DIS off glueballs from string theory: the role of the chiral anomaly and the Chern-Simons term
We calculate the structure function F 3(x, q 2) of the hadronic tensor of deep inelastic scattering (DIS) of charged leptons from glueballs of N=4 $$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ SYM theory at strong coupling and at small values of the Bjorken parameter in the gauge/

Abstract In this article I consider type II superstring in the pure spinor formulation with constant background fields in the context of T‐dualization. First, I prove that bosonic and fermionic T‐dualization commute using already known T‐dual transformation laws for bosonic and fermionic T‐dualization.

Fermion masses in superstring theory [PDF]
We give a model-independent discussion of fermion masses in four-dimensional heterotic superstring theories. We discuss the tree level contributions and quantum corrections, including one-loop threshold effects and masses generated as a result of non-perturbative supersymmetry breaking. We also point out that superstring models give rise to a generic $

Supersymmetry in open superstring field theory
We realize the 16 unbroken supersymmetries on a BPS D-brane as invariances of the action of the corresponding open superstring field theory. We work in the small Hilbert space approach, where a symmetry of the action translates into a symmetry of the ...

de Sitter Excited State in Heterotic E8×E8${\rm E}_8 \times {\rm E}_8$ Theory
Abstract A novel duality sequence is devised to study late‐time cosmology in the heterotic E8×E8${\rm E}_8 \times {\rm E}_8$ setup of Horava and Witten with dynamical walls that are moving towards each other. Remarkably, the dimensionally reduced 4‐dimensional theory does not violate NEC and no bouncing or ekpyrotic phase is observed.

Tachyon condensation in superstring field theory [PDF]
It has been conjectured that at the stationary point of the tachyon potential for the D-brane-anti-D-brane pair or for the non-BPS D-brane of superstring theories, the negative energy density cancels the brane tensions. We study this conjecture using a Wess-Zumino-Witten-like open superstring field theory free of contact term divergences and recently ...

RNS superstring measure for genus 3
We propose a new formula for the RNS superstring measure for genus 3. Our derivation is based on invariant theory. We follow Witten’s idea of using an algebraic parametrization of the moduli space (which he applied to re-derive D’Hoker and Phong’s ...

Energy Symmetry Breaking of Dirac and Weyl Fermions in Magnetized Spinning Conical Geometries
Exact solutions for relativistic fermions in magnetized, spinning conical geometries reveal defect‐induced symmetry breaking between fermion and antifermion energies. Energy levels depend on the magnetic field, background geometry, and fractionalized spin. When the defect's spin dominates, quantum effects diminish.

Effective μ-term in superstring theory [PDF]
In four-dimensional compactifications of the heterotic superstring theory the K hler potential has a form which generically induces a superpotential mass term for Higgs particles once supersymmetry is broken at low energies. This ``$ $-term'' is analyzed in a model-independent way at the tree level and in the one-loop approximation, and explicit ...
