Actions for $D=2$, $N=2$ supergravity coupled to a scalar field are calculated, and it is shown that the most general power-counting renormalizable dilaton gravity action has an $N=2$ locally supersymmetric extension. The presence of chiral…
As an algebraic study of differential equations, differential algebras have been studied for a century and and become an important area of mathematics. In recent years the area has been expended to the noncommutative associative and Lie…
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.…
This paper pursues a twofold goal. First, we introduce and study in detail a new notion of variational analysis called generalized metric subregularity, which is a far-going extension of the conventional metric subregularity conditions. Our…
Ten-dimensional type II supergravity can be reformulated as a generalised geometrical analogue of Einstein gravity, defined by an $O(9,1)\times O(1,9)\subset O(10,10)\times\mathbb{R}^+$ structure on the generalised tangent space. To leading…
We characterize the geometrically doubling condition of a metric space in terms of the uniform $L^1$-boundedness of superaveraging operators, where uniform refers to the existence of bounds independent of the measure being considered.
In several contexts, supersymmetry can be reformulated in terms of calibrations, namely forms whose integrals measure minimal energies. It has been conjectured that this should be possible in general. For type II supergravity, we present a…
We report general properties of N-fold supersymmetry in one-dimensional quantum mechanics. N-fold supersymmetry is characterized by supercharges which are N-th polynomials of momentum. Relations between the anti-commutator of the…
There are three types of Dolbeault complexes arising from representations of holonomy group on a Riemannian manifold, two of which are dual to each other. Such a complex is elliptic if and only if its generator satisfies an algebraic…
We study the non-perturbative properties of N=2 super conformal field theories in four dimensions using localization techniques. In particular we consider SU(2) gauge theories, deformed by a generic epsilon-background, with four fundamental…
In this work, the Darmois-Israel junction formalism is extended to the case of discontinuous metrics within the framework of Colombeau algebras of generalized functions. This formulation provides a mathematically consistent treatment of…
Perturbation theory of vacuum spherically-symmetric spacetimes (including the cosmological constant) has greatly contributed to the understanding of black holes, relativistic compact stars and even inhomogeneous cosmological models. The…
Candidate counterterms break E7 type U-duality symmetry of $N \geq 5$ supergravity theories in four dimensions \cite{Kallosh:2011dp}. A proposal was made in \cite{Bossard:2011ij} to restore it, starting with a double set of vector fields…
One-dimensional sigma-models with N supersymmetries are considered. For conventional supersymmetries there must be N-1 complex structures satisfying a Clifford algebra and the constraints on the target space geometry can be formulated in…
The physical meaning of the particularly simple non-degenerate supermetric, introduced in the previous part by the authors, is elucidated and the possible connection with processes of topological origin in high energy physics is analyzed…
We focus on the geometrical reformulation of free higher spin supermultiplets in $4\rm{D},~\mathcal{N}=1$ flat superspace. We find that there is a de Wit-Freedman like hierarchy of superconnections with simple gauge transformations. The…
The notion of {\it generalised structure groups} and {\it generalised holonomy groups} has been introduced in supergravity, in order to discuss the spinor rotations generated by commutators of supercovariant derivatives when non-vanishing…
A construction of conservation laws for $\sigma$-models in two dimensions is generalized in the framework of noncommutative geometry of commutative algebras. This is done by replacing the ordinary calculus of differential forms with other…
In this work, we uncover a collection of non invertible topological operators linked to the 0-, 2-, 4- and 6-form symmetries related to the type IIB superstring effective theory. By pinpointing the $\text{SL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$-covariant…
We show that non-linear Schwarzian differential equations emerging from covariance symmetry conditions imposed on linear differential operators with hypergeometric function solutions, can be generalized to arbitrary order linear…
