A string theory which isn’t about strings

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017
Quantization of closed string proceeds with a suitable choice of worldsheet vacuum. A priori, the vacuum may be chosen independently for left-moving and right-moving sectors.

Strings, branes, and gravity duals of gauge theories [PDF]

, 2002
We study the correspondence between certain supersymmetric gauge theories and their dual supergravity descriptions. Using low-energy brane probes of the super-gravity geometries we find moduli spaces of vacua, as expected from considering the dual gauge ...

Holographic boundary conformal field theory within Horndeski gravity

Journal of High Energy Physics
We investigate entanglement islands and the Page curve in the framework of Horndeski gravity on a Karch-Randall braneworld background. In particular, treating the holographic boundary conformal field theory analytically we find that the Horndeski ...

Fermionic T-duality and U-duality in type II supergravity [PDF]

, 2011
PhDThis thesis deals with the two duality symmetries of N = 2 D = 10 supergravity theories that are descendant from the full superstring theory: fermionic T-duality and U-duality.

Phases of 5d SCFTs from M-/F-theory on non-flat fibrations

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019
We initiate the systematic investigation of non-flat resolutions of non-minimal singularities in elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds. Compactification of M-theory on these geometries provides an alternative approach to studying phases of five ...

Strings, Conformal Field Theory and Noncommutative Geometry [PDF]

, 2004
This thesis describes some aspects of noncommutative geometry and conformal field theory. The motivation for the investigations made comes to a large extent from string theory.

W $$ \mathcal{W} $$ algebras are L∞ algebras

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017
It is shown that the closure of the infinitesimal symmetry transformations underlying classical W $$ \mathcal{W} $$ algebras give rise to L∞ algebras with in general field dependent gauge parameters.
