Cap products in string topology [PDF]
Algebraic & Geometric Topology, 2009 Chas and Sullivan showed that the homology of the free loop space LM of an oriented closed smooth finite dimensional manifold M admits the structure of a Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) algebra equipped with an associative product called the loop product and a Lie bracket called the loop bracket.

Resonances and PT symmetry in quantum curves
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 In the correspondence between spectral problems and topological strings, it is natural to consider complex values for the string theory moduli. In the spectral theory side, this corresponds to non-Hermitian quantum curves with complex spectra and ...

A CMB Millikan experiment with cosmic axiverse strings
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 We study axion strings of hyperlight axions coupled to photons. Hyperlight axions — axions lighter than Hubble at recombination — are a generic prediction of the string axiverse.

Quantum periods and TBA-like equations for a class of Calabi-Yau geometries
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We continue the study of a novel relation between quantum periods and TBA(Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz)-like difference equations, generalize previous works to a large class of Calabi-Yau geometries described by three-term quantum operators.

Matrix Models from Operators and Topological Strings [PDF]
, 2015 We propose a new family of matrix models whose 1/N expansion captures the all-genus topological string on toric Calabi–Yau threefolds. These matrix models are constructed from the trace class operators appearing in the quantization of the corresponding ...

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We introduce a two-dimensional sigma model associated with a Jacobi manifold. The model is a generalisation of a Poisson sigma model providing a topological open string theory.

Topological aspects of string theories
Nuclear Physics B, 1987 In previous work, a new action principle for strings and superstrings in arbitrary dimensions was developed. It led to a classification of strings similar to the classification of point particles as massive, massless and tachyonic. Topological aspects of four-dimensional strings were also investigated.

Some Aspects of Mathematical and Physical Approaches for Topological Quantum Computation [PDF]
Computer Science Journal of Moldova, 2011 A paradigm to build a quantum computer, based on topological invariants is highlighted. The identities in the ensemble of knots, links and braids originally discovered in relation to topological quantum field theory are shown: how they define Artin ...

B-strings on non-Kählerian manifolds
Nuclear Physics B, 2016 We explain how to couple topological B-models whose targets are non-Kählerian manifolds to topological gravity and to thus define corresponding topological strings.
