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

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.

A Study of the Early Cosmic Dynamics in a Multifield Model of Inflation and Curvature Perturbations
In this work, we study the cosmological dynamics of the early universe by employing a small field potential in the context of multifield inflation. By investigating analytically the cosmological observables, such as the number of e‐folds N, potential slow‐roll parameters ϵV, ηV, and spectral index ns which carry significant information, we show that ...

Probing quantum curves and transitions in 5d SQFTs via defects and blowup equations
We investigate codimension-2 defect partition functions and quantum Seiberg-Witten curves in 5d rank-1 supersymmetric QFTs, including non-Lagrangian and Kaluza-Klein theories.

Dualities of corner configurations and supersymmetric indices
We compute supersymmetric indices which count local operators at certain half-BPS interfaces and quarter-BPS junctions of interfaces in four-dimensional N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 Super Yang-Mills theory.

Super Yang-Mills theories with inhomogeneous mass deformations
We construct the 4-dimensional N = 1 2 $$ \mathcal{N}=\frac{1}{2} $$ and N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 inhomogeneously mass-deformed super Yang-Mills theories from the N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1* and N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2* theories, respectively, and analyse ...

The 5d tangram: brane webs, 7-branes and primitive T-cones
Two highly successful approaches to constructing 5d SCFTs are geometric engineering using M-theory on a Calabi-Yau 3-fold and the use of 5-brane webs suspended from 7-branes in Type IIB string theory.

Quadrality for supersymmetric matrix models
We introduce a new duality for N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 supersymmetric gauged matrix models. This 0d duality is an order 4 symmetry, namely an equivalence between four different theories, hence we call it Quadrality.

Mirror dualities with four supercharges
We consider 3d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 non-abelian Hanany-Witten brane setups with chiral flavor symmetry. We propose that the associated field theories are quivers with improved bifundamentals, instead of standard bifundamentals.
