Subleading soft theorem for multiple soft gravitons
We derive the subleading soft graviton theorem in a generic quantum theory of gravity for arbitrary number of soft external gravitons and arbitrary number of finite energy external states carrying arbitrary mass and spin.

Higher-derivative heterotic Double Field Theory and classical double copy
The generalized Kerr-Schild ansatz (GKSA) is a powerful tool for constructing exact solutions in Double Field Theory (DFT). In this paper we focus in the heterotic formulation of DFT, considering up to four-derivative terms in the action principle, while

Dark Dimension With (Little) Strings Attached
Abstract A relation between dark energy and the scale of new physics in weakly coupled string theory is motivated. This mixing between infrared and ultraviolet physics leads to a unique corner for real‐world phenomenology: barring fine‐tunings, the authors are naturally led to the “dark dimension” scenario, a single mesoscopic extra dimension of micron

Braneworld black holes and black strings [PDF]
This thesis involves the study of strong and weak gravity phenomenology within the braneworld paradigm. We begin with a general overview of the hypothesised concept of extra spatial dimensions and explain why they are so interesting.

Fundamental Superstrings as Holograms
46 pages, JHEP style. v2: Comments, references addedThe worldsheet of a macroscopic fundamental superstring in the Green-Schwarz light-cone gauge is viewed as a possible boundary hologram of the near horizon region of a small black string. For toroidally

Heterotic sigma models on T 8 and the Borcherds automorphic form Φ12
We consider the spectrum of BPS states of the heterotic sigma model with (0, 8) supersymmetry and T 8 target, as well as its second-quantized counterpart.

Abstract S. Gukov and C. Vafa proposed a characterization of rational N=(1,1)$N=(1,1)$ superconformal field theories (SCFTs) in 1+1$1+1$ dimensions with Ricci‐flat Kähler target spaces in terms of the Hodge structure of the target space, extending an earlier observation by G. Moore.

On ℛ4 Terms and MHV Amplitudes in 𝒩 = 5,6 Supergravity Vacua of Type II Superstrings
We compute one‐loop threshold corrections to ℛ4 terms in 𝒩 = 5,6 supergravity vacua of Type II superstrings. We then discuss nonperturbative corrections generated by asymmetric D‐brane instantons. Finally we derive generating functions for MHV amplitudes at tree level in 𝒩 = 5,6 supergravities.

Worldsheet description of a massive type IIA superstring in 10D
We construct, following [1, 2], a massive M2-brane (supermembrane) as the limit of a genus two M2-brane that becomes a twice punctured Riemann surface with particular boundary conditions on the fields defined on the punctures.

T‐Symmetry in String Geometry Theory
String geometry theory is one of the candidates of nonperturbative formulation of string theory. In this paper, we have shown that dimensionally reduced string geometry theories have what we call T‐symmetry. In the case of the dimensional reduction in space‐like directions, the T‐symmetry transformation gives the T‐dual transformation between the Type ...
