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

Modular forms and SL(2, ℤ)-covariance of type IIB superstring theory

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2019
The local higher-derivative interactions that enter into the low-energy expansion of the effective action of type IIB superstring theory with constant complex modulus generally violate the U(1) R-symmetry of IIB supergravity by q U units.

Revisiting the multi-monopole point of SU(N) N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 gauge theory in four dimensions

open access: yesJournal 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

Duality Invariant Superstring Actions

open access: yes, 1994
Worldsheet supersymmetric string action is written in duality invariant form for flat as well as curved backgrounds. First the action in flat backgrounds is written by introducing auxiliary fields.

Foundations of Ghost Stability

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 73, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract The authors present a new method to analytically prove global stability in ghost‐ridden dynamical systems. The proposal encompasses all prior results and consequentially extends them. In particular, it is shown that stability can follow from a conserved quantity that is unbounded from below, contrary to expectation.

Conformal manifolds and 3d mirrors of (D n , D m ) theories

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Type IIB orbifolds with D5-branes and their string duals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We consider Z2, freely acting orbifolds of the type IIB string with 16 parallel D5-branes. When the string is compactified on T2 X T4 and the D5-branes are wrapped on T2, these systems possess N=2 supersymmetry, originating from the spontaneous, partial ...

Black-holes, Duality and Supersymmetry

open access: yes, 1997
In order to study the discrepancy between the supersymmetry bound and the extremality bound for rotating black holes, the effect of duality transformations on the class of stationary and axially symmetric string backgrounds, called the TNbh, is considerd.

Double Copy From Tensor Products of Metric BV■‐Algebras

open access: yesFortschritte der Physik, Volume 73, Issue 1-2, February 2025.
Abstract Field theories with kinematic Lie algebras, such as field theories featuring color–kinematics duality, possess an underlying algebraic structure known as BV■‐algebra. If, additionally, matter fields are present, this structure is supplemented by a module for the BV■‐algebra.

Hyperelliptic families and 4d N = 2 $$ \mathcal{N}=2 $$ SCFT

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
We classify four dimensional N = 2 $$ \mathcal{N}=2 $$ SCFTs whose Seiberg-Witten (SW) geometries can be written as hyperelliptic families. By using special Kähler condition of SW geometry, we reduce the problem to one parameter quasi-homogeneous ...
