We construct the 11-dimensional lift of the known N=2 supersymmetric RG flow solution in 4-dimensional N=8 gauged supergravity. The squashed and stretched 7-dimensional internal metric preserving SU(2) x U(1) x U(1)_R symmetry contains an…

The supermembrane in light-cone gauge gives rise to a supersymmetric quantum mechanics system with SU(N) gauge symmetry when the group of area preserving diffeomorphisms is suitably regulated. de Wit, Marquard and Nicolai showed how…

Motivated by recent experiments with Bechgaard salts, we investigate the competition between antiferromagnetism and triplet superconductivity in quasi one-dimensional electron systems. We unify the two orders in an SO(4) symmetric…

We continue our study of scattering theory and dispersive properties for one-dimensional charge transfer models, namely linear Schr\"odinger equations with multiple moving potentials. By the discovery of a refined structure of the…

Zeta-function regularization is applied to evaluate the one-loop effective potential for SO(10) grand-unified theories in de Sitter cosmologies. When the Higgs scalar field belongs to the 210-dimensional irreducible representation of…

Using Matrix theory, we propose a technique on how to compute the entangle- ment entropy between a supergravity probe and modes on a spherical membrane. We demonstrate that a membrane stretched between the probe and the sphere entangles…

We use supertwistor space to construct scattering amplitudes of maximal superconformal theories in three and six dimensions. In both cases, the constraints of superconformal invariance and rationality imply that the three-point amplitude…

We examine basis functions on momentum space for the three dimensional Euclidean Snyder algebra. We argue that the momentum space is isomorphic to the SO(3) group manifold, and that the basis functions span either one of two Hilbert spaces.…

We argue that symmetry and unification can emerge as byproducts of certain physical constraints on dynamical scattering. To accomplish this we parameterize a general Lorentz invariant, four-dimensional theory of massless and massive scalar…

The scattering of quantum particles by non-hermitian (generally nonlocal) potentials in one dimension may result in asymmetric transmission and/or reflection from left and right incidence. Eight generalized symmetries based on the discrete…

We calculate the potential between various configurations of membranes and gravitons in M(atrix) theory. The computed potentials agree with the short distance potentials between corresponding 2-branes and 0-brane configurations in Type IIA…

We calculate the T-matrices of pseudoscalar meson octet-baryon scattering to one-loop order in SU(3) heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory. The pertinent combinations of low-energy constants are determined by fitting to phase shifts of…

One-dimensional scattering problems are of wide physical interest and are encountered in many diverse applications. In this article I establish some very general bounds for reflection and transmission coefficients for one-dimensional…

We formulate scattering in one dimension due to the coupled Schr\"{o}dinger equation in terms of the $S$ matrix, the unitarity of which leads to constraints on the scattering amplitudes. Levinson's theorem is seen to have the form $\eta(0)…

We introduce a generalization of the O(N) field theory to N-colored membranes of arbitrary inner dimension D. The O(N) model is obtained for D->1, while N->0 leads to self-avoiding tethered membranes (as the O(N) model reduces to…

Using unitarity methods, we compute, for several massive two-dimensional models, the cut-constructible part of the one-loop 2->2 scattering S-matrices from the tree-level amplitudes. We apply our method to various integrable theories,…

A self-contained discussion of nonrelativistic quantum scattering is presented in the case of central potentials in one space dimension, which will facilitate the understanding of the more complex scattering theory in two and three…

In 1980, Antonio Aurilia, Hermann Nicolai and I constructed an N=8 supergravity with a positive exponential potential for one of the 70 scalar fields by adapting the dimensional reduction of 11D supergravity to allow for a non-zero 4-form…

We argue that the moduli space for the Bagger-Lambert A_4 theory at level k is (R^8 \times R^8)/D_{2k}, where D_{2k} is the dihedral group of order 4k. We conjecture that the theory describes two M2-branes on a Z_{2k} ``M-fold'', in which a…

We offer a consistent dynamical formulation of stationary scattering in two and three dimensions that is based on a suitable multidimensional generalization of the transfer matrix. This is a linear operator acting in an infinite-dimensional…
