Conifold Transitions in M-theory on Calabi-Yau Fourfolds with Background Fluxes [PDF]
, 2012 We consider topology changing transitions for M-theory compactifications on Calabi-Yau fourfolds with background G-flux. The local geometry of the transition is generically a genus g curve of conifold singularities, which engineers a 3d gauge theory with

Experimental study of laser detected magnetic resonance based on atomic alignment [PDF]
, 2006 We present an experimental study of the spectra produced by optical/radio-frequency double resonance in which resonant linearly polarized laser light is used in the optical pumping and detection processes.

Effective Actions for Massive Kaluza-Klein States on AdS_3 x S^3 x S^3 [PDF]
, 2005 We construct the effective supergravity actions for the lowest massive Kaluza-Klein states on the supersymmetric background AdS_3 x S^3 x S^3. In particular, we describe the coupling of the supergravity multiplet to the lowest massive spin-3/2 multiplet ...

Fracton Topological Order, Generalized Lattice Gauge Theory and Duality [PDF]
, 2016 We introduce a generalization of conventional lattice gauge theory to describe fracton topological phases, which are characterized by immobile, point-like topological excitations, and sub-extensive topological degeneracy. We demonstrate a duality between

Quasi-molecular bosonic complexes -- a pathway to atomic analog of SQUID with controlled sensitivity [PDF]
, 2016 Recent experimental advances in realizing degenerate quantum dipolar gases in optical lattices and the flexibility of experimental setups in attaining various geometries offer the opportunity to explore exotic quantum many-body phases stabilized by ...

4d Quantum Geometry from 3d Supersymmetric Gauge Theory and Holomorphic Block [PDF]
, 2016 A class of 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric gauge theories are constructed and shown to encode the simplicial geometries in 4-dimensions. The gauge theories are defined by applying the Dimofte-Gaiotto-Gukov construction in 3d/3d correspondence to ...

On the geometry and the moduli space of beta-deformed quiver gauge theories [PDF]
, 2007 We consider a class of super-conformal beta-deformed N=1 gauge theories dual to string theory on $AdS_5 \times X$ with fluxes, where $X$ is a deformed Sasaki-Einstein manifold.

Tropicalization of the moduli space of stable maps [PDF]
, 2015 Let $X$ be an algebraic variety and let $S$ be a tropical variety associated to $X$. We study the tropicalization map from the moduli space of stable maps into $X$ to the moduli space of tropical curves in $S$.

Weak del Pezzo surfaces with irregularity
, 2007 I construct normal del Pezzo surfaces, and regular weak del Pezzo surfaces as well, with positive irregularity q>0. Such things can happen only over nonperfect fields. The surfaces in question are twisted forms of nonnormal del Pezzo surfaces, which were

Mass generation of elementary particles and origin of the fundamental forces in algebraic quantum theory [PDF]
, 2007 The main thesis of this paper deals with the interactions of a set of fermions which are described by one basic type of bilinear interactions,two symmetric semiobjects,three embedded shells and four fundamental (strong) gravito-electro-magnetic forces ...
