The external sources encode the leaks of gravitational radiation at null infinity. The Ward identities of this theory are shown to reproduce those of the $2d$ celestial CFT after relating Carrollian to celestial operators. This suggests a new set of interplays between gravity in asymptotically flat spacetime, sourced conformal Carrollian field theory and celestial CFT.

In three dimensions, the pure Maxwell theory with compact U(1) gauge group is dual to a free compact scalar, and flows from the Maxwell theory with non-compact gauge group in the ultraviolet to a non-compact free massless scalar theory in the infrared. We compute the vacuum disk entanglement entropy all along this flow, and show that the renormalized entropy F(r) decreases monotonically with the radius r as predicted by the F-theorem, interpolating between a logarithmic growth for small r (matching the behavior of the S^3 free energy) and a constant at large r (equal to the free energy of the conformal scalar). The calculation is carried out by the replica trick, employing the scalar formulation of the theory. The Renyi entropies for n>1 are given by a sum over winding sectors, leading to a Riemann-Siegel theta function. The extrapolation to n=1, to obtain the von Neumann entropy, is done by analytic continuation in the large- and small-r limits and by a numerical extrapolation method at intermediate values. We also compute the leading contribution to the renormalized entanglement entropy of the compact free scalar in higher dimensions. Finally, we point out some interesting features of the reduced density matrix for the compact scalar, and its relation to that for the non-compact theory.

It has recently been suggested that a superpotential for the baryonic branch of the Klebanov-Strassler field theory (KS) should exist for a sector of the dual supergravity fields. In this note we would like to argue that if extended to cover the whole set of supergravity fields a would-be superpotential does not have a perturbative expansion around the known KS superpotential. Since the family of supergravity duals to the baryonic branch is an expansion around the warped deformed conifold, our argument most likely indicates that there is no such superpotential, and hints that some one-parameter supersymmetric solutions do not arise from BPS flow equations.

We study the interactions of the discrete states with nonzero ghost number in $c=1$ two-dimensional ($2D$) quantum gravity. By using the vertex operator representations, it is shown that their interactions are given by the structure constants of the group of the area preserving diffeomorphism similar to those of vanishing ghost number. The effective action for these states is also worked out. The result suggests the whole system has a BRST-like symmetry.

We describe how to recover the quantum numbers of extremal black holes from their near horizon geometries. This is achieved by constructing the gravitational Noether-Wald charges which can be used for non-extremal black holes as well. These charges are shown to be equivalent to the U(1) charges of appropriately dimensionally reduced solutions. Explicit derivations are provided for 10 dimensional type IIB supergravity and 5 dimensional minimal gauged supergravity, with illustrative examples for various black hole solutions. We also discuss how to derive the thermodynamic quantities and their relations explicitly in the extremal limit, from the point of view of the near-horizon geometry. We relate our results to the entropy function formalism.

The AdS/CFT correspondence is one of the most important discoveries in theoretical physics in recent years. It states that certain quantum mechanical theories can actually be described by classical gravity in one higher dimension, in a spacetime called anti-de Sitter (AdS) space. What makes this duality so useful is that it relates theories with weak coupling to theories with strong coupling and thus provides a new tool for tackling strongly coupled quantum field theories, which are notoriously difficult to handle using conventional methods. During the course of my PhD I have mostly studied time dependent processes, in particular thermalization processes, in quantum field theories using the AdS/CFT correspondence. On the gravity side, this is dual to dynamical formation of black holes from the collapse of matter fields. By studying the gravitational collapse process in detail, we can then draw conclusions about the dynamical formation of a thermal state in the dual quantum field theory. Using mostly numerical methods, I have studied how confinement affects thermalization in quantum field theories, where the system may never thermalize and field theory observables undergo interesting quasiperiodic behaviour. I have also studied formation of black holes in three dimensions which due to the simplified nature of three-dimensional gravity can be done using analytical methods. This has led to the discovery of new solutions of three-dimensional gravity corresponding to the formation of black holes without spherical symmetry, which can provide a deeper understanding of thermalization in two-dimensional quantum field theories. In a third line of research, I have studied higher spin gravity in three dimensions, an exotic extension of three-dimensional gravity which includes fields with spin higher than two, and we outline a new method to construct black hole solutions carrying higher spin charge.

On the gravity side, this is dual to dynamical formation of black holes from the collapse of matter fields. By studying the gravitational collapse process in detail, we can then draw conclusions about the dynamical formation of a thermal state in the dual quantum field theory. Using mostly numerical methods, I have studied how confinement affects thermalization in quantum field theories, where the system may never thermalize and field theory observables undergo interesting quasiperiodic behaviour. I have also studied formation of black holes in three dimensions which due to the simplified nature of three-dimensional gravity can be done using analytical methods. This has led to the discovery of new solutions of three-dimensional gravity corresponding to the formation of black holes without spherical symmetry, which can provide a deeper understanding of thermalization in two-dimensional quantum field theories. In a third line of research, I have studied higher spin gravity in three dimensions, an exotic extension of three-dimensional gravity which includes fields with spin higher than two, and we outline a new method to construct black hole solutions carrying higher spin charge.

It is by now well established that divergences of the on-shell action for asymptotically AdS solutions can be cancelled by adding covariant local boundary counterterms to the action. Here we show that although one can still renormalise the action for asymptotically $AdS_p \times S^q$ solutions using local boundary counterterms the counterterm action is not covariant since the conformal boundary is degenerate. Any given counterterm action is defined with respect to specific coordinate frame and gauge choices.

Models with gauge coupling constant unification at an intermediate scale between about $10^{10}$ and $10^{12}$GeV and consistency with the observed value of $\sin^2 \theta_W (M_Z)$ are obtained.

