The dynamics of three-forms in thick branes
In this work, we investigate thick brane models with a single three-form field. We find novel solutions for thick braneworlds where only three-forms exist and interact gravitationally in the bulk, both with and without matter fields. We use an additional

We present a new formalism to solve the kinematical constraints due to Weyl invariance for CFTs in curved backgrounds and/or non-trivial states, and we apply it to thermal CFTs and to CFTs on squashed spheres.

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.

A Late Pleistocene sea level stack
. Late Pleistocene sea level has been reconstructed from ocean sediment core data using a wide variety of proxies and models. However, the accuracy of individual reconstructions is limited by measurement error, local variations in salinity and ...

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.
