Topological Strings and Integrable Hierarchies [PDF]
Communications in Mathematical Physics, 2005 We consider the topological B-model on local Calabi-Yau geometries. We show how one can solve for the amplitudes by using W-algebra symmetries which encodes the symmetries of holomorphic diffeomorphisms of the Calabi-Yau. In the highly effective fermionic/brane formulation this leads to a free fermion description of the amplitudes. Furthermore we argue

Cosmic necklaces in string theory and field theory [PDF]
, 2010 PhDIn this thesis we investigate astrophysical phenomena which arise in models with compact extra dimensions, focussing on the cosmological consequences of strings which wrap cycles in the internal space. Embedding our strings in the Klebanov-Strassler

String topology in three flavors [PDF]
EMS Surveys in Mathematical Sciences, 2023 We describe two major string topology operations, the Chas–Sullivan product and the Goresky–Hingston coproduct, from geometric and algebraic perspectives. The geometric construction uses Thom–Pontrjagin intersection theory while the algebraic construction is phrased in terms of Hochschild homology.

Nuclear Physics B, 2020 Perturbative string amplitudes are correctly derived from the string geometry theory, which is one of the candidates of a non-perturbative formulation of string theory. In order to derive non-perturbative effects rather easily, we formulate topological string geometry theory.

Nature Communications, 2021 Skyrmions are topological two-dimensional spin textures that in three-dimensional systems resemble strings or tubes. Here, using transmission electron microscopy Zheng et al observe the braiding of skyrmion strings in FeGe and predict this phenomenon for

Topological strings and Wilson loops
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We propose the refined topological string correspondence to the expectation values of half-BPS Wilson loop operators in 5d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 gauge theory partition function on the Omega-deformed background ℝ ϵ 1 , 2 4 $$ {\mathbb{R}}_{\upepsilon_{1,

Stability of topological solitons, and black string to bubble transition
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2022 We study the existence of smooth topological solitons and black strings as locally-stable saddles of the Euclidean gravitational action of five dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory.
