Black holes, white holes, and near-horizon physics
Black and white holes play remarkably contrasting roles in general relativity versus observational astrophysics. While there is observational evidence for the existence of compact objects that are “cold, dark, and heavy”, which thereby are natural ...

Holographic complexity of the extended Schwarzschild-de Sitter space
According to static patch holography, de Sitter space admits a unitary quantum description in terms of a dual theory living on the stretched horizon, that is a timelike surface close to the cosmological horizon.

Testing the scalar weak gravity conjecture in no-scale supergravity
We explore possible extensions of the Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) to scalar field theories. To avoid charged black hole remnants, the WGC requires the existence of a particle with a mass m ≤ gqM P , with charge q and U(1) gauge coupling g, allowing the

Renormalization of the next-to-leading-power γγ → h and gg → h soft quark functions
We calculate directly in position space the one-loop renormalization kernels of the soft operators O γ and O g that appear in the soft-quark contributions to, respectively, the subleading-power γγ → h and gg → h form factors mediated by the b-quark.

Peccei-Quinn inflation at the pole and axion kinetic misalignment
We propose a minimal extension of the Standard Model with the Peccei-Quinn (PQ) scalar field and explain the relic density of the QCD axion through the kinetic misalignment with a relatively small axion decay constant. To this purpose, we consider a slow-

Gauge field fluctuation corrected QED3 effective action by fermionic particle-vortex duality
We present a non-perturbative framework for incorporating gauge field fluctuations into effective actions of QED3 in the infrared using fermionic particle-vortex duality.

Regge growth of isolated massive spin-2 particles and the Swampland
We consider an effective theory with a single massive spin-2 particle and a gap to the cutoff. We couple the spin-2 particle to gravity, and to other lower-spin fields, and study the growth of scattering amplitudes of the particle in the Regge regime ...

In this paper we initiate the study of six-dimensional non-linear chiral two-form gauge theories as deformations of free chiral two-form gauge theories driven by stress-tensor T T ¯ $$ T\overline{T} $$ -like flows.

Electroweak three-body decays in the presence of two- and three-body bound states
Recently, formalism has been derived for studying electroweak transition amplitudes for three-body systems both in infinite and finite volumes. The formalism provides exact relations that the infinite-volume amplitudes must satisfy, as well as a ...

Fast QSC solver: tool for systematic study of N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 Super-Yang-Mills spectrum
Integrability methods give us access to a number of observables in the planar N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SYM. Among them, the Quantum Spectral Curve (QSC) governs the spectrum of anomalous dimensions.
