The effective action for the membrane dynamics on the background geometry of the $N$-sector DLCQ $M$ theory compactified on a two-torus is computed via supergravity. We compare it to the effective action obtained from the matrix theory,…
We are inspired by the facts that M-theory may reconcile the supersymmetric GUT scale with that of quantum gravity, and that it provides new avenues for low-energy supersymmetry breaking, to re-examine a flipped SU(5) model that has been…
We consider hidden symmetries arising from U-duality in the dimensional reduction of non-maximal higher-derivative supergravities to three dimensions. In particular, we consider the $G_{2(2)}$ symmetry of minimal five-dimensional…
We construct ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric low-energy effective action of $5D, {\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in $5D, {\cal N}=1$ harmonic superspace. It is obtained as a hypermultiplet completion of the leading $W \ln W$-term…
This paper explores the Riemannian geometry of the Wasserstein space of the circle, namely $P(S^{1})$, the set of probability measures on the unit circle endowed with the 2-Wasserstein metric. Building on the foundational work of Otto,…
Double field theory provides T-duality covariant generalized tensors that are natural extensions of the scalar and Ricci curvatures of Riemannian geometry. We search for a similar extension of the Riemann curvature tensor by developing a…
In this article we explore the duality between the low energy effective theory of five-dimensional N=1 SU(N)^{M-1} and SU(M)^{N-1} linear quiver gauge theories compactified on S^1. The theories we study are the five-dimensional uplifts of…
With a view towards future applications in nuclear physics, the fermion realization of the compact symplectic sp(4) algebra and its q-deformed versions are investigated. Three important reduction chains of the sp(4) algebra are explored in…
A classical aspect of Riemannian geometry is the study of estimates that hold uniformly over some class of metrics. The best known examples are eigenvalue bounds under curvature assumptions. In this paper, we study the family of all…
In physics, two systems that radically differ at short scales can exhibit strikingly similar macroscopic behaviour: they are part of the same long-distance universality class. Here we apply this viewpoint to geometry and initiate a program…
We propose a generalization of two classes of Lie-Hamilton systems on the Euclidean plane to two-dimensional curved spaces, leading to novel Lie-Hamilton systems on Riemannian spaces (flat $2$-torus, product of hyperbolic lines, sphere and…
We reconsider the relation of superconformal indices of superconformal field theories of class S with five-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory compactified on the product space of a round three-sphere and a Riemann surface. We…
We present a novel global E_7(7) symmetry in five-dimensional maximal supergravity as well as an E_8(8) symmetry in d=4. These symmetry groups which are known to be present after reduction to d=4 and d=3, respectively, appear as conformal…
We study some aspects of low-energy effective actions in 4-d superconformal gauge theories on the Coulomb branch. We describe superconformal invariants constructed in terms of N=2 abelian vector multiplet which play the role of building…
Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a type II$_1$ von Neumann factor and let $S(\mathcal{M})$ be the associated Murray-von Neumann algebra of all measurable operators affiliated to $\mathcal{M}.$ We extend a result of Kadison and Liu \cite{KL} by showing…
We present $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal $\mathsf{U}(1)$ duality-invariant models for an Abelian vector multiplet coupled to conformal supergravity. In a Minkowski background, such a nonlinear theory is expected to describe (the planar…
In this paper, we study the field transformation under U-duality in exceptional field theories. Take $SL(5)$ and $SO(5,5)$ exceptional field theories as examples, we explicitly show that the U-duality transformation is governed by the…
Let $M$ be a type I von Neumann algebra with the center $Z,$ and let $LS(M)$ be the algebra of all locally measurable operators affiliated with $M.$ We prove that every $Z$-linear derivation on $LS(M)$ is inner. In particular all $Z$-linear…
An SU(4) model of high-temperature superconductivity and antiferromagnetism has recently been proposed. The SO(5) group employed by Zhang is embedded in this SU(4) as a subgroup, suggesting a connection between our SU(4) model and the Zhang…
We study the compactification of M-theory on Calabi-Yau five-folds and the resulting N=2 super-mechanics theories. By explicit reduction from 11 dimensions, including both bosonic and fermionic terms, we calculate the one-dimensional…
