Holomorphic field theories and higher algebra
Abstract Aimed at complex geometers and representation theorists, this survey explores higher dimensional analogs of the rich interplay between Riemann surfaces, Virasoro and Kac‐Moody Lie algebras, and conformal blocks. We introduce a panoply of examples from physics — field theories that are holomorphic in nature, such as holomorphic Chern‐Simons ...

On real and imaginary roots of generalised Okamoto polynomials
Abstract Recently, B. Yang and J. Yang derived a family of rational solutions to the Sasa–Satsuma equation, and showed that any of its members constitutes a partial‐rogue wave provided that an associated generalised Okamoto polynomial has no real roots or no imaginary roots.

A new de Sitter solution with a weakly warped deformed conifold
We revisit moduli stabilisation for type IIB flux compactifications that include a warped throat region corresponding to a warped deformed conifold, with an anti-D3-brane sitting at its tip.

A lower bound on volumes of end‐periodic mapping tori
Abstract We provide a lower bound on the volume of the compactified mapping torus of a strongly irreducible end‐periodic homeomorphism f:S→S$f: S \rightarrow S$. This result, together with work of Field, Kim, Leininger, and Loving [J. Topol. 16 (2023), no.

SO(32) heterotic standard model vacua in general Calabi-Yau compactifications
We study a direct flux breaking scenario in SO(32) heterotic string theory on general Calabi-Yau threefolds. The direct flux breaking, corresponding to hypercharge flux breaking in the F-theory context, allows us to derive the Standard Model in general ...

Legendrian non‐isotopic unit conormal bundles in high dimensions
Abstract For any compact connected submanifold K$K$ of Rn$\mathbb {R}^n$, let ΛK$\Lambda _K$ denote its unit conormal bundle, which is a Legendrian submanifold of the unit cotangent bundle of Rn$\mathbb {R}^n$. In this paper, we give examples of pairs (K0,K1)$(K_0,K_1)$ of compact connected submanifolds of Rn$\mathbb {R}^n$ such that ΛK0$\Lambda _{K_0}$

Scale separation from O-planes
Orientifold planes play a crucial role in flux compactifications of string theory, and we demonstrate their deep connection to achieving scale-separated solutions.

Two Micron‐Size Dark Dimensions
Abstract Two extra dimensions of micron scale might simultaneously address the gauge and cosmological hierarchy problems. In this paper various observational bounds in scenarios with one and two large extra dimensions are examined, to see if they are compatible with the micron scale.

Modeling General Asymptotic Calabi–Yau Periods
Abstract In the quest to uncovering the fundamental structures that underlie some of the asymptotic Swampland conjectures the authors initiate the general study of asymptotic period vectors of Calabi–Yau manifolds. The strategy is to exploit the constraints imposed by completeness, symmetry, and positivity, which are formalized in asymptotic Hodge ...

Consistent truncation and de Sitter space from gravitational instantons
We construct a four-dimensional consistent truncation to the bosonic part of the universal sector of Calabi-Yau IIA compactification (i.e. the gravity multiplet, one vectormultiplet, and one hypermultiplet) in the presence of background flux and ...
