We describe a scheme for constructing the holographic dual of the full D3-brane geometry with charge $K$ by embedding it into a large anti-de Sitter space of size $N$. Such a geometry is realized in a multi-center anti-de Sitter geometry…
A single M5-brane probing G, an ADE-type singularity, leads to a system which has G x G global symmetry and can be viewed as "bifundamental" (G,G) matter. For the A_N series, this leads to the usual notion of bifundamental matter. For the…
Singular limits of 6D F-theory compactifications are often captured by T-branes, namely a non-abelian configuration of intersecting 7-branes with a nilpotent matrix of normal deformations. The long distance approximation of such 7-branes is…
This thesis studies meta- and exactly stable supersymmetry breaking mechanisms in heterotic and type IIB string theories and constructs an F-theory Grand Unified Theory model for neutrino physics in which neutrino mass is determined by the…
In this article we continue our study of chiral fermions on a quantum curve. This system is embedded in string theory as an I-brane configuration, which consists of D4 and D6-branes intersecting along a holomorphic curve in a complex…
Huang's Lemma is an important tool in CR geometry to study rigidity problems. This paper introduces a generalization of Huang's Lemma based on the rigidity properties of holomorphic mappings preserving certain orthogonality on projective…
In this paper, using Donaldson's heat flow, we show that the semi-stability of a Higgs bundle over a compact K\"ahler manifold implies the existence of approximate Hermitian-Einstein structure on the Higgs bundle.
We describe how to glue prime-to-$p$ torsion sheaves along Harder-Narasimhan strata of Fargues-Scholze's $\mathrm{Bun}_G$ in terms of the cohomology of locally closed strata inside the smooth charts $\mathcal{M}_b \to \mathrm{Bun}_G$…
The Higgs sector of the low-energy physics of n of coincident D-branes contains the necessary elements for constructing noncommutative manifolds. The coordinates orthogonal to the coincident branes, as well as their conjugate momenta, take…
From descent theory to higher geometry, the idea of gluing has been embedded in many elegant and powerful techniques, proving instrumental for the solution of many problems. In this paper, we introduce a framework that allows to link…
We determine the stability, the geometry, the electronic and magnetic structure of hydrogen-terminated graphene-nanoribbons edges as a function of the hydrogen content of the environment by means of density functional theory.…
This paper aims to describe the behavior of diffeological differential forms under the operation of gluing of diffeological spaces along a smooth map. In the diffeological context, two ways of looking at diffeological forms are available,…
We give an explicit description of factorization algebras over the affine line, constructing them from the gluing data determined by its corresponding OPE algebra. We then generalize this construction to factorization monoids, obtaining a…
We develop a new geometric method of understanding principal G-Higgs bundles through their spectral data, for G a real form of a complex Lie group. In particular, we consider the case of G a split real form, as well as G = SL(2,R), U(p,p),…
Let $M$ be a hyperkaehler manifold, and $F$ a torsion-free and reflexive coherent sheaf on $M$. Assume that $F$ (outside of its singularities) admits a connection with a curvature which is invariant under the standard SU(2)-action on…
We study horizontal deformations of a Higgs bundle whose spectral curve is smooth. It allows us to define a natural integrable connection of the Hitchin fibration on the locus where the spectral curves are smooth. Then, in the non-zero…
We study the dynamics of an open membrane with a cylindrical topology, in the background of a constant three form, whose boundary is attached to p-branes. The boundary closed string is coupled to a two form potential to ensure gauge…
