In this note we show how the consistent truncations on half-supersymmetric branes of Leung and Stelle and Lin, Skrzypek and Stelle fit into the general exceptional generalised geometry analysis of Cassani \emph{et al.}. Each solution…
One of the most intriguing proposals for wavefunction collapse is the Diosi Penrose model, in which collapse is driven by stochastic fluctuations of the Newtonian potential. We argue that a closely related effective structure can emerge in…
This paper introduces soliton_solver, an open-source GPU-accelerated software package for the simulation and real-time visualization of topological solitons in two-dimensional non-linear field theories. The software is structured around a…
In this work, we continue the investigation of correlation numbers in $\mathcal{N}=1$ super Minimal Liouville Gravity (SMLG), with physical fields in the Ramond sector. Building upon our previous construction of physical operators and the…
In this paper we show how the Baxter Q-operator and the product formula for eigenfunctions of two-particle hyperbolic Ruijsenaars system can be derived from the genus one Moore-Seiberg duality identity in two-dimensional Liouville conformal…
In this paper we study the ultraviolet behavior of the invariant charge in QED. We show that for complex momenta the invariant charge does not have Landau pole singularity. We can define new invariant charge as real part of standard…
M-theory geometric engineering on manifolds of special holonomy yields a rich class of novel field theories. In this paper, we construct new 3d $\mathcal{N}=2^{\ast}$ and $\mathcal{N}=4^{\ast}$ gauge theories, realized as mass-deformations…
We study non-perturbative quantum gravitational corrections to the thermodynamics and quantum work distribution of the $n$-dimensional Schwarzschild--Tangherlini--Anti-de Sitter black hole. Starting from the corrected entropy $S = S_0 +…
I provide multiple examples of conformal field theories (CFTs) on the worldsheet that describe string propagation in target space wormholes connecting two disjoint asymptotic manifolds. The worldsheet approach goes beyond the framework of…
We study torus knot invariants in the lens space $S^{3}/\mathbb{Z}_{p}$ within Chern--Simons theory. Using the surgery and modular description of lens spaces, we derive a general expression for the invariant of an $(\alpha,\beta)$ torus…
We explore the sum over topologies in AdS$_3$ quantum gravity and its relationship with the statistical interpretation of the boundary theory. We formulate a statistical version of the conformal bootstrap that systematizes the universal…
We introduce two novel numerical approaches for computing Feynman integrals based on their complete monotonicity (CM) and Stieltjes properties. The first method uses that scalar Feynman integrals are CM, meaning that all their derivatives…
It is established that black holes have entropy and behave as thermodynamical systems. Associating entropy to gravitational fields has not remained limited to black holes, necessitating the notion of the second law of thermodynamics in…
We consider expansions for the kernels of operator functions of second-order minimal operators on a curved background. We show that the terms of these expansions originate in the ultraviolet or infrared regions. We propose a systematic…
In the practice of physics model building, the process of renormalization, resummation, and anomaly cancellation is to incrementally repair initially ill-defined Lagrangian quantum field theories. Impressive as this is, one would rather…
We propose a new supersymmetry index for the D1-D5 CFT for $T^4$, relevant to the AdS$_3$/CFT$_2$ correspondence. In a novel formulation of symmetric orbifold CFTs based on the Schur-Weyl duality, we show how this index can be naturally…
In previous work arXiv:2407.13556, we proposed an extended phase space structure at null infinity accommodating large gauge symmetries for sub$^n$-leading soft theorems in Yang-Mills, via dressing fields arising in the Stueckelberg…
We investigate crosscap states in two-dimensional rational conformal field theories (RCFTs), with an emphasis on the role of non-invertible symmetries. In particular, we argue for the existence of crosscap states labelled by each Verlinde…
We study the enveloping function of the fluctuation term in eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) statement for holographic conformal field theories. We use this function to identify and examine black hole microstates. We set down a…
We show that superrotations can be described using the geometric conformal completion method of Penrose. In particular, superrotation charges can be described and calculated using the linkage method of Geroch and Winicour. Whether…
