We construct several new families of vacuum solutions that describe black holes in uniformly accelerated motion. They generalize the C-metric to the case where the energy density and tension of the strings that pull (or push) on the black…
We consider F-strings with arbitrary configurations in the Minkowski directions of a higher-dimensional spacetime, which also wrap and spin around $S^1$ subcycles of constant radius in an arbitrary internal manifold, and determine the…
We study the cubic-quintic NLS in three space dimensions. It is known that scattering holds for solutions with mass-energy in a region corresponding to positive virial, the boundary of which is delineated both by ground state solitons and…
We extend the skein lasagna theory of Morrison-Walker-Wedrich to 4-manifolds with corners and formulate gluing formulas for 4-manifolds with boundary and, more generally, with corners. As an application, we develop a categorical framework…
We obtain the giant magnon of Hofman-Maldacena and its dyonic generalisation on R x S^3 < AdS_5 x S^5 from the general elliptic finite-gap solution by degenerating its elliptic spectral curve into a singular curve. This alternate…
Motivated by a problem posed by David A. Singer in 1999 and by the elastic spherical curves, we study the spherical curves whose curvature is expressed in terms of the distance to a great circle (or from a point). By introducing the notion…
We study the giant magnon solutions in the near horizon geometry of the Neveu-Schwarz (NS) 5-brane background. In conformal gauge, we find magnon dispersion relation in the large angular momentum (J) limit. We further show that the giant…
We study spin chains for superconformal quiver gauge theories in the moduli space of N=2 orbifolds. Independent of integrability, which is generally broken, we use the centrally extended SU(2|2) symmetry of the magnons to fix their…
We construct the effective field theory for a single massive higher-spin particle in flat spacetime. Positivity bounds of the S-matrix force the cutoff of the theory to be well below the naive strong-coupling scale, forbid any potential and…
We investigate the solutions of Einstein equations such that a hedgehog solution is matched to different exterior or interior solutions via a spherical shell. In the case where both the exterior and the interior regions are hedgehog…
We show that there exist hyperbolic knots in the 3-sphere such that the set of points of large injectivity radius in the complement take up the bulk of the volume. More precisely, given a finite volume hyperbolic manifold, for any bound R>0…
We have numerically calculated topological andnon-topological solitons in two spatial dimensions with Chern-Simons term. Their quantum stability, as well as that of the Maxwell vortex, is analyzed by means of bounce instantons which involve…
The bosonic content of string theory in curved background of multidimensional structure with p-branes has a systematic geometrical description as an effective sigma-model of gravity in lower dimension (say 3+1) with additional interacting…
We consider the propagation of perturbations along an infinitely long stationary open string in the background of a Schwarzschild black hole. The equations of motion for the perturbations in the 2 transverse physical directions are solved…
We study the dynamics of a spherically symmetric thin shell of perfect fluid embedded in d-dimensional Anti-de Sitter space-time. In global coordinates, besides collapsing solutions, oscillating solutions are found where the shell bounces…
We transform superstring scattering amplitudes into the correlation functions of primary conformal fields on two-dimensional celestial sphere. The points on celestial sphere are associated to the asymptotic directions of (light-like)…
We identify the result of the continuous wavelet transform with the difference of solutions of two hyperbolic partial differential equations, for which wavelet's shift and scale are considered as independent variables on 2D plane. The…
We study rigidly rotating strings in $\beta$-deformed $AdS_5\times S^5$ background with one spin along AdS$_5$ and two angular momenta along $S^5$. We find the spiky string solutions and present the dispersion relation among various charges…
We show nonrelativistic (NR) giant magnon dispersion relations by probing the torsional Newton Cartan (TNC) geometry with (semi)classical nonrelativistic rigidly rotating strings. We construct NR sigma models over $ R \times S^2 $ and…
We consider a modified Brans-Dicke theory in which except the usual Brans-Dicke parameter a new dimensionful parameter appears which modifies the kinetic term of the scalar field coupled to gravity. Solving the coupled Einstein-Klein-Gordon…
