Gauge and General Coordinate Invariance in Non-Polynomial Closed String Field Theory [PDF]
An appropriate field configuration in non-polynomial closed string field theory is shown to correspond to a general off-shell field configuration in low energy effective field theory. A set of string field theoretic symmetries that act on the fields in low energy effective field theory as general coordinate transformation and antisymmetric tensor gauge

Holographic Schwinger-Keldysh effective field theories
We construct a holographic dual of the Schwinger-Keldysh effective action for the dissipative low-energy dynamics of relativistic charged matter at strong coupling in a fixed thermal background.

Amplitude/operator basis in chiral perturbation theory
We establish a systematic construction of the on-shell amplitude/operator basis for Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) in D = 4 spacetime dimensions and with an arbitrary number of flavors N f .

Operator dimensions from moduli
We consider the operator spectrum of a three-dimensional N = 2 $$ \mathcal{N}=2 $$ superconformal field theory with a moduli space of one complex dimension, such as the fixed point theory with three chiral superfields X, Y, Z and a superpotential W = XYZ.

Loops in AdS: from the spectral representation to position space. Part II
We continue the study of AdS loop amplitudes in the spectral representation and in position space. We compute the finite coupling 4-point function in position space for the large-N conformal Gross Neveu model on AdS 3.

Homological classification of topological terms in sigma models on homogeneous spaces
We classify the topological terms (in a sense to be made precise) that may appear in a non-linear sigma model based on maps from an arbitrary worldvolume manifold to a homogeneous space G/H (where G is an arbitrary Lie group and H ⊂ G).

Ghostbusters: unitarity and causality of non-equilibrium effective field theories
: For a non-equilibrium physical system defined along a closed time path (CTP), a key constraint is the so-called largest time equation, which is a consequence of unitarity and implies causality.

Chern-Simons-matter theories at large baryon number
We study SU(2) Chern-Simons theories at level k coupled to a scalar on T 2 × ℝ at large baryon number. We find a homogeneous but anisotropic ground state configuration for any values of k on the IR fixed-point of those models.

Virtual photon effects in D=3 Born-Infeld theory [PDF]
One loop effects due to virtual gauge field propagation in 2+1 dimensional Born-Infeld theory are investigated. Although this field theory model is not power counting renormalizable, it can be consistently interpreted as an effective field theory. We derive the one-loop effective action in this framework.

Abstract The past two decades have produced extensive evidence on the manifold and severe outcomes for victims of aggression exposure in the workplace. However, due to the dominating individual‐centered approach, most findings miss a social network perspective.
