We consider the holographic duality between type-A higher-spin gravity in AdS_4 and the free U(N) vector model. In the bulk, linearized solutions can be translated into twistor functions via the Penrose transform. We propose a holographic…
We present a twistor description for null two-surfaces (null strings) in 4D Minkowski space-time. The Lagrangian density for a variational principle is taken as a surface-forming null bivector. The proposed formulation is reparametrization…
We show that, when compactified on a circle, N=(2,0),d=6 supergravity coupled to 1 tensor multiplet and nV vector multiplets is dual to N=(2,0),d=6 supergravity coupled to just nT=nV+1 tensor multiplets and no vector multiplets. Both…
For nonlinear models of an Abelian vector supermultiplet coupled to N = 2 supergravity in four dimensions, we formulate the self-duality equation which expresses invariance under U(1) duality rotations. In the flat space limit, this…
We present a twistor space that describes super null-lines on six-dimensional N=(1,1) superspace. We then show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between holomorphic vector bundles over this twistor space and solutions to the field…
We construct the duality-symmetric actions for a large class of six-dimensional models describing hierarchies of non-Abelian scalar, vector and tensor fields related to each other by first-order (self-)duality equations that follow from…
We present a version of relative locality based on the geometry of twistor space. This can also be thought of as a new kind of deformation of twistor theory based on the construction of a bundle of twistor spaces over momentum space.…
In this work we obtain the non-abelian T-dual geometry of the well-known Pilch-Warner supergravity solution in its infrared point. We derive the dual metric and the NS two-form by gauging the isometry group of the initial theory and…
The superspace formulation of the worldvolume action of twistor string models is considered. It is shown that for the Berkovits-Siegel closed twistor string such a formulation is provided by a N=4 twistor-like action of the tensionless…
We present an action for a six-dimensional superconformal field theory containing a non-abelian tensor multiplet. All of the ingredients of this action have been available in the literature. We bring these pieces together by choosing the…
The inclusion of non-Abelian U(N) internal charges (other than the electric charge) into Twistor Theory is accomplished through the concept of "colored twistors" (ctwistors for short) transforming under the colored conformal symmetry…
If one compactifies the Abelian $(1,0)$ tensor multiplet on a circle, one finds 5d SYM for the zero modes. For the Kaluza-Klein modes one can likewise find a Lagrangian description in 5d \cite{Bonetti:2012st}. Since in 5d we have an…
We review aspects of twistor theory, its aims and achievements spanning thelast five decades. In the twistor approach, space--time is secondary with events being derived objects that correspond to compact holomorphic curves in a complex…
We find a regular analytic 1st order deformation of the Klebanov-Strassler background. From the dual gauge theory point of view the deformation describes supersymmetry soft breaking gaugino mass terms. We calculate the difference in vacuum…
We give a brief overview of a non-Lagrangian approach to field theory based on a generalization of the Kerr-Penrose theorem and algebraic twistor equations. Explicit algorithms for obtaining the set of fundamental (Maxwell, SL(2,…
We go on with the definition of the theory of the non--Abelian two--tensor fields and find the gauge transformation rules and curvature tensor for them. To define the theory we use the surface {\it exponent} proposed in hep--th/0503234. We…
We present an N=1 supersymmetric non-Abelian compensator formulation for a vector multiplet in three-dimensions. Our total field content is the off-shell vector multiplet (A_\mu{}^I, \lambda^I) with the off-shell scalar multiplet (\phi^I,…
We propose a harmonic superspace description of the non-linear vector-tensor N=2 multiplet. We show that there exist two inequivalent version: the old one in which one of the vectors is the field-strength of a gauge two-form, and a new one…
We present a six-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(1,0)$ supersymmetric higher gauge theory in which self-duality is consistently implemented by physically trivial additional fields. The action contains both $\mathcal{N}=(1,0)$ tensor and vector…
We define the notion of adjustment for strict Lie 2-groups and provide the complete cocycle description for non-Abelian gerbes with connections whose structure 2-group is an adjusted 2-group. Most importantly, we depart from the common…