Constructing a consistent four-dimensional Lagrangian for charged massive higher-spin fields propagating in an electromagnetic background is an open problem. In 1989, Argyres and Nappi used bosonic open string field theory to construct a Lagrangian for charged massive spin-2 fields in a constant electromagnetic background. In this paper, we use the four-dimensional hybrid formalism for open superstring field theory to construct a supersymmetric Lagrangian for charged massive spin-2 and spin-3/2 fields in a constant electromagnetic background. The hybrid formalism has the advantage over the RNS formalism of manifest $\mathcal{N}=1$ d=4 spacetime supersymmetry so that the spin-2 and spin-3/2 fields are combined into a single superfield and there is no need for picture-changing or spin fields.

We continue to study the BPS gauge five-brane solutions of codimension two in ten-dimensional heterotic supergravity. The geometry including the dilaton and the NS-NS $B$-field are sourced from the monopole chain in $\mathbb{R}^2 \times S^1$. We find that the geometry is asymptotically Ricci flat and the dilaton is no longer imaginary valued. These properties are contrasted with the smeared counterpart discussed in our previous paper. We perform the T-duality transformations of the solution and find that it never results in a non-geometric object.

This article continues the study of the category of harmonious field models that was recently introduced as a kinetically non-linear generalisation of the well known harmonic category of multiscalar fields over a supporting brane wordsheet in a target space with a curved Riemannian metric. Like the perfectly harmonious case of which a familiar example is provided by ordinary barotropic perfect fluids, another important subcategory is the simply harmonious case, for which it is shown that as well as ``wiggle'' modes of the underlying brane world sheet, and sound type longitudinal modes, there will also be transverse shake modes that propagate at the speed of light. Models of this type are shown to arise from a non-Abelian generalisation of the Witten mechanism for conducting string formation by ordinary scalar fields with a suitable quartic self coupling term in the action.

A succinct summary is given of the problem of reconciling observation of black hole-like objects with quantum mechanics. If quantum black holes behave like subsystems, and also decay, their information must be transferred to their environments. Interactions that accomplish this with `minimal' departure from a standard description are parameterized. Possible sensitivity of gravitational wave or very long baseline interferometric observations to these interactions is briefly outlined.

The trace anomaly of the energy-momentum tensor is usually quoted in the form which is proportional to the beta function of the theory. However, there are in general many definitions of gauge couplings depending on renormalization schemes, and hence many beta functions. In particular, N=1 supersymmetric pure Yang-Mills has the holomorphic gauge coupling whose beta function is one-loop exact, and the canonical gauge coupling whose beta function is given by the Novikov-Shifman-Vainshtein-Zakharov beta function. In this paper, we study which beta function should appear in the trace anomaly in N=1 pure Yang-Mills. We calculate the trace anomaly by employing the N=4 regularization of N=1 pure Yang-Mills. It is shown that the trace anomaly is given by one-loop exact form if the composite operator appearing in the trace anomaly is renormalized in a preferred way. This result gives the simplest resolution to the anomaly puzzle in N=1 pure Yang-Mills. The most important point is to examine in which scheme the quantum action principle is valid, which is crucial in the derivation of the trace anomaly.

The Garfinkle-Vachaspati transform is a deformation of a metric in terms of a null, hypersurface orthogonal, Killing vector $k^\mu$. We explore a generalisation of this deformation in type IIB supergravity taking motivation from certain studies of the D1-D5 system. We consider solutions of minimal six-dimensional supergravity admitting null Killing vector $k^\mu$ trivially lifted to type IIB supergravity by the addition of four-torus directions. The torus directions provide covariantly constant spacelike vectors $l^\mu$. We show that the original solution can be deformed as $g_{\mu \nu} \to g_{\mu \nu} + 2 \Phi k_{(\mu}l_{\nu)}, C_{\mu \nu} \to C_{\mu \nu} - 2 \Phi k_{[\mu}l_{\nu]}$, provided the two-form supporting the original spacetime satisfies $i_k (dC) = - d k$, and where $\Phi$ satisfies the equation of a minimal massless scalar field on the original spacetime. We show that the condition $i_k (dC) = - d k$ is satisfied by all supersymmetric solutions admitting null Killing vector. Hence all supersymmetric solutions of minimal six-dimensional supergravity can be deformed via this method. As an example of our approach, we work out the deformation on a class of D1-D5-P geometries with orbifolds. We show that the deformed spacetimes are smooth and identify their CFT description. Using Bena-Warner formalism, we also express the deformed solutions in other duality frames.

The calculation of the full (renormalized) holographic action is undertaken in general Einstein-scalar theories. The appropriate formalism is developed and the renormalized effective action is calculated up to two derivatives in the metric and scalar operators. The holographic RG equations involve Ricci flow for the space-time metric as well as the standard $\beta$-function flow for scalar operators. Several examples are analyzed and the effective action is calculated. A set of conserved quantities of the holographic flow is found, whose interpretation is not yet understood.

We consider the simplest $SU_{q}(2)$ invariant fermionic hamiltonian and calculate the low and high temperature behavior for the two distinct cases $q>1$ and $q<1$. For low temperatures we find that entropy values for the Fermi case are an upper bound for those corresponding to $q\neq 1$. At high temperatures we find that the sign of the second virial coefficient depends on $q$, and vanishes at $q=1.96$. An important consequence of this fact is that the parameter $q$ connects the fermionic and bosonic regions, showing therefore that $SU_{q}(2)$ fermions exhibit fractional statistics in three spatial dimensions.

We study the realization of non-Abelian discrete gauge symmetries in 4d field theory and string theory compactifications. The underlying structure generalizes the Abelian case, and follows from the interplay between gaugings of non-Abelian isometries of the scalar manifold and field identifications making axion-like fields periodic. We present several classes of string constructions realizing non-Abelian discrete gauge symmetries. In particular, compactifications with torsion homology classes, where non-Abelianity arises microscopically from the Hanany-Witten effect, or compactifications with non-Abelian discrete isometry groups, like twisted tori. We finally focus on the more interesting case of magnetized branes in toroidal compactifications and quotients thereof (and their heterotic and intersecting duals), in which the non-Abelian discrete gauge symmetries imply powerful selection rules for Yukawa couplings of charged matter fields. In particular, in MSSM-like models they correspond to discrete flavour symmetries constraining the quark and lepton mass matrices, as we show in specific examples.

