Self-duality and supersymmetry
We observe that the Hamiltonian H = D^2, where D is the flat 4d Dirac operator in a self-dual gauge background, is supersymmetric, admitting 4 different real supercharges. A generalization of this model to the motion on a curved conformally flat 4d manifold exists.

Review of Lattice Supersymmetry and Gauge-Gravity Duality [PDF]
We review the status of recent investigations on validating the gauge-gravity duality conjecture through numerical simulations of strongly coupled maximally supersymmetric thermal gauge theories.

Duality Covariant Type IIB Supersymmetry and Nonperturbative Consequences [PDF]
Type-IIB supersymmetric theories have an SL(2,Z) invariance, known as U-duality, which controls the non-perturbative behavior of the theory. Under SL(2,Z) the supercharges are doublets, implying that the bosonic charges would be singlets or triplets ...

Duality and supersymmetry breaking in string theory [PDF]
Abstract Target-space duality is incorporated in previously proposed effective actions describing non-perturbative supersymmetry breaking in string theory via gaugino condensation. Duality-preserving vacua with broken supersymmetry and fixed unified coupling constant do generically occur.

Transformation of Black-Hole Hair under Duality and Supersymmetry [PDF]
We study the transformation under the String Theory duality group of the observable charges (mass, angular momentum, NUT charge, electric, magnetic and different scalar charges) of four dimensional point-like objects whose asymptotic behavior constitutes

Twisted orientifold planes and S-duality without supersymmetry
We construct a novel orientifold of type IIB string theory that breaks all supersymmetries. It is a closed string theory without open sector and it can be understood as a Scherk-Schwarz deformation in which supersymmetry is restored at infinite radius ...

Supersymmetry and dualities [PDF]
Duality transformations with respect to rotational isometries relate supersymmetric with non-supersymmetric backgrounds in string theory. We find that non-local world-sheet effects have to be taken into account in order to restore supersymmetry at the string level.

Perturbative higher-derivative terms in N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 6 asymmetric orbifolds
We analyse the perturbative four-point amplitudes in the simplest string theory examples of T-fold backgrounds, which enjoy N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 6 supersymmetries in four dimensions.

Supersymmetry and gravitational duality [PDF]
We study how the supersymmetry algebra copes with gravitational duality. As a playground, we consider a charged Taub-NUT solution of D=4, N=2 supergravity. We find explicitly its Killing spinors, and the projection they obey provides evidence that the dual magnetic momenta necessarily have to appear in the supersymmetry algebra. The existence of such a
