We discuss a 1+2 dimensional model with unconventional supersymmetry at the boundary of an AdS${}_4$, \,$\mathcal{N}$-extended supergravity. The resulting features of the supersymmetric boundary open the possibility of describing the…
I will report on a top-down approach relating N=2, D=4 pure supergravity with non-trivial boundary behavior to a (2+1)-dimensional analog model which is able to describe the electronic properties of graphene-like materials. This is…
In this paper we perform, in the spirit of the holographic correspondence, a particular asymptotic limit of N=2, AdS_4 supergravity to N=2 supergravity on a locally AdS_3 boundary. Our boundary theory enjoys OSp(2|2) x SO(1,2) invariance…
It is known that the excitations in graphene-like materials in external electromagnetic field are described by solutions of massless two-dimensional Dirac equation which includes both Hermitian off-diagonal matrix and scalar potentials. Up…
We propose two different high-energy-theory correspondences with graphene (and related materials) scenarios, associated to grain boundaries, that are topological defects for which both Dirac points are necessary. The first correspondence…
We discuss a new realization of $\mathcal{N}$-extended quantum-mechanical supersymmetry (QM SUSY) with central charges hidden in the four-dimensional (4D) mass spectrum of higher dimensional Dirac action with curved extra dimensions. We…
We consider N=4 SU(2)xU(1) gauged supergravity on asymptotically-AdS_5 backgrounds. By a near-boundary analysis we determine the boundary-dominant components of the bulk fields from their partially gauge-fixed field equations. Subdominant…
The Dirac Hamiltonian formalism is applied to a system in $(2+1)$-dimensions consisting of a Dirac field $\psi$ minimally coupled to Chern-Simons $U(1)$ and $SO(2,1)$ connections, $A$ and $\omega$, respectively. This theory is connected to…
In view of the many quantum field theoretical descriptions of graphene in $2+1$ dimensions, we present another field theoretical feature of graphene, in the presence of defects. Particularly, we shall be interested in gapped graphene in the…
A modification of the harmonic superfield formalism in $D=4, N=2$ supergravity using a subsidiary condition of covariance under the background supersymmetry with a central charge ($B$-covariance) is considered. Conservation of analyticity…
We find and classify the ${\cal N}=1$ SUSY multiplets on AdS$_4$ which contain partially massless fields. We do this by studying the non-unitary representations of the $d=3$ superconformal algebra of the boundary. The simplest…
Graphene, Silicene, $\mathrm{MoS}_2$ and other similar two-dimensional structures have unusual electronic properties that lend themselves to exotic device applications. These properties emanate from the fact that the electrons are endowed…
In this work, we build the most general boundary conditions for $\mathcal N=\left(1,1\right)$ and $\mathcal N=\left(2,2\right)$ extended supergravity. We show that for the loosest set of boundary conditions, their asymptotic symmetry…
We examine the analogue gravity model within the context of f(R,T) gravity applied to graphene. The derivation of the Lagrangian density in two dimensions (2D) is undertaken, accounting for the altered gravitational effects as characterized…
A new realization of extended quantum-mechanical supersymmetry (QM SUSY) with central extension is investigated. We first show that two different sets of $d+2$ ($d+1$) supercharges for $d=$ even (odd), each of which satisfies an…
Semi-metals are characterized by nodal band structures that give rise to exotic electronic properties. The stability of Dirac semi-metals, such as graphene in two spatial dimensions (2D), requires the presence of lattice symmetries, while…
We describe new $N$-extended 2D supergravities on a $(p+1)$-dimensional (bosonic) space. The fundamental objects are moving frame densities that equip each $(p+1)$-dimensional point with a 2D ``tangent space''. The theory is presented in a…
We study a 5d gravity theory with a warped metric and show that two N = 2 supersymmetric quantum-mechanical systems are hidden in the 4d spectrum. The supersymmetry can be regarded as a remnant of higher-dimensional general coordinate…
In the present paper, a systematic approach is presented for solution of two-dimensional massless Dirac equation with external electrostatic potential applied. This approach is based on the new - asymmetric - form of SUSY-like intertwining…
A geometric formulation which describes extended supergravities in any dimension in presence of electric and magnetic sources is presented. In this framework the underlying duality symmetries of the theories are manifest. Particular…