We present a model in which a 3-brane is embedded in a warped 5-dimensional background with a dilaton and a Kalb-Ramond 2-form. We show that it is possible to find static solutions of the form of charged dS/AdS-like black hole which could have a negative mass parameter. The motion of the 3-brane in this bulk generates an effective 4-dimensional bouncing cosmology induced by the negative dark radiation term. This model avoids the instabilities that arises for previous non-singular braneworld cosmologies in a Reissner-Nordstr{\o}m-AdS bulk.}

A new field theory formulation is presented for the analysis of the CMB power spectrum distribution in the cosmology. The background-field formalism is fully used. Stimulated by the recent idea of the {\it emergent} gravity, the gravitational (metric) field $g_\mn$ is not taken as the quantum-field, but as the background field. The statistical fluctuation effect of the metric field is taken into account by the path (hyper-surface)-integral over the space-time. Using a simple scalar model on the curved (dS$_4$) space-time, we explain the above things with the following additional points: 1) Clear separate treatment of the classical effect, the statistical effect and the quantum effect; 2) The cosmological fluctuation comes not from the 'quantum' gravity but from the unkown 'microscopic' movement; 3) IR parameter ($\ell$) is introduced for the time axis as the periodicity. Time reversal(Z$_2$)-symmetry is introduced in order to treat the problem separately with respect to the Z$_2$ parity. This procedure much helps both UV and IR regularization to work well.

We consider a spherical thick 3-brane immersed in a five-dimensional bulk spacetime. We demonstrate how the thick brane equation of motion expanded in powers of the thickness of the brane can be obtained from the expected junction conditions on the boundaries of thick brane with the two embedding spacetimes. It is shown that the finite thickness leads to a faster collapse of the spherical shell.

We analyze a recently proposed scheme to construct analytic lump solutions in open SFT. We argue that in order for the scheme to be operative and guarantee background independence it must be implemented in the same 2D conformal field theory in which SFT is formulated. We outline and discuss two different possible approaches. Next we reconsider an older proposal for analytic lump solutions and implement a few improvements. In the course of the analysis we formulate a distinction between regular and singular gauge transformations and advocate the necessity of defining a topology in the space of string fields.

The study of R\'enyi mutual information (RMI) sheds light on the AdS/CFT correspondence beyond classical order. In this article, we study the R\'enyi mutual information between two intervals at large distance in two-dimensional holographic warped conformal field theory, which is conjectured to be dual to the gravity on AdS3 or warped AdS3 spacetime under the Dirichlet-Newman boundary conditions. By using the operator product expansion of twist operators up to level 3, we read the leading oder and the next-toleading order RMI in the large central charge and small cross-ratio limits. The leading order result is furthermore confirmed using the conformal block expansion. Finally, we match the next-to-leading result by a 1-loop calculation in the bulk.

Due to its construction, the nonperturbative renormalization group (RG) evolution of the constant, field-independent term (which is constant with respect to field variations but depends on the RG scale $k$) requires special care within the Functional Renormalization Group (FRG) approach. In several instances, the constant term of the potential has no physical meaning. However, there are special cases where it receives important applications. In low dimensions ($d=1$), in a quantum mechanical model, this term is associated with the ground-state energy of the anharmonic oscillator. In higher dimensions ($d=4$), it is identical to the $\Lambda$ term of the Einstein equations and it plays a role in cosmic inflation. Thus, in statistical field theory, in flat space, the constant term could be associated with the free energy, while in curved space, it could be naturally associated with the cosmological constant. It is known that one has to use a subtraction method for the quantum anharmonic oscillator in $d=1$ to remove the $k^2$ term that appears in the RG flow in its high-energy (UV) limit in order to recover the correct results for the ground-state energy. The subtraction is needed because the Gaussian fixed point is missing in the RG flow once the constant term is included. However, if the Gaussian fixed point is there, no further subtraction is required. Here, we propose a subtraction method for $k^4$ and $k^2$ terms of the UV scaling of the RG equations for $d=4$ dimensions if the Gaussian fixed point is missing in the RG flow with the constant term. Finally, comments on the application of our results to cosmological models are provided.

This is a short review on strings in curved spacetimes. We start by recalling the classical and quantum string behaviour in singular plane waves backgrounds. We then report on the string behaviour in cosmological spacetimes (FRW, de Sitter, power inflation) which is by now largerly understood. Recent progress on self-consistent solutions to the Einstein equations for string dominated universes is reviewed. The energy-momentum tensor for a gas of strings is considered as source of the spacetime geometry. The string equation of state is determined from the behaviour of the explicit string solutions. This yields a self-consistent cosmological solution exhibiting realistic matter dominated behaviour $ R \sim (T)^{2/3}\; $ for large times and radiation dominated behaviour $ R \sim (T)^{1/2}\; $ for early times. Inflation in the string theory context is discussed.

We discuss how internal rotation with fixed angular frequency can affect the solitons in the baby Skyrme model in which the global O(3) symmetry is broken to the SO(2). Two particular choices of the potential term are considered, the "old" potential and the "new" double vacuum potential, We do not impose any assumptions about the symmetry on the fields. Our results confirm existence of two types of instabilities determined by the relation between the mass parameter of the potential and the angular frequency.

In this paper we generalize our investigation of the unitarity of non-compact WZNW models connected to Hermitian symmetric spaces to the N=1 world-sheet supersymmetric extension of these models. We will prove that these models have a unitary spectrum in a BRST approach for antidominant highest weight representations if the level and weights of the gauged subalgebra are integers. We will find new critical string theories in 7 and 9 space-time dimensions.

