Duality cascades and affine Weyl groups
Brane configurations in a circle allow subsequent applications of the Hanany-Witten transitions, which are known as duality cascades. By studying the process of duality cascades corresponding to quantum curves with symmetries of Weyl groups, we find a ...

T‐Symmetry in String Geometry Theory
String geometry theory is one of the candidates of nonperturbative formulation of string theory. In this paper, we have shown that dimensionally reduced string geometry theories have what we call T‐symmetry. In the case of the dimensional reduction in space‐like directions, the T‐symmetry transformation gives the T‐dual transformation between the Type ...

Coulomb branches of a set of 3d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 supersymmetric gauge theories are closures of nilpotent orbits of the algebra son $$ \mathfrak{so}(n) $$.

(p − 1)-bracket for Dp-branes in large R-R field background
The volume-preserving diffeomorphism is a key feature that characterizes the large constant R-R (p − 1)-form field background in a Dp-brane theory. It represents a symmetry of the theory that preserves the volume of space.

Open String Renormalization Group Flow as a Field Theory
Abstract This article shows that the integral flow‐lines of the RG‐flow of open string theory can be interpreted as the solitons of a Hořova–Lifshitz sigma‐model of open membranes. The authors argue that the effective background description of this model implies the g‐theorem of open string theory.

A Goldstone theorem for continuous non-invertible symmetries
We study systems with an Adler-Bell-Jackiw anomaly in terms of non-invertible symmetry. We present a new kind of non-invertible charge defect where a key role is played by a local current operator localized on the defect.

de Sitter State in Heterotic String Theory
Abstract Recent no‐go theorems have ruled out four‐dimensional classical de Sitter vacua in heterotic string theory. On the other hand, the absence of a well‐defined Wilsonian effective action and other related phenomena also appear to rule out such time‐dependent vacua with de Sitter isometries, even in the presence of quantum corrections.

SL(2, ℤ) dualities of boundary conditions in Abelian M2-brane SCFTs
We propose SL(2, ℤ) dualities of supersymmetric boundary conditions in the three-dimensional supersymmetric field theories describing a semi-infinite M2-brane terminating on M5-branes. Specifically, we present dualities of boundary conditions for Abelian

Gauge/Bethe correspondence from quiver BPS algebras
We study the Gauge/Bethe correspondence for two-dimensional N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = (2, 2) supersymmetric quiver gauge theories associated with toric Calabi-Yau three-folds, whose BPS algebras have recently been identified as the quiver Yangians.

Thick Branes in Horndeski Gravity
We investigate thick brane solutions in the Horndeski gravity. In this setup, we found analytical solutions, applying the first‐order formalism to two scalar fields where the first field comes from the nonminimal scalar‐tensor coupling and the second is due to the matter contribution sector.
