A singular configuration of an external static vector field in the form of a magnetic string polarizes the vacuum of a second-quantized theory on the plane orthogonal to the string axis. The most general boundary conditions at the punctured…
Recently, Sun [preprint, arXiv: 2210.07238v7] proposed two conjectural series for the mathematical constant $\zeta(4)$ and two conjectural series for the mathematical constant $\zeta(5)$. In terms of the operator method and two…
Let F be a p-adic field with p odd. Quadratic base change and theta-lifting are shown to be compatible for supercuspidal representations of SL(2,F). The argument involves the theory of types and the lattice model of the Weil representation.
The observation of a scalar resonance at the LHC, compatible with perturbative electroweak symmetry breaking, reinforces the Standard Model parameterisation of all subatomic data. The logarithmic evolution of the SM gauge and matter…
The four dimensional Abelian Higgs model with monopoles and $\Theta$-term is considered in the limit of the large mass of the higgs boson. We show that for $\Theta=2 \pi$ the theory is equivalent, at large distances, to summation over all…
Talk given at the 26th Workshop: ``From Superstrings to Supergravity" Erice - Sicily, 5-12 December 1992: In this talk we discuss string consistency requirements on four dimensional string models, namely the cancellation of target space…
We give an explicit construct of a harmonic weak Maass form $F_{\Theta}$ that is a "lift" of $\Theta^3$, where $\Theta$ is the classical Jacobi theta function. Just as the Fourier coefficients of $\Theta^3$ are related to class numbers of…
We propose correspondences between 4d quantum field theories with N=2,1,0 (super)conformal invariance and Type IIB string theory on various orbifolds. We argue using the spacetime string theory, and check using the beta functions (exactly…
The two-fold aim of the paper is to unify and generalize on the one hand the double integrals of Beukers for $\zeta(2)$ and $\zeta(3),$ and those of the second author for Euler's constant $\gamma$ and its alternating analog $\ln(4/\pi),$…
Formulas for the most general case of the zeta function associated to a quadratic+linear+constant form (in {\bf Z}) are given. As examples, the spectral zeta functions $\zeta_\alpha (s)$ corresponding to bosonic ($\alpha =2$) and to…
In this article the quantum fluctuation of a rigid and static string is reported to be identical to a free quantum particle. Solutions similar to this static string have already been found in the semi-classical quantizaton of pulsating…
We discuss some recent work in the field of classical solitonic solutions in string theory. In particular, we construct instanton and monopole solutions and discuss the dynamics of string-like solitons. Some of the motivation behind this…
It is known that average Siegel theta series lie in the space of Siegel Eisenstein series. Also, every lattice equipped with an even integral quadratic form lies in a maximal lattice. Here we consider average Siegel theta series of degree 2…
We provide two kinds of representations for the Taylor coefficients of the Weierstrass $\sigma$-function $\sigma(\cdot;\Gamma)$ associated to an arbitrary lattice $\Gamma$ in the complex plane $\mathbb{C}=\mathbb{R}^2$ - the first one in…
Some of the four-dimensional Superstring solutions provide a consistent framework for a Supersymmetric Unification of all interactions including gravity. A class of them extends successfully the validity of the standard model up to the…
It has long been known that in principle, the genus g vacuum amplitude for bosonic strings or superstrings in 26 or 10 dimensions can be entirely determined from conditions of holomorphy. Moreover, this has been done in practice for bosonic…
A value of the cosmological constant in a toy model of the five-dimensional universe is calculated in such a manner that it remains in agreement with both astronomical observations and the quantum field theory concerning the zero-point…
We study over rings of scalar valued Siegel modular forms. modules of vector valued modular forms of degree two. For the two simplest representations, standard and Sym^2, appears rather natural consider the cases of the group $\Gamma[4,8] $…
We study the distribution of graded degrees of freedom in classically stable oriented closed string vacua and use the Rankin-Selberg transform to link it to the finite one-loop vacuum energy. In particular, we find that the spectrum of…
We give a simple description of the classical moduli space of vacua for supersymmetric gauge theories with or without a superpotential. The key ingredient in our analysis is the observation that the lagrangian is invariant under the action…
