We study linear massive scalar charged perturbations of Topological Stars in the fuzzball and in the black hole (Black String) regimes. The objects that naturally couple to the electric 3-form field strength of these solutions are charged…

Compactification of heterotic string on a Calabi-Yau threefold can lead to a four-dimensional low-energy effective theory which contains a $U(1)$ gauge theory which is pseudo-anomalous, meaning that the fermion content is anomalous, but…

Stringy corrections in AdS/CFT generally fall into the category of either \alpha' effects or string loop effects, corresponding to 1/\lambda and 1/N corrections, respectively, in the dual field theory. While \alpha'^3R^4 corrections have…

We consider a string model at one-loop related to a $\sigma$-model whose antisymmetric tensor field is constructed as complex structure on the background manifold, specially on a manifold $R\times N$ where $N$ is a complex manifold. As an…

In the low-energy effective action of string theories, non-abelian gauge interactions and supergravity are augmented by infinite towers of higher-mass-dimension operators. We propose a new method to construct one-loop matrix elements with…

We consider a string wrapped many times around a compact circle in space, and let this string carry a right moving wave which imparts momentum and angular momentum to the string. The angular momentum causes the strands of the `multiwound'…

We study the spectrum of bosonic string theory on rotating BTZ black holes, using a SL(2,R) WZW model. Previously, Natsuume and Satoh have analyzed strings on BTZ black holes using orbifold techniques. We show how an appropriate spectral…

We derive a generalized equation for the evolution of tensor perturbations in a cosmological background, taking into account higher-curvature contributions and a tree-level coupling to the dilaton in the string frame. The equation is…

We discuss charged black-hole solutions to the equations of motion of the string-loop-corrected effective action. At the string-tree level, these solutions provide backgrounds for the "chiral null model". The effective action contains…

Aspects of superstring theory on black-strings backgrounds, corresponding to deformed BTZ black holes, formed near $k$ NS5 branes by $p$ fundamental strings, and single-trace $T\bar T+J\bar T+T\bar J$ holography, are presented. It is shown…

We solve the dilaton field equation in the background of a spherically symmetric black hole in bosonic or heterotic string theory with curvature-squared corrections in arbitrary d spacetime dimensions. We then apply this result to obtain a…

To compute the string one-loop correction to the Kahler potential of moduli fields of string compactifications in Einstein-frame, one must compute: the string one-loop correction to the Einstein-Hilbert action, the string one-loop…

We consider a $(2+1)$-dimensional spacetime whose two-dimensional space part is Weyl-related to a surface of arbitrary negative constant Gaussian curvature with symmetries of two-dimensional Lie algebra. It is shown that the geometry is a…

We use the generalized zeta function regularization method to compute the one-loop quantum correction to the masses of the TK1 and TK2 kinks in a deformation of the O(N) linear sigma model on the real line.

We construct an exact CFT as an SL(2,R)xSU(2)/U(1)^2 gauged WZW model, which describes a black hole in 4 dimensions. Another exact solution, describing a black membrane in 4D (in the sense that the event horizon is an infinite plane) is…

String backgrounds associated with gauged $G/H$ WZNW models in general depend non-trivially on $\alpha'$. We note, however, that there exists a local covariant $\a'$-dependent field redefinition that relates the exact metric-dilaton…
