Chaotic duality in string theory [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2004
We investigate the general features of renormalization group flows near superconformal fixed points of four dimensional N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories with gravity duals. The gauge theories we study arise as the world-volume theory on a set of D-branes at a Calabi-Yau singularity where a del Pezzo surface shrinks to zero size.

Strings, T-duality breaking, and nonlocality without the shortest distance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
T-duality of string theory suggests nonlocality manifested as the shortest possible distance. As an alternative, we suggest a nonlocal formulation of string theory that breaks T-duality at the fundamental level and does not require the shortest possible ...

Gauge/string duality applied to heavy-ion collisions: limitations, insights and prospects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Over the last decade a fruitful interplay has developed between analyses of strongly coupled non-Abelian plasmas via the gauge/string duality and the phenomenology of the quark–gluon plasma created in heavy-ion collisions.

Exotic hybrid pseudopotentials and gauge/string duality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We use gauge/string duality to model some hybrid pseudo-potentials in a pure SU(N) gauge theory. The pseudo-potentials under consideration can't be described by a single Nambu-Goto string. This is why we call them "exotic".

Dualities of fields and strings [PDF]

open access: yesStudies in History and Philosophy of Science Part B: Studies in History and Philosophy of Modern Physics, 2017
Duality, the equivalence between seemingly distinct quantum systems, is a curious property that has been known for at least three quarters of a century. In the past two decades it has played a central role in mapping out the structure of theoretical physics.

Self-Duality and Self-Similarity of Little String Orbifolds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We study a class of ${\cal N}=(1,0)$ little string theories obtained from orbifolds of M-brane configurations. These are realised in two different ways that are dual to each other: either as $M$ parallel M5-branes probing a transverse $A_{N-1 ...

T-duality in arbitrary string backgrounds [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 1996
T-Duality is a poorly understood symmetry of the space-time fields of string theory that interchanges long and short distances. It is best understood in the context of toroidal compactification where, loosely speaking, radii of the torus are inverted.

Surveying the Three-Dimensional Fixed Points of T-Duality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We explore the family of fixed points of T-Duality transformations in three dimensions. For the simplest nontrivial self-duality conditions it is possible to show that, additionally to the spacelike isometry in which the T-Duality transformation is ...

T-duality and high-derivative gravity theories: the BTZ black hole/string paradigm

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
We show that the temperature and entropy of a BTZ black hole are invariant under T-duality to next to leading order in M ⋆− 2, M ⋆ being the scale suppressing higher-curvature/derivative terms in the Lagrangian. We work in the framework of a twoparameter