In this work we further extend the investigation of holographic gauge theories in external magnetic fields, continuing earlier work. We study the phenomenon of magnetic catalysis of mass generation in 1+3 and 1+2 dimensions, using D3/D7- and D3/D5-brane systems, respectively. We obtain the low energy effective actions of the corresponding pseudo Goldstone bosons and study their dispersion relations. The D3/D7 system exhibits the usual Gell-Mann--Oakes--Renner (GMOR) relation and a relativistic dispersion relation, while the D3/D5 system exhibits a quadratic non-relativistic dispersion relation and a modified linear GMOR relation. The low energy effective action of the D3/D5 system is related to that describing magnon excitations in a ferromagnet. We also study properties of general Dp/Dq systems in an external magnetic field and verify the universality of the magnetic catalysis of dynamical symmetry breaking.

In this work, we extend the construction of dual color decomposition in Yang-Mills theory to one-loop level, i.e., we show how to write one-loop integrands in Yang-Mills theory to the dual DDM-form and the dual trace-form. In dual forms, integrands are decomposed in terms of color-ordered one-loop integrands for color scalar theory with proper dual color coefficients.In dual DDM decomposition, The dual color coefficients can be obtained directly from BCJ-form by applying Jacobi-like identities for kinematic factors. In dual trace decomposition, the dual trace factors can be obtained by imposing one-loop KK relations, reflection relation and their relation with the kinematic factors in dual DDM-form.

We present a new picture of global symmetry breaking in quantum field theory and propose a novel realization of symmetry breaking phenomena in terms of the conserved charge associated with its symmetry. In particular, the fermion condensate of the vacuum state is examined when the spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking takes place. It is shown that the fermion condensate of the vacuum vanishes if the system is solved exactly, and therefore we cannot make use of the Goldstone theorem. As a perfect example, we present the Bethe ansatz vacuum of the Thirring model which shows the spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking with no fermion condensate.

We study a target space geometry of the form $AdS_3 \times {\bf R}$ for the $(2,1)$ heterotic string. This target space arises as the near horizon limit of a solitonic configuration in 2+2 dimensions. We investigate the null isometries of this space and discuss the reduction to 1+1 dimensions of the target space geometry arising from the consistent gauging of one of these isometries.

Relativistic hydrodynamics dual to Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity in asymptotic $\textrm{AdS}_5$ space is under study. To linear order in the amplitude of the fluid velocity and temperature, we derive the fluid's stress-energy tensor via an all-order resummation of the derivative terms. Each order is accompanied by new transport coefficients, which all together could be compactly absorbed into two functions of momenta, referred to as viscosity functions. Via inverse Fourier transform, these viscosities appear as memory functions in the constitutive relation between components of the stress-energy tensor.

The Chern-Simons level k of ABJM gauge theory captures the orbifolding in the dual geometry. This suggests that if we move the membranes away from the tip of the orbifold to a smooth point, it should trigger an RG flow that changes the level to k=1 in the IR. We construct an explicit supergravity solution that is dual to this shift from generic k to k=1. In the gauge theory side, we present arguments for why this shift is plausible at the end of the RG flow. We also consider a resolution of the orbifold for the case k=4 (where explicit metrics can be found), and construct the smooth supergravity solution that interpolates between AdS4 X S7/Z4 and AdS4 X S7, corresponding to localized branes on the blown up six cycle. In the gauge theory, we make some comments about the dimension four operator dual to the resolution as well as the associated RG flow.

We study the spacetime structures which are described by the IIB matrix model with orientifolding. Matrix orientifolding that preserves supersymmetries yields the mirror image point with respect to a four-dimensional plane for each spacetime point that corresponds to the eigenvalue of the bosonic matrix. In order to consider the upper bound on the distance between two eigenvalues in this model, we calculate the effective action for the eigenvalues up to two-loop. The eigenvalues distribute in a tubular region around the four-dimensional plane.

We analyze some exact chain-shaped black hole solutions in 5-dimensional spacetime. Unlike usual black string and black ring solutions, the topology of the horizons of the new solutions are neither $\mathbb{R}\times R^{2}$ nor $S^1\times S^2$ but rather like several topological spheres concatenating each other at single points. The shape of the horizon suggests the name \emph{black chain of pearls} on which each \emph{pearl} is a topological 3-sphere on the chain. In addition to the usual black hole hairs, the number of pearls can be viewed as a new hair of the black chain of pearls.

A representation for the fermionic determinant of the massive Schwinger model, or $QED_2$, is obtained that makes a clean separation between the Schwinger model and its massive counterpart. From this it is shown that the index theorem for $QED_2$ follows from gauge invariance, that the Schwinger model's contribution to the determinant is canceled in the weak field limit, and that the determinant vanishes when the field strength is sufficiently strong to form a zero-energy bound state.

A general class of gauges for open string field theory, for which the gauge fixing condition is given by linear equations with respect to string field, is investigated in detail. This class of gauges includes almost all known ones like Siegel gauge and its various extensions such as a-gauges proposed by the present authors as well as Schnabl gauge and linear b-gauges. A general form of propagators is determined and their common features are analyzed. A consistent procedure for calculating the amplitudes is given. Gauge independence of the on-shell physical amplitudes is explicitly shown.

We study the second quantization of field theory on the q-deformed fuzzy sphere for real q. This is performed using a path-integral over the modes, which generate a quasiassociative algebra. The resulting models have a manifest U_q(su(2)) symmetry with a smooth limit q -> 1, and satisfy positivity and twisted bosonic symmetry properties. A systematic way to calculate n-point correlators in perturbation theory is given. As examples, the 4-point correlator for a free scalar field theory and the planar contribution to the tadpole diagram in \phi^4 theory are computed. The case of gauge fields is also discussed, as well as an operator formulation of scalar field theory in 2_q + 1 dimensions. An alternative, essentially equivalent approach using associative techniques only is also presented. The proposed framework is not restricted to 2 dimensions.

