We review and study the duality between string theory formulated on a curved exact background (the two dimensional black hole) and string theory in flat space with a tachyon-like potential. We generalize previous results in this subject by…

In this thesis, two aspects of string theory are discussed, tensionless strings and supersymmetric sigma models. The equivalent to a massless particle in string theory is a tensionless string. Even almost 30 years after it was first…

The spherically symmetric reduction of higher dimensional Einstein-scalar theory leads to lower dimensional dilatonic gravity with dilaton coupled scalar (for example, from 4D to 2D system). We calculate trace anomaly and anomaly induced…

Notation for spin coefficients for metrics of neutral signature in four dimensions is introduced. The utility and interpretation of spin coefficients is explored through themes in null geometry familiar from (complex) general relativity.…

Spectral flow in two-dimensional field theories is known to correspond to geometrical twisting between two circles in the gravity dual. We generalize this operation to the geometries which have SO(k+1) x SO(k+1) isometries with k>1 and…

2-point topological charge correlation functions of several types of geometric singularity in gaussian random fields are calculated explicitly, using a general scheme: zeros of $n$-dimensional random vectors, signed by the sign of their…

We investigate some aspects of the relationship between matrix string theory and light-cone string field theory by analysing the correspondence between the two-loop thermal partition function of DLCQ strings in flat space and the integrated…

The paper examines correspondence among correlation functions of symmetric orbifold and string theory on AdS3 described by sl(2) Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten (WZNW) model. We start by writing down n-point function of twist operators in the…

We consider $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal quiver gauge theories in four dimensions and evaluate the chiral/anti-chiral correlators of single-trace operators. We show that it is convenient to form particular twisted and untwisted…

We compute three- and four-point correlation functions containing excited bosonic twist fields. Our results can be used to determine properties, such as lifetimes and production rates, of massive string excitations localised at D-brane…

We develop a unified method to study spectral determinants for several different manifolds, including spheres and hemispheres, and projective spaces. This is a direct consequence of an approach based on deriving recursion relations for the…

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…

There is an increasing theoretical and observational evidence that the external magnetic field of magnetars may contain a toroidal component, likely of the same order of the poloidal one. Such "twisted magnetospheres" are threaded by…

Predictions of Akkermans et al. are essentially changed when the Krein spectral displacement operator is regularized by means of zeta function. Instead of piecewise constant persistent current of free electrons on the plane one has a…
