String theory of supertubes [PDF]
A bstractString theory on AdS3 backgrounds arises as an IR limit of Little String Theory on NS5-branes. A wide variety of holographic RG flows from the fivebrane theory in the UV to (orbifolds of) AdS3 in the IR is amenable to exact treatment in ...

Strings from Membranes and Fivebranes [PDF]
Under the six-dimensional heterotic/type $IIA$ duality map, a solitonic membrane solution of heterotic string theory transforms into a singular solution of type $IIA$ theory, and should therefore be interpreted as a fundamental membrane in the latter ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

Backreacted axion field ranges in string theory [PDF]
A bstractString theory axions are interesting candidates for fields whose potential might be controllable over super-Planckian field ranges and therefore as possible candidates for inflatons in large field inflation.

Twist Field as Three String Interaction Vertex in Light Cone String Field Theory
It has been suggested that matrix string theory and light-cone string field theory are closely related. In this paper, we investigate the relation between the twist field, which represents string interactions in matrix string theory, and the three-string

E‐String Theory on Riemann Surfaces [PDF]
We study compactifications of the 6d E‐string theory, the theory of a small E8 instanton, to four dimensions. In particular we identify N=1 field theories in four dimensions corresponding to compactifications on arbitrary Riemann surfaces with punctures ...

String Scattering Amplitudes and Deformed Cubic String Field Theory
We study string scattering amplitudes by using the deformed cubic string field theory which is equivalent to the string field theory in the proper-time gauge.

Predictions for PP-wave string amplitudes from perturbative SYM [PDF]
The role of general two-impurity multi-trace operators in the BMN correspondence is explored. Surprisingly, the anomalous dimensions of all two-impurity multi-trace BMN operators to order g_2^2\lambda' are completely determined in terms of single-trace ...