We present a finite energy topological Z(2) vortex solution in a 2+1 dimensional SO(3) gauge field theory minimally coupled to a matrix valued Higgs field. The vortex carries a Z(2) magnetic charge and obeys a modulo two addition property. The core of this vortex has a structure similar to that of the Abrikosov vortex appearing in a type II superconductor. The implications of this solution for Wilson loops are quite interesting. In two Euclidean dimensions these vortices are instantons and a dilute gas of such vortices disorders Wilson loops producing an area law behaviour with an exponentially small string tension. In 2+1 dimensions the vortices are loops and they affect the same disordering in the phase having large loops.

Castellano, Ruiz, and Valenzuela recently observed a remarkable "pattern" in infinite-distance limits of moduli spaces in quantum gravity, which relates the field space variation of the mass of the lightest tower of particles to the field space variation of the species scale. In this work, we show how a version of this pattern can be proven to hold for BPS particles and strings throughout the vector multiplet moduli space of a 5d supergravity theory, even in regions where the particle masses and string tensions are substantially modified relative to their asymptotic behavior in the infinite-distance limits. This suggests that a suitably defined version of the pattern may hold not merely in the asymptotic limits of moduli space, but in the interior as well.

We show that tree level open two dimensional string theory is exactly solvable; the solution exhibits some unusual features, and is qualitatively different from the closed case. The open string ``tachyon'' S -- matrix describes free fermions, which can be interpreted as the quarks at the ends of the string. These ``quarks'' live naturally on a lattice in space-time. We also find an exact vacuum solution of the theory, corresponding to a charged black hole.

In this note we further investigate the procedure for computing tree-level amplitudes in Yang-Mills theory from connected instantons in the B-model on P^{3|4}, emphasizing that the problem of calculating Feynman diagrams is recast into the problem of finding solutions to a certain set of algebraic equations. We show that the B-model correctly reproduces all 6-particle amplitudes, including non-MHV amplitudes with three negative and three positive helicity gluons. As a further check, we also show that n-particle amplitudes obtained from the B-model obey a number of properties required of gauge theory, such as parity symmetry (which relates an integral over degree d curves to one over degree n-d-2 curves) and the soft and collinear gluon poles.

We find a new $\mathcal{N}=2$ $AdS_4$ solution in M-theory supported by purely magnetic flux via a sequence of abelian and non-abelian T-dualities. This provides the second known example in this class besides the uplift of the Pernici and Sezgin solution to 7d gauged supergravity constructed in the eighties. We compute the free energy of the solution, and show that it scales as $N^{3/2}$. It is intriguing that even though the natural holographic interpretation is in terms of M5-branes wrapped on a special Lagrangian 3-cycle, this solution does not exhibit the expected $N^3$ behavior.

Motivated by potential phenomenological applications, we develop the necessary tools for building GUT models in F-theory. This approach is quite flexible because the local geometrical properties of singularities in F-theory compactifications encode the physical content of the theory. In particular, we show how geometry determines the gauge group, matter content and Yukawa couplings of a given model. It turns out that these features are beautifully captured by a four-dimensional topologically twisted N=4 theory which has been coupled to a surface defect theory on which chiral matter can propagate. From the vantagepoint of the four-dimensional topological theory, these defects are surface operators. Specific intersection points of these defects lead to Yukawa couplings. We also find that the unfolding of the singularity in the F-theory geometry precisely matches to properties of the topological theory with a defect.

We discuss flux quantization and moduli stabilization in toroidal type IIB Z_N - or Z_N x Z_M -orientifolds, focusing mainly on their orbifold limits. After presenting a detailed discussion of their moduli spaces and effective actions, we study the supersymmetric vacuum structure of these models and derive criteria for the existence of stable minima. Furthermore, we briefly investigate the models away from their orbifold points and comment on the microscopic origin of their non-perturbative superpotentials.

We describe the dynamical evaporation of a black hole as the classical evolution in time of a black hole in an Anti-de Sitter braneworld. A bulk black hole whose horizon intersects the brane yields the classical bulk dual of a black hole coupled to quantum conformal fields. The evaporation of this black hole happens when the bulk horizon slides off the brane, making the horizon on the brane shrink. We use a large-D effective theory of the bulk Einstein equations to solve the time evolution of these systems. With this method, we study the dual evaporation of a variety of black holes interacting with colder radiation baths.

We describe the dynamical evaporation of a black hole as the classical evolution in time of a black hole in an Anti-de Sitter braneworld. A bulk black hole whose horizon intersects the brane yields the classical bulk dual of a black hole coupled to quantum conformal fields. The evaporation of this black hole happens when the bulk horizon slides off the brane, making the horizon on the brane shrink. We use a large-D effective theory of the bulk Einstein equations to solve the time evolution of these systems. With this method, we study the dual evaporation of a variety of black holes interacting with colder radiation baths. We also obtain the dual of the collapse of holographic radiation to form a black hole on the brane. Finally, we discuss the evolution of the Page curve of the radiation in our evaporation setups, with entanglement islands appearing and then shrinking during the decreasing part of the curve.

We investigate how loop-level propagators arise from tree level via a forward-limit procedure in two modern approaches to scattering amplitudes, namely the BCFW recursion relations and the scattering equations formalism. In the first part of the paper, we revisit the BCFW construction of one-loop integrands in momentum space, using a convenient parametrisation of the D-dimensional loop momentum. We work out explicit examples with and without supersymmetry, and discuss the non-planar case in both gauge theory and gravity. In the second part of the paper, we study an alternative approach to one-loop integrands, where these are written as worldsheet formulas based on new one-loop scattering equations. These equations, which are inspired by BCFW, lead to standard Feynman-type propagators, instead of the `linear'-type loop-level propagators that first arose from the formalism of ambitwistor strings. We exploit the analogies between the two approaches, and present a proof of an all-multiplicity worldsheet formula using the BCFW recursion.

