Refined toric branes, surface operators and factorization of generalized Macdonald polynomials
We find new universal factorization identities for generalized Macdonald polynomials on the topological locus. We prove the identities (which include all previously known forumlas of this kind) using factorization identities for matrix model averages ...

Duality, Strings and Supergravity: a Status Report [PDF]
We will report on recent advances in the understanding of non-perturbative interconnections between different string dualities.Weak-strong coupling duality (S-duality) and T-duality (symmetry under compactification on dual tori) allows one to compare and

Long string scattering in c = 1 string theory
We study the scattering of long strings in c = 1 string theory, both in the worldsheet description and in the non-singlet sector of the dual matrix quantum mechanics. From the worldsheet perspective, the scattering amplitudes of long strings are obtained

From Wrapped Supermembrane to M(atrix) Theory From Wrapped Supermembrane to M(atrix) Theory
The issue of justifying the matrix-theory proposal is revisited. We first discuss how the matrix-string theory is derived directly starting from the eleven dimensional supermembrane wrapped around a circle of radius $R=g_s\ell_s$, without invoking any stringy assumptions, such as S- and T-dualities. This derivation provides us a basis for studying both

Coincidences between M(atrix) Theory and Algebraic QFT?
This is a preliminary account of coincidences between algebraic QFT and some recent observations on "light cone quantization" and applications to "M" theory.

Super Yang-Mills theory in 10+2 dimensions, The 2T-physics Source for N=4 SYM and M(atrix) Theory
In this paper we construct super Yang-Mills theory in 10+2 dimensions, a number of dimensions that was not reached before in a unitary supersymmetric field theory, and show that this is the 2T-physics source of some cherished lower dimensional field ...

Dead and alive: Belief in contradictory conspiracy theories. [PDF]
Conspiracy theories can form a monological belief system: a self-sustaining worldview comprised of a network of mutually supportive beliefs. The present research shows that even endorsement of mutually incompatible conspiracy theories are positively ...

Nonclassical Theories of Shells in Application to Soft Biological Tissues
Two non-classical theories for orthotropic plates of moderate thicknesses are discussed. In these theories both deformations, rotation and bending of the fibers and their elongations in the direction of the thickness of the shell are taken into account ...

Noncommutative Riemann surfaces [PDF]
We compactify M(atrix) theory on Riemann surfaces Sigma with genus g>1. Following [1], we construct a projective unitary representation of pi_1(Sigma) realized on L^2(H), with H the upper half-plane. As a first step we introduce a suitably gauged sl_2(R)
