R-matrices are the solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. At the origin of the quantum group theory, they may be interpreted as intertwining operators. Recent advances have been made independently in different directions. Maulik-Okounkov…
In this paper we continue the study of $Q$-operators in the six-vertex model and its higher spin generalizations. In [1] we derived a new expression for the higher spin $R$-matrix associated with the affine quantum algebra…
We study intersecting noncommutative (NC) M5-branes from \kappa-invariance of an open supermembrane action with constant three-form fluxes. The $\kappa$-invariance gives rise to possible D-brane configurations for which projection operators…
The kappa symmetry of an open M2-brane ending on an M5-brane requires geometrical constraints on the embedding of the system in target superspace. These constraints lead to the M5-brane equations of motion, which we review both in…
We introduce a family of metric-deformed Heisenberg algebras $M_1$ and $M_2$, where the commutation relations are expressed directly in terms of the components of a diagonal Lorentzian metric. We show that these algebras unify several known…
We deform the Dorfman's and Sokolov's Hamiltonian operators by the quasi-Miura transformation coming from the topological field theory and investigate the deformed operators.
Novel 3+1 dimensional N=2 superconformal field theories (with tensionless BPS string solitons) are believed to arise when two sets of M5 branes intersect over a 3+1 dimensional hyperplane. We derive a DLCQ description of these theories as…
We study N=1 superconformal theories in four dimensions obtained wrapping M5 branes on a Riemann surface. We propose a method to determine from the spectral curve the scaling dimension of chiral operators in the SCFT. Whenever the…
We consider certain classes of operators in the exact conformal field theory SL(2,R) x SU(2) x U(1)^4 describing strings in an AdS(3) x S(3) x T4 geometry supported by Neveu--Schwarz 3-form fluxes. This background arises in the near-horizon…
We demonstrate that, in an appropriate limit, the off-shell M5-brane worldvolume action effectively captures the scalar potential of Seiberg-Witten theory perturbed by a small superpotential and, consequently, any nonsupersymmetric vacua…
We derive a quantum deformation of the $W_N$ algebra and its quantum Miura transformation, whose singular vectors realize the Macdonald polynomials.
The general structure of the matter Kahler metric in the $\kappa^{2/3}$ expansion of Horava-Witten M-theory with nonstandard embeddings is examined. It is shown that phenomenological models based on this structure can lead to Yukawa and…
We initiate a study of the holographic duals of a class of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories that are engineered by wrapping M5-branes on a sphere with an irregular puncture. These notably include the…
We explore the quantum algebraic formalism of the gauge origami system in $\mathbb{C}^{4}$, where D2/D4/D6/D8-branes are present. We demonstrate that the contour integral formulas have free field interpretations, leading to the operator…
Starting with any R-matrix with spectral parameter, obeying the Yang-Baxter equation and a unitarity condition, we construct the corresponding infinite dimensional quantum group U_{R} in term of a deformed oscillators algebra A_R. The…
We give a detailed derivation of a supersymmetric configuration of wrapped D5-branes on a two-cycle of a warped resolved conifold. Our analysis reveals that the resolved conifold should support a non-Kahler metric with an SU(3) structure.…
We construct a quadratic basis of generators of matrix-extended $\mathcal{W}_{1+\infty}$ using a generalization of the Miura transformation. This makes it possible to conjecture a closed-form formula for the operator product expansions…
The localized fermions on the intersection curve $\Sigma$ of D7-branes, are connected to a N=2 supersymmetric quantum mechanics algebra. Due to this algebra the fields obey a global U(1) symmetry. This symmetry restricts the proton decay…
As in two and four dimensions, supersymmetric conformal field theories in three dimensions can have exactly marginal operators. These are illustrated in a number of examples with N=4 and N=2 supersymmetry. The N=2 theory of three chiral…
We study the isomorphism problem for the multiplier algebras of irreducible complete Pick kernels. These are precisely the restrictions $\mathcal M_V$ of the multiplier algebra $\mathcal M$ of Drury-Arveson space to a holomorphic subvariety…