The vacuum expectation value of the fermionic current is evaluated for a massive spinor field in spacetimes with an arbitrary number of toroidally compactified spatial dimensions in presence of a constant gauge field. By using the Abel-Plana type summation formula and the zeta function technique we present the fermionic current in two different forms. Non-trivial topology of the background spacetime leads to the Aharonov-Bohm effect on the fermionic current induced by the gauge field. The current is a periodic function of the magnetic flux with the period equal to the flux quantum. In the absence of the gauge field it vanishes for special cases of untwisted and twisted fields. Applications of the general formulae to Kaluz-Klein type models and to cylindrical and toroidal carbon nanotubes are given. In the absence of magnetic flux the total fermionic current in carbon nanotubes vanishes, due to the cancellation of contributions from two different sublattices of the graphene hexagonal lattice.

We study classical lattice simulations of theories of electrodynamics coupled to charged matter at finite temperature, interpreting them using the higher-form symmetry formulation of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). We compute transport coefficients using classical Kubo formulas on the lattice and show that the properties of the simulated plasma are in complete agreement with the predictions from effective field theories. In particular, the higher-form formulation allows us to understand from hydrodynamic considerations the relaxation rate of axial charge in the chiral plasma observed in previous simulations. A key point is that the resistivity of the plasma -- defined in terms of Kubo formulas for the electric field in the 1-form formulation of MHD -- remains a well-defined and predictive quantity at strong electromagnetic coupling. However, the Kubo formulas used to define the conventional conductivity vanish at low frequencies due to electrodynamic fluctuations, and thus the concept of the conductivity of a gauged electric current must be interpreted with care.

We investigate Wilsonian effective field theory as a model for the construction of the tachyon potential and nonperturbative vacua in closed string field theory. In a number of cases we are able to find the effective potential exactly, and observe what appear to be universal features. We find that the effective field theory contains the same nonperturbative vacuum structure as the bare Lagrangian, though this information is encoded less efficiently as the distance scale of the effective field theory is increased. The implication is that closed string field theory plausibly contains information about the nonperturbative vacuum structure of string theory, in spite of its similarities to effective field theory. We also truncate the effective potential at a fixed power of the field and investigate how the global structure of the effective potential may be approximated via Pad\'e resummation. Qualitative comparisons suggest that computation of the eighth to sixteenth order closed string vertex should be enough to obtain reliable results for the closed string field theory action evaluated on the tachyon field.

We study the one-loop effective action for $6D,$ ${\cal N}=(1,0)$ supersymmetric Yang--Mills (SYM) theory with hypermultiplets and $6D,$ ${\cal N}=(1,1)$ SYM theory as a subclass of the former, using the off-shell formulation of these theories in $6D,$ ${\cal N}=(1,0)$ harmonic superspace. We develop the corresponding supergraph technique and apply it to compute the one-loop divergences in the background field method ensuring the manifest gauge invariance. We calculate the two-point Green functions of the gauge superfield and the hypermultiplet, as well as the three-point gauge-hypermultipet Green function. Using these Green functions and exploiting gauge invariance of the theory, we find the full set of the off-shell one-loop divergent contributions, including the logarithmic and power ones. Our results precisely match with those obtained earlier in [1,2] within the proper time superfield method.

We consider Narain T-duality on a nontrivially fibered n-torus bundle in the presence of a topologically nontrivial NS H flux. The action of the duality group on the topology and H flux of the corresponding type II and heterotic string backgrounds is determined. The topology change is specialized to the case of supersymmetric T^2-fibered torsional string backgrounds with nontrivial H flux. We prove that it preserves the global tadpole condition in the total space as well as on the base of the torus fibration. We find that some of these T-dualities exchange half of the field strength of an unbroken U(1) gauge symmetry with the anti-selfdual part of the curvature of a physical circle fibration. We verify that such T-dualities indeed exchange the supersymmetry condition for the circle bundle with that of the gauge bundle.

Codimension two branes play an interesting role in attacking the cosmological constant problem. Recently, in order to handle some problems in codimension two branes in Einstein gravity, Bostock {\it et al.} have proposed using six-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet (EGB) gravity instead of six-dimensional Einstein gravity. In this paper, we present the solutions of codimension two branes in six-dimensional EGB gravity. We show that Einstein's equations take a "factorizable" form for a factorized metric tensor ansatz even in the presence of the higher-derivative Gauss-Bonnet term. Especially, a new feature of the solution is that the deficit angle depends on the brane geometry. We discuss the implication of the solution to the cosmological constant problem. We also comment on a possible problem of inflation model building on codimension two branes.

The Casimir energy for the transverse oscillations of a piecewise uniform closed string is calculated. The string consists of 2N pieces of equal length, of alternating type I and type II material, and is taken to be relativistic in the sense that the velocity of sound always equals the velocity of light. By means of a new recursion formula we manage to calculate the Casimir energy for arbitrary integers N. Agreement with results obtained in earlier works on the string is found in all special cases. As basic regularization method we use the contour integration method. As a check, agreement is found with results obtained from the \zeta function method (the Hurwitz function) in the case of low N (N = 1-4). The Casimir energy is generally negative, and the more so the larger is the value of N. We illustrate the results graphically in some cases. The generalization to finite temperature theory is also given.

As a check, agreement is found with results obtained from the \zeta function method (the Hurwitz function) in the case of low N (N = 1-4). The Casimir energy is generally negative, and the more so the larger is the value of N. We illustrate the results graphically in some cases. The generalization to finite temperature theory is also given.

