Type II duality symmetries in six dimensions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
We discuss the different discrete duality symmetries in six dimensions that act within and between (i) the 10-dimensional heterotic string compactified on T^4, (ii) the 10-dimensional type IIA string compactified on K3 and (iii) the 10-dimensional type ...

Reflection groups and 3d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ > 6 SCFTs

open access: yesJournal 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

Supersymmetry constraints on U-duality invariant deformations of N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ ≥ 5 supergravity

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Infinite-dimensional algebraic Spin $$ \mathfrak{Spin} $$ (N) structure in extended/higher dimensional SUSY holoraumy for valise and on shell supermultiplet representations

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We explore the relationship between holoraumy and Hodge duality beyond four dimensions. We find this relationship to be ephemeral beyond six dimensions: it is not demanded by the structure of such supersymmetrical theories.

Holomorphic field theories and higher algebra

open access: yesBulletin 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 ...

Degrees of Metastability in Gauge Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Topics in Supersymmetry Breaking and Gauge/Gravity Dualities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
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 ...

Multi-centered N = 2 $$ \mathcal{N}=2 $$ BPS black holes: a double copy description

open access: yesJournal 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.

Polarisability and magnetisation of electrically K-mouflaged objects: the Born-Infeld ModMax case study

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We consider a family of non-linear theories of electromagnetism that interpolate between Born-Infeld at small distances and the recently introduced ModMax at large distances.

Dark Dimension With (Little) Strings Attached

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 73, Issue 4, April 2025.
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
