We propose a new action for entanglement entropy in the framework of the AdS$_{3}$/CFT$_{2}$ correspondence. This action is constructed directly from the entanglement entropy of the CFT$_{2}$, and we show that the Einstein equations of…
A new family of $D=4$ $\mathcal{N}=8$ gauged supergravities is introduced, consisting in a mixture of Scherk-Schwarz and dyonic CSO gaugings that involves the trombone scaling symmetry. A specific theory in this class is shown to admit…
Motivated by cosmological observations, we push the cosmological bootstrap program beyond the de Sitter invariance lamppost by considering correlators that explicitly break scale invariance, thereby exhibiting primordial features. For…
In this paper we analyze a generalized "single-trace $T\bar T$" deformation, defined by a TsT transformation, of the fibered $I$-brane solution from \cite{Nunez2023}. We use the Penrose limit to understand it, and we consider both the TsT…
We derive several new quantum bit thread prescriptions for holographic entanglement entropy, equivalent for static states to the quantum extremal surface formula. Our new prescriptions come in many varieties: vector field-based or based on…
Heavy particle effective theory applied to spinning black holes provides a natural framework in which propagators linearize and numerators exponentiate. In this work, we exploit these two features to introduce Kerr generating functions,…
We investigate minimal two-body Hamiltonians with random interactions that generate spectra resembling those of Gaussian random matrices, a phenomenon we term quadratic quantum chaos. Unlike integrable two-body fermionic systems, the…
Loop contributions to cosmological correlators and to the associated wavefunction are of key theoretical and phenomenological interest. Here, we investigate and compare different renormalisation schemes proposed in the literature to handle…
We propose and study a family of complex matrix models computing the protected two- and three-point correlation functions in $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM. Our description allows us to directly relate the eigenvalue density of the matrix model for…
Parametric scale separation is notoriously difficult to achieve in flux compactifications of gravitational effective theories. An appealing alternative to conventional Freund-Rubin vacua involves Ricci-flat internal manifolds, where the…
We present a concrete string-theoretic mechanism that generates four-dimensional de Sitter vacua from non-geometric R-flux compactifications of heterotic string theory. The construction rests on three pillars: the Malcev algebra generated…
By formulating the renormalization group as a quantum channel acting on density matrices in Quantum Field Theories (QFTs), we show that ground-state expectation values of observables supported on slow momentum modes can be approximated by…
This paper presents a new four-dimensional axionically charged rotating black hole with a scalar field, which is defined by a structural function coupling the axionic field and a scalar potential. This configuration is characterized by an…
We identify cluster algebras for planar kinematics of conformal Feynman integrals in four dimensions, as sub-algebras of that for top-dimensional $G(4,n)$ corresponding to $n$-point massless kinematics. We provide evidence that they encode…
It is known that the semiclassical approximation to the gravity path integral can be leveraged to explain certain inherently quantum aspects of gravity. One such aspect is the state-counting interpretation of the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy…
We present an integral formulation of classical Yang-Mills theory coupled to fermionic and scalar matter fields in (1+1)-dimensional Minkowski spacetime. By reformulating the local dynamics in terms of loop-space holonomies, we demonstrate…
Celestial symmetries of gravity and gauge theory can be enhanced to a $w_{1+\infty}$ algebra and an $S$-algebra respectively, when restricting to a single graviton/gluon helicity sector. Difficulties in combining both sectors in the full…
In this work, we investigate the scattering of spin-$3/2$ fermionic particles mediated by a Yukawa-like coupling in the context of the massive Rarita-Schwinger model. The interaction is introduced by replacing $m \to m_{\psi} + g\phi$ in…
We show that, in the collinear regime, the fixed--$j$ holographic double deeply virtual Compton scattering (DDVCS) amplitude contains the same hypergeometric hard kernel as the $\pm$-basis Wilson coefficients of perturbative QCD. Starting…
Holographic QCD reproduces the leading short-distance vector-current two-point function in vacuum, fixing the bulk gauge coupling by matching the logarithmic $Q^2$ dependence of the boundary current correlator. We show that this vacuum…
