The problem of decomposition of unitary irreps of (super) tensorial (i.e. extended with tensorial charges) Poincar{\'e} algebra w.r.t. its different subalgebras is considered. This requires calculation of little groups for different…
We construct a Lorentz invariant massive particle model in (2+1) space-time with an enlarged set of symmetries which includes Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS) translations (supertranslations), using the non-linear realization framework. The…
We find a sixteen supersymmetric mass-deformed Bagger-Lambert theory with $SO(4)\times SO(4)$ global R-symmetry. The R-charge plays the `non-central' term in the superalgebra. This theory has one symmetric vacuum and two in-equivalent…
We consider curves of marginal stability (CMS) in CP(N-1) models in two dimensions with N = (2, 2) supersymmetry. In these theories, one can introduce twisted mass terms. The BPS spectrum has different number of states in the weak and…
Taking seriously the hypothesis that the full symmetry algebra of M-theory is osp(1|32,R), we derive the supersymmetry transformations for all fields that appear in 11- and 12-dimensional realizations and give the associated SUSY algebras.…
In $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM with $U(N)$ gauge symmetry, the multiplicity of half-BPS states with fixed dimension can be labelled by Young diagrams and can be distinguished using conserved charges corresponding to Casimirs of $U(N)$. The…
The Dirac-Born-Infeld action with transverse scalar fields is considered to study the dynamics of various BPS states. We first describe the characteristic properties of the so-called 1/2 and 1/4 BPS states on the D3 brane, which can be…
We propose a program for counting microstates of four-dimensional BPS black holes in N >= 2 supergravities with symmetric-space valued scalars by exploiting the symmetries of timelike reduction to three dimensions. Inspired by the…
We determine the local symmetries and local transformation properties of translationally invariant matrix product states (MPS). We focus on physical dimension $d=2$ and bond dimension $D=3$ and use the procedure introduced in D. Sauerwein…
We consider a bound state problem for a family of supersymmetric gauge theories with fundamental matter. These theories can be obtained by a dimensional reduction of supersymmetric QCD from three dimensions to 1+1 and subsequent truncation…
We study new cohomologies for the BPS operators of the $\mathcal{N}=4$ Yang-Mills theory with $SU(3)$ and $SU(4)$ gauge groups, to better understand the black hole microstates. We first study the index of these black hole operators and…
We study the positive energy unitary representations of 2N extended superconformal algebras OSp(8*|2N) in six dimensions. These representations can be formulated in a particle basis or a supercoherent state basis, which are labeled by the…
We study a class of exact supersymmetric solutions of type IIB Supergravity. They have an SO(4) x SU(2) x U(1) isometry and preserve generically 4 of the 32 supersymmetries of the theory. Asymptotically AdS_5 x S^5 solutions in this class…
This review considers the properties of classical solutions to supergravity theories with partially unbroken supersymmetry. These solutions saturate Bogomol'ny-Prasad-Sommerfield bounds on their energy densities and are the carriers of the…
We extend the study of BPS equations in ${\cal N}=1/2$ super Yang-Mills theory to the case of models with gauge symmetry breaking. We first consider an Abelian gauge-Higgs supersymmetric Lagrangian in $d=4$ dimensional Euclidean space…
We study a large class of BPS surface defects in 4d N=2 gauge theories. They are defined by coupling a 2d N=(2,2) gauged linear sigma model to the 4d bulk degrees of freedom. Our main result is an efficient computation of the effective…
Matrix factorisations describe B-type boundary conditions in N=2 supersymmetric Landau-Ginzburg models. At the infrared fixed point, they correspond to superconformal boundary states. We investigate the relation between boundary states and…
In this paper we study the BPS state counting in the geometry of local obstructed curve with normal bundle O+O(-2). We find that the BPS states have a framed quiver description. Using this quiver description along with the Seiberg duality…
This paper focuses on supergravity duals of BPS states in N=4 super Yang-Mills. In order to describe these duals, we begin with a sequence of breathing mode reductions of IIB supergravity: first on S^3, then S^3 x S^1, and finally on S^3 x…
In these lectures we explain the concept of supergravity p-branes and BPS black holes. Introducing an audience of general relativists to all the necessary geometry related with extended supergravity (special geometry, symplectic embeddings…
