Neumann boundary condition plays an important role in the initial proposal of holographic dual of boundary conformal field theory, which has yield many interesting results and passed several non-trivial tests. In this paper, we show that…
We derive the mass shell condition for N coincident D0 branes in codimension two i.e. in space-time dimension three. Using this we present the action for this system in first order formalism. Our analysis is restricted to flat space-time.
We present a notion of $\Delta$-stability and stability filtration in arbitrary categories which is equivalent to the existence of Harder-Narasimhan (HN) sequences on objects. Indeed it is equivalent to the existence of a zero morphism, a…
We focus on the continuous symmetry transformations for the three ($2 + 1$)-dimensional (3D) system of a combination of the free Abelian 1-form and 2-form gauge theories within the framework of Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) formalism. We…
We look at general braneworlds in six-dimensional Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. We find the general matching conditions for the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet braneworld, which remarkably turn out to give precisely the four-dimensional Einstein…
Gravity may be "locally localized" over a wide range of length scales on a d-dimensional anti-de Sitter (AdS) brane living inside AdS_{d+1}. In this paper we examine this phenomenon from the point of view of the holographic dual "defect…
We give a microscopic explanation for the recently observed equivalence among thermodynamics of supergravity solutions for Dp-branes with or without NS B-field and for D(p-2)-branes with vanishing B-field and two delocalized transverse…
We investigate the localization of modes on the worldvolume of a p-brane embedded in p+d+1-dimensional spacetime. The p-brane here is such that its profile is regarded as a scalar global defect and the localized modes are scalar modes that…
By using the local dimension-free Harnack inequality established on incomplete Riemannian manifolds, integrability conditions on the coefficients are presented for SDEs to imply the non-explosion of solutions as well as the existence,…
We show that the structure of the Lorentz group in four dimensions is such that unimodular (trace-free) gravity can be consistently represented as an algebraic condition on the symmetric product space of 2-forms. This condition states that…
In this work, we address the localization problem of vector field in the chameleon braneworld and investigate the localization of various matter fields. The conditions for localizing the matter fields are determined. It is found that the…
We consider Hamilton-Jacobi equations in one space dimension with Hamiltonians of the form $H(p,x,\omega) = G(p) + \beta V(x,\omega)$, where $V(\cdot,\omega)$ is a stationary and ergodic potential of unit amplitude. The homogenization of…
The localization of gravity for (5 + 1)-dimensional intersecting thick braneworld models is thoroughly investigated. Departing from preliminary results for five independent proposals, from I to V, gravity is shown to be localized in the…
Imprints of spinor-vector dualities have been uncovered in various string constructions. They are typically induced by changing certain free general GSO phases in the underlying string partition functions. This paper shows that…
Unlike the duality in four-dimensional spacetime, where the $q-$form fields corresponds to the scalar fields or the vector fields, in higher dimensional spacetime, they denote new types of particles. In this paper, we investigate the…
Recent cold atom experiments have realized one-dimensional anyons and enabled the tuning of 1D~statistics between bosons and fermions. Here, we analyze the symmetries, integrability, and resulting degeneracies of the underlying…

We provide complete and self-contained formulas about localization of massless/massive Abelian gauge fields on topological solitons in generic $D$ dimensions via a field dependent gauge kinetic term. The localization takes place when a…
We examine some of the implications of the field-theoretical mechanism for the localization of gauge fields on hypersurfaces in higher-dimensional bulk space-time. This mechanism exploits the analogy between confinement and dual…
