Topics in Supersymmetry Breaking and Gauge/Gravity Dualities [PDF]
The thesis covers two topics in string theory and quantum field theory. First, we realize metastable vacua in various supersymmetric gauge theories. Specifically, we consider the Coulomb branch of any N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theory, and perturb it by ...

One-loop renormalisation of N=1/2 supersymmetric gauge theory [rapid communication] [PDF]
We show that N = 1 2 supersymmetric gauge theory is renormalisable at one loop, but only after gauge invariance is restored in a non-trivial fashion.

Integrability and maximally helicity violating diagrams in n=4 supersymmetric yang-mills theory. [PDF]
We apply maximally helicity violating (MHV) diagrams to the derivation of the one-loop dilatation operator of N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in the SO(6) sector.

Quantum simulation of gauge theory via orbifold lattice [PDF]
We propose a new framework for simulating U(k) Yang-Mills theory on a universal quantum computer. This construction uses the orbifold lattice formulation proposed by Kaplan, Katz, and Unsal, who originally applied it to supersymmetric gauge theories. Our

Localization and Dualities in Three Dimensional Superconformal Field Theories [PDF]
In this thesis we apply the technique of localization to three-dimensional N=2 superconformal field theories. We consider both theories which are exactly superconformal, and those which are believed to flow to nontrivial superconformal fixed points, for

On gauge dependence of the one-loop divergences in 6D, N=(1,0) and N=(1,1) SYM theories
We study the gauge dependence of one-loop divergences in a general matter-coupled 6D, N=(1,0) supersymmetric gauge theory in the harmonic superspace formulation.

A supersymmetric extension of quantum gauge theory
AbstractWe consider a supersymmetric extension of quantum gauge theory based on a vector multiplet containing supersymmetric partners of spin 3/2 for the vector fields. The constructions of the model follows closely the usual construction of gauge models in the Epstein‐Glaser framework for perturbative field theory.

Gauge Theory and Supergravity Duality in the PP-Wave Background [PDF]
We test the matrix theory conjecture in the pp-wave by studying two-body interactions between gravitons and membranes. We compute the one-loop effective potential of matrix theory and compare it to the light cone Lagrangian of linearized supergravity. We

Duality walls in the 4d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 SU(N) gauge theory with 2N flavours
S-duality domain walls are extended objects in supersymmetric gauge theories with several rich physical properties. This paper focuses on 3d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 gauge theories associated with S-duality walls in the 4d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 SU(N ...

Supersymmetric Gauge Theories with Decoupled Operators and Chiral Ring Stability. [PDF]
We propose a general way to complete supersymmetric theories with operators below the unitarity bound, adding gauge-singlet fields that enforce the decoupling of such operators.
