Two-dimensional SCFTs from matter-coupled $$7D~N=2$$ 7DN=2 gauged supergravity
We study supersymmetric $$AdS_3\times M^4$$ AdS3×M4 solutions of $$N=2$$ N=2 gauged supergravity in seven dimensions coupled to three vector multiplets with $$SO(4)\sim SO(3)\times SO(3)$$ SO(4)∼SO(3)×SO(3) gauge group and $$M^4$$ M4 being a four ...

Sequestering in string theory [PDF]
We study sequestering, a prerequisite for flavor-blind supersymmetry breaking in several high-scale mediation mechanisms, in compactifications of type IIB string theory. We find that although sequestering is typically absent in unwarped backgrounds, strongly warped compactifications do readily sequester.

Quarter-BPS states, multi-symmetric functions and set partitions
We give a construction of general holomorphic quarter BPS operators in N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 4 SYM at weak coupling with U(N) gauge group at finite N. The construction employs the Möbius inversion formula for set partitions, applied to multi-symmetric ...

This talk begins with some history and basic facts about string theory and its connections with strong interactions. Comparisons of stacks of Dirichlet branes with curved backgrounds produced by them are used to motivate the AdS/CFT correspondence between superconformal gauge theory and string theory on a product of Anti-de Sitter space and a compact ...

Supersymmetric domain walls in 7D maximal gauged supergravity
We give a large class of supersymmetric domain walls in maximal seven-dimensional gauged supergravity with various types of gauge groups. Gaugings are described by components of the embedding tensor transforming in representations $$\mathbf {15}$$ 15 and

Reductions of exceptional field theories
Double Field Theory (DFT) and Exceptional Field Theory (EFT), collectively called ExFTs, have proven to be a remarkably powerful new framework for string and M-theory.

String theory and string Newton–Cartan geometry* [PDF]
Abstract Nonrelativistic string theory is described by a sigma model with a relativistic worldsheet and a nonrelativistic target spacetime geometry, that is called string Newton–Cartan geometry. In this paper we obtain string Newton–Cartan geometry as a limit of the Riemannian geometry of general relativity with a fluxless two-form ...

We summarize recent progress in the understanding of minimal string theory, focusing on the worldsheet description of physical operators and D-branes. We review how a geometric interpretation of minimal string theory emerges naturally from the study of the D-branes.

Supersymmetric RG flows and Janus from type II orbifold compactification
We study holographic RG flow solutions within four-dimensional $$N=4$$ N = 4 gauged supergravity obtained from type IIA and IIB string theories compactified on $$T^6/\mathbb {Z}_2\times \mathbb {Z}_2$$ T 6 / Z 2 × Z 2 orbifold with gauge, geometric and ...
