Topology change and heterotic flux vacua
Journal of High Energy PhysicsWe investigate the interrelation between topology and Narain T-duality of heterotic flux vacua. We present evidence that all 5 and 4-dimensional Minkowski space heterotic flux backgrounds with 8 supercharges have a locus in the moduli space with a T-dual

Revisiting the multi-monopole point of SU(N) N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 gauge theory in four dimensions
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 Motivated by applications to soft supersymmetry breaking, we revisit the expansion of the Seiberg-Witten solution around the multi-monopole point on the Coulomb branch of pure SU(N) N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 gauge theory in four dimensions. At this point N

de Sitter Excited State in Heterotic E8×E8${\rm E}_8 \times {\rm E}_8$ Theory
Fortschritte der Physik, Volume 73, Issue 12, December 2025.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.

Reflection groups and 3d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ > 6 SCFTs
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 We point out that the moduli spaces of all known 3d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 8 and N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 6 SCFTs, after suitable gaugings of finite symmetry groups, have the form ℂ 4r /Γ where Γ is a real or complex reflection group depending on whether the

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 Candidate counterterms break E7 type U-duality symmetry of N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ ≥ 5 supergravity theories in four dimensions [1, 2]. A proposal was made in [3] to restore it, starting with a double set of vector fields and argued that a supersymmetric ...

Transcendentality violation in type IIB string amplitudes
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 We analyze transcendentality for certain terms that arise in multiloop amplitudes in the low momentum expansion of the four graviton amplitude in type IIB string theory in ten dimensions, based on the constraints of supersymmetry and S-duality.

Conformal manifolds and 3d mirrors of (D n , D m ) theories
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 The Argyres-Douglas (AD) theories of type (D n , D m ), realized by type IIB geometrical engineering on a single hypersurface singularity, are studied. We analyze their conformal manifolds and propose the 3d mirror theories of all theories in this class ...

Holomorphic field theories and higher algebra
Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 57, Issue 10, Page 2903-2974, October 2025.Abstract Aimed at complex geometers and representation theorists, this survey explores higher dimensional analogs of the rich interplay between Riemann surfaces, Virasoro and Kac‐Moody Lie algebras, and conformal blocks. We introduce a panoply of examples from physics — field theories that are holomorphic in nature, such as holomorphic Chern‐Simons ...

Multi-centered N = 2 $$ \mathcal{N}=2 $$ BPS black holes: a double copy description
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 We present the on-shell double copy dictionary for linearised N = 2 $$ \mathcal{N}=2 $$ supergravity coupled to an arbitrary number of vector multiplets in four dimensions.