We seek here to unify the second law of thermodynamics with the other laws, or at least to put up a law behind the second law of thermodynamics. Assuming no fine tuning, concretely by a random Hamiltonian, we argue just from equations of motion -- but {\em without} second law -- that entropy cannot go first up and then down again except with the rather strict restriction S_{large} \le S_{small 1} + S_{small 2}. Here S_{large} is the "large" entropy in the middle era while S_{small 1} and S_{small 2} are the entropies at certain times before and after the S_{large} - era respectively. From this theorem of "no strong maximum for the entropy" a cyclic time S^1 model world could have entropy at the most varying by a factor two and would not be phenomenologically realistic. With an open ended time axis (-\infty, \infty) ={\bf R} some law behind the second law of thermodynamics is needed if we do not obtain as the most likely happening that the entropy is maximal (i.e. the heat death having already occurred from the start). We express such a law behind the second law -- or unification of second law with the other ones -- by assigning a probability weight $P$ for finding the world/the system in various places in phase space. In such a model $P$ is almost unified with the rest as P = exp (-2 ~S_{Im}) with S_{Im} going in as the imaginary part of the action. We derive quite naturally the second law for practical purposes, a Big Bang with two sided time directions and a need for a bottom in the Hamiltonian density. Assuming the cosmological constant is a dynamical variable in the sense that it is counted as "initial condition" we even solve in our model the cosmological constant problem \underline{without} any allusion to anthropic principle.

We investigate further the properties of axially symmetrical monopole-antimonopole pair in the standard Weinberg-Salam theory. These numerical solutions behave quite differently from their counterparts in the SU(2) Yang-Mills-Higgs theory as the poles are now bounded by a flux string. Our results confirm that the energy of these solutions resides in a range of 13.17 - 21.02 TeV. In addition, we found strong evidence suggesting this configuration is time-dependent and discovered an energy oscillation phenomenon between the monopole and anti-monopole, which is associated with the symmetry of the solution. Finally, we calculate numerically the magnetic charge of the solution and confirm that its value is indeed $\frac{4\pi}{e}\sin^2\theta_{\scalebox{.5} {W}}$, as predicted by Y. Nambu in the 1970s. Counterintuitively, the magnetic charge is spread out and distributed along the string instead of concentrated near the poles.

We study boundary renormalization group flows of N=2 minimal models using Landau-Ginzburg description of B-type. A simple algebraic relation of matrices is relevant. We determine the pattern of the flows and identify the operators that generate them. As an application, we show that the charge lattice of B-branes in the level k minimal model is Z_{k+2}. We also reproduce the fact that the charge lattice for the A-branes is Z^{k+1}, applying the B-brane analysis on the mirror LG orbifold.

We advocate that a generalized Kronheimer construction of the K\"ahler quotient crepant resolution $\mathcal{M}_\zeta \longrightarrow \mathbb{C}^3/\Gamma$ of an orbifold singularity where $\Gamma\subset \mathrm{SU(3)}$ is a finite subgroup naturally defines the field content and interaction structure of a superconformal Chern-Simons Gauge Theory. This is supposedly the dual of an M2-brane solution of $D=11$ supergravity with $\mathbb{C}\times\mathcal{M}_\zeta$ as transverse space. We illustrate and discuss many aspects of this of constructions emphasizing that the equation $\pmb{p}\wedge\pmb{p}=0$ which provides the K\"ahler analogue of the holomorphic sector in the hyperK\"ahler moment map equations canonically defines the structure of a universal superpotential in the CS theory. The kernel of the above equation can be described as the orbit with respect to a quiver Lie group $\mathcal{G}_\Gamma$ of a locus $L_\Gamma \subset \mathrm{Hom}_\Gamma(\mathcal{Q}\otimes R,R)$ that has also a universal definition. We discuss the relation between the coset manifold $\mathcal{G}_\Gamma/\mathcal{F}_\Gamma$, the gauge group $\mathcal{F}_\Gamma$ being the maximal compact subgroup of the quiver group, the moment map equations and the first Chern classes of the tautological vector bundles that are in a one-to-one correspondence with the nontrivial irreps of $\Gamma$. These first Chern classes provide a basis for the cohomology group $H^2(\mathcal{M}_\zeta)$. We discuss the relation with conjugacy classes of $\Gamma$ and provide the explicit construction of several examples emphasizing the role of a generalized McKay correspondence. The case of the ALE manifold resolution of $\mathbb{C}^2/\Gamma$ singularities is utilized as a comparison term and new formulae related with the complex presentation of Gibbons-Hawking metrics are exhibited.

We construct non-supersymmetric $p$-brane solutions of type II supergravities in arbitrary dimensions ($d$) delocalized in one of the spatial transverse directions. By a Wick rotation we convert these solutions into Euclidean $p$-branes delocalized in the transverse time-like direction. The former solutions in $d=10$ nicely interpolate between the $(p+1)$-dimensional non-BPS D-branes and the $p$-dimensional BPS D-branes very similar to the picture of tachyon condensation for the tachyonic kink solution on the non-BPS D-branes. On the other hand the latter solutions interpolate between the $(p+1)$-dimensional non-BPS D-branes and the tachyon matter supergravity configuration very similar to the picture of rolling tachyon on the non-BPS D-branes.

We study a Lie algebra type $\kappa$-deformed space with undeformed rotation algebra and commutative vector-like Dirac derivatives in a covariant way. Space deformation depends on an arbitrary vector. Infinitely many covariant realizations in terms of commuting coordinates of undeformed space and their derivatives are constructed. The corresponding coproducts and star products are found and related in a new way. All covariant realizations are physically equivalent. Specially, a few simple realizations are found and discussed. The scalar fields, invariants and the notion of invariant integration is discussed in the natural realization.

We consider the fermionic (logarithmic) negativity between two fermionic modes in the Schwinger model. Recent results pointed out that fermionic systems can exhibit stronger entanglement than bosonic systems, exhibiting a negativity that decays only algebraically. The Schwinger model is described by fermionic excitations at short distances, while its asymptotic spectrum is the one of a bosonic theory. We show that the two-mode negativity detects this confining, fermion-to-boson transition, shifting from an algebraic decay to an exponential decay at distances of the order of the de Broglie wavelength of the first excited state. We derive analytical expressions in the massless Schwinger model and confront them with tensor network simulations. We also perform tensor network simulations in the massive model, which is not solvable analytically, and close to the Ising quantum critical point of the Schwinger model, where we show that the negativity behaves as its bosonic counterpart.

