Condensates and Singularities in String Theory

, 1993
We derive a class of solutions to the string sigma-model equations for the closed bosonic string. The tachyon field is taken to form a constant condensate and the beta-function equations at one-loop level are solved for the evolution of the metric and ...

Three-point functions in c <= 1 Liouville theory and conformal loop ensembles [PDF]

, 2015
The possibility of extending the Liouville Conformal Field Theory from values of the central charge $c \geq 25$ to $c \leq 1$ has been debated for many years in condensed matter physics as well as in string theory.

When Biology Meets Medicine: A Perspective on Foundation Models

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Artificial intelligence, and foundation models in particular, are transforming life sciences and medicine. This perspective reviews biological and medical foundation models across scales, highlighting key challenges in data availability, model evaluation, and architectural design.

Fission, fusion, and 6D RG flows

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019
We show that all known 6D SCFTs can be obtained iteratively from an underlying set of UV progenitor theories through the processes of “fission” and “fusion”.

Towards Advanced Intelligent and Perceptive Soft Grippers

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Implementing soft yet strong and intelligent soft grippers request innovative and creative solutions in designing soft bodies and seamlessly integrating actuated systems with hierarchical sensing. This review systematically analyses soft grippers with a deep understanding of core components, from fundamental design principles to actuation and sensing ...

Current-current deformations, conformal integrals and correlation functions

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020
Motivated by the recent work on T T ¯ $$ T\overline{T} $$ -type deformations of 2D CFTs, a especial class of single-trace deformations of AdS3/CFT2 correspondence has been investigated.

A worldsheet description of instant folded strings

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023
Time-like linear dilaton backgrounds admit a classical solution that describes a closed folded string that is created at an instant. We refer to such strings as Instant Folded Strings (IFS).

String duality transformations in $f(R)$ gravity from Noether symmetry approach

, 2016
We select $f(R)$ gravity models that undergo scale factor duality transformations. As a starting point, we consider the tree-level effective gravitational action of bosonic String Theory coupled with the dilaton field.

The psychosocial toll of Dublin III on asylum seekers in the Netherlands

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Dublin III Regulation determines which EU Member State is responsible for examining asylum claims, but its implementation carries significant consequences for those subjected to it. This study examines how Dublin III, as implemented in the Netherlands, affects asylum seekers' psychosocial wellbeing using Silove′s Adaptation and Development

Bulk-induced D-brane deformations and the string coupling constant

Journal of High Energy Physics
We consider computing the on-shell disk action of open-closed string field theory as a gauge-invariant way of capturing the shift in D-brane tension that is induced by a deformation of the bulk CFT.
