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.

Dualities of 5d gauge theories from S-duality
We describe a general method to determine dualities between supersymmetric 5d gauge theories. The method is based on performing local S-dualities in the geometry associated to the gauge theory.

Bootstrapping BPS spectra of 5d/6d field theories
We propose a systematic approach to computing the BPS spectrum of any 5d/6d supersymmetric quantum field theory in Coulomb phases, which admits either gauge theory descriptions or geometric descriptions, based on the Nakajima-Yoshioka’s blowup equations.

Comments on global symmetries, anomalies, and duality in (2 + 1)d [PDF]
We analyze in detail the global symmetries of various (2 + 1)d quantum field theories and couple them to classical background gauge fields. A proper identification of the global symmetries allows us to consider all non-trivial bundles of those background

Noncommutative Sp(2,R) Gauge Theories - A Field Theory Approach to Two-Time Physics [PDF]
Phase-space and its relativistic extension is a natural space for realizing Sp(2,R) symmetry through canonical transformations. On a Dx2 dimensional covariant phase-space, we formulate noncommutative field theories, where Sp(2,R) plays a role as either a

A modified Villain formulation of fractons and other exotic theories [PDF]
We reformulate known exotic theories (including theories of fractons) on a Euclidean spacetime lattice. We write them using the Villain approach and then we modify them to a convenient range of parameters.

On covariant actions for chiral p-forms
We construct a Lorentz and generally covariant, polynomial action for free chiral p-forms, classically equivalent to the Pasti-Sorokin-Tonin (PST) formulation.

We investigate self-dualities in three-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric gauge theories. The electric and magnetic theories share the same gauge group. The examples include $SU(2N)$, $SO(7)$ and $SO(8)$ with various matter contents.

Spin(7) orientifolds and 2d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = (0, 1) triality
We present a new, geometric perspective on the recently proposed triality of 2d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = (0, 1) gauge theories, based on its engineering in terms of D1-branes probing Spin(7) orientifolds.

Duality, Superconvergence and the Phases of Gauge Theories [PDF]
Results about the phase structure of certain N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories, which have been obtained as a consequence of holomorphy and `electric-magnetic' duality, are shown to be in quantitative agreement with corresponding consequences of ...
