Quantum K-theory of Calabi-Yau manifolds

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019
The disk partition function of certain 3d N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theories computes a quantum K-theoretic ring for Kähler manifolds X. We study the 3d gauge theory/quantum K-theory correspondence for global and local Calabi-Yau manifolds with several ...

The 3d $A$-model and generalised symmetries, part I: Bosonic Chern-Simons theories

SciPost Physics
The 3d $A$-model is a two-dimensional approach to the computation of supersymmetric observables of three-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric gauge theories.

Supersymmetric probes of wrapped M5-brane backgrounds [PDF]

, 2006
In this thesis we consider supersymmetric probes in backgrounds sourced by an M5-brane which is wrapped on holomorphic 2-cycles in C(^2) and C(^3), respectively. For the first case, we use M2-brane probes to compute the BPS spectra of the corresponding N

Some Remarks on Rovelli's "Why Gauge?" [PDF]

, 2013
Rovelli's "Why Gauge?" offers a parable to show that gauge-dependent quantities have a modal and relational physical significance. We subject the morals of this parable to philosophical scrutiny and argue that, while his overarching point stands, there ...

Dimensional Enhancement via Supersymmetry

Advances in Mathematical Physics, 2011
We explain how the representation theory associated with supersymmetry in diverse dimensions is encoded within the representation theory of supersymmetry in one time-like dimension.

Supersymmetric quantization of gauge theories

, 1995
We develop a new operator quantization scheme for gauge theories in which the dynamics of the ghost sector is described by an N=2 supersymmetry. In this scheme no gauge condition is imposed on the gauge fields. The corresponding path integral is explicitly Lorentz invariant and, in contrast to the BRST-BFV path integral in the Lorentz gauge, it is free

Degrees of Metastability in Gauge Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking [PDF]

, 2011
This thesis consists of an investigation into supersymmetry and its breaking. Emphasis is placed on the question of metastability and the role of non-topological solitons in the hidden sector.

5d SCFTs and their non-supersymmetric cousins

SciPost Physics
We consider generalisations of the recently proposed supersymmetry breaking deformation of the 5d rank-1 $E_1$ superconformal field theory to higher rank.

Generalisations of the MHV lagrangian theory to D-dimensions and to super-space [PDF]

, 2010
It has been known that the CSW rules correctly reproduce all tree-level scattering amplitudes for perturbative non-abelian gauge theory but fail to explain some of the loop order results.