We give a brief overview of recent results obtained through the gauge/gravity correspondence, concerning the propagation of a heavy quark in strongly-coupled conformal field theories (such as N=4 super-Yang-Mills), both at zero and finite temperature. In the vacuum, we discuss energy loss, radiation damping, signal propagation and radiation-induced fluctuations. In the presence of a thermal plasma, our emphasis is on early-time energy loss, screening and quark-antiquark evolution after pair creation. Throughout, quark dynamics is seen to be efficiently encapsulated in the usual string worldsheet dynamics.

We define a noncommutative Lorentz symmetry for canonical noncommutative spaces. The noncommutative vector fields and the derivatives transform under a deformed Lorentz transformation. We show that the star product is invariant under noncommutative Lorentz transformations. We then apply our idea to the case of actions obtained by expanding the star product and the fields taken in the enveloping algebra via the Seiberg-Witten maps and verify that these actions are invariant under these new noncommutative Lorentz transformations. We finally consider general coordinate transformations and show that the metric is undeformed.

We consider a warped brane world scenario with two branes, Gauss-Bonnet gravity in the bulk, and brane localised curvature terms. When matter is present on both branes, we investigate the linear equations of motion and distinguish three regimes. At very high energy and for an observer on the positive tension brane, gravity is four dimensional and coupled to the brane bending mode in a Brans-Dicke fashion. The coupling to matter and brane bending on the negative tension brane is exponentially suppressed. In an intermediate regime, gravity appears to be five dimensional while the brane bending mode remains four dimensional. At low energy, matter on both branes couple to gravity for an observer on the positive tension brane, with a Brans-Dicke description similar to the 2--brane Randall-Sundrum setup. We also consider the zero mode truncation at low energy and show that the moduli approximation fails to reproduce the low energy action.

An exactly soluble non-perturbative model of the pure gauge QCD is derived as a weak coupling limit of the lattice theory in plaquette formulation. The model represents QCD as a theory of the weakly interacting field strength fluxes. The area law behavior of the Wilson loop average is a direct result of this representation: the total flux through macroscopic loop is the additive (due to the weakness of the interaction) function of the elementary fluxes. The compactness of the gauge group is shown to be the factor which prevents the elementary fluxes contributions from cancellation. There is no area law in the non-compact theory.

In a previous paper (hep-th/0306142) we have started to explore the holographic principle in the case of asymptotically flat space-times and analyzed in particular different aspects of the Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS) group, namely the asymptotic symmetry group of any asymptotically flat space-time. We continue this investigation in this paper. Having in mind a S-matrix approach with future and past null infinity playing the role of holographic screens on which the BMS group acts, we connect the IR sectors of the gravitational field with the representation theory of the BMS group. We analyze the (complicated) mapping between bulk and boundary symmetries pointing out differences with respect to the AdS/CFT set up. Finally we construct a BMS phase space and a free hamiltonian for fields transforming w.r.t BMS representations. The last step is supposed to be an explorative investigation of the boundary data living on the degenerate null manifold at infinity.

We investigate the superconformal transformation properties of the supercurrent as well as of the superconformal anomalies themselves in d=4, N=1 supersymmetric quantum field theory. Matter supercurrent and anomalies are coupled to a classical background of minimal supergravity fields. On flat superspace, there exist two different types of the superconformal Ward identity (called S and B) which correspond to the flat space limits of old resp. new minimal background supergravity fields. In the present publication we give particular importance to the new minimal case. A general formalism is set up which is then applied to the massless Wess-Zumino model.

Some magnetic phenomena in correlated electron systems were recently shown to be described in the continuum limit by a class of sigma models which present a U(1) Hopf fibration over CP(1). In this paper we study a generalization of such models with a target space given by a U(1) fibration over Grassmannian manifolds, of which CP($N-1$) is a special case. The metric of our target space is shown to be left-symmetric which implies that it is fully parametrized by two constants: the first one -- the conventional coupling constant -- is responsible for the overall scale while the second constant $\kappa$ parametrizes the strength of a deformation. In two dimensions these sigma models are perturbatively renormalizable. We calculate their $\beta$ functions to two loops and find the RG flow of the coupling constants. We calculate the two-point function in the UV limit, which has a power law dependence with an exponent dependent on the RG trajectory.

We express the entropy of a scalar field phi directly in terms of its spacetime correlation function W(x,y) = <phi(x) phi(y)>, assuming that the higher correlators are of "Gaussian" form. The resulting formula associates an entropy S(R) to any spacetime region R; and when R is globally hyperbolic with Cauchy surface Sigma, S(R) can be interpreted as the entropy of the reduced density-matrix belonging to Sigma. One acquires in particular a new expression for the entropy of entanglement across an event-horizon. Thanks to its spacetime character, this expression makes sense in a causal set as well as in a continuum spacetime.

The black hole information paradox apparently indicates the need for a fundamentally new ingredient in physics. The leading contender is nonlocality. Possible mechanisms for the nonlocality needed to restore unitarity to black hole evolution are investigated. Suggestions that such dynamics arises from ultra-planckian modes in Hawking's derivation are investigated and found not to be relevant, in a picture using smooth slices spanning the exterior and interior of the horizon. However, no simultaneous description of modes that have fallen into the black hole and outgoing Hawking modes can be given without appearance of a large kinematic invariant, or other dependence on ultra-planckian physics; a reliable argument for information loss thus has not been constructed. This suggests that strong gravitational dynamics is important. Such dynamics has been argued to be fundamentally nonlocal in extreme situations, such as those required to investigate the fate of information.

We evaluate at one loop the self-energies in generic D dimensions for the W,Z mesons in the Electroweak model where the gauge group is nonlinearly realized. In this model the Higgs boson parameters are absent, while a second mass parameter appears together with a scale for the radiative corrections. We estimate these parameters in a simplified fit on leptons and gauge bosons data. We check physical unitarity and the absence of infrared divergences. Landau gauge is used.
