The Self-Dual String and Anomalies in the M5-brane

open access: yes, 2004
We study the anomalies of a charge $Q_2$ self-dual string solution in the Coulomb branch of $Q_5$ M5-branes. Cancellation of these anomalies allows us to determine the anomaly of the zero-modes on the self-dual string and their scaling with $Q_2$ and ...

A SymTFT for continuous symmetries

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
Symmetry is a powerful tool for studying dynamics in QFT: it provides selection rules, constrains RG flows, and often simplifies analysis. Currently, our understanding is that the most general form of symmetry is described by categorical symmetries which

(0,4) brane box models

open access: yes, 2018
Two-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(0,4)$ supersymmetric quiver gauge theories are realized as D3-brane box configurations (two dimensional intervals) which are bounded by NS5-branes and intersect with D5-branes.

Anomalies and D-branes in the Dabholkar-Park background

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We consider D-branes in the Dabholkar-Park (DP) background, a 9d orientifold theory obtained by gauging symmetry in the type IIB string theory compactified on a circle.

Anomalies & Tadpoles

open access: yes, 2000
We show that massless RR tadpoles in vacuum configurations with open and unoriented strings are always related to anomalies. RR tadpoles arising from sectors of the internal SCFT with non-vanishing Witten index are in one-to-one correspondence with ...

Constraints on the topology of Type IIB string theory

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We discuss some topological constraints on Type IIB string theory that cannot be described by elementary characteristic classes. Anomaly cancellation of the worldvolume theory of a D3-brane requires a shifted Dirac quantization condition of the Ramond ...

Varieties of four-dimensional gauge theories

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We use algebraic geometry to study the anomaly-free representations of an arbitrary gauge Lie algebra for 4-dimensional spacetime fermions. For irreducible representations, the problem reduces to studying the Lie algebras 𝔰𝔲 n for n ≥ 3.

Candidate Phases for SU(2) Adjoint QCD$_4$ with Two Flavors from $\mathcal{N}=2$ Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory

open access: yes, 2018
We study four-dimensional adjoint QCD with gauge group SU(2) and two Weyl fermion flavors, which has an $SU(2)_R$ chiral symmetry. The infrared behavior of this theory is not firmly established.
