Direct integration of the topological string [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2007 We present a new method to solve the holomorphic anomaly equations governing the free energies of type B topological strings. The method is based on direct integration with respect to the non-holomorphic dependence of the amplitudes, and relies on the interplay between non-holomorphicity and modularity properties of the topological string amplitudes ...

Hodge decomposition of string topology [PDF]
Forum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2021 AbstractLetXbe a simply connected closed oriented manifold of rationally elliptic homotopy type. We prove that the string topology bracket on the$S^1$-equivariant homology$ {\overline {\text {H}}}_\ast ^{S^1}({\mathcal {L}} X,{\mathbb {Q}}) $of the free loop space ofXpreserves the Hodge decomposition of$ {\overline {\text {H}}}_\ast ^{S^1}({\mathcal {L}

Transplanckian censorship and global cosmic strings
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 Large field excursions are required in a number of axion models of inflation. These models also possess global cosmic strings, around which the axion follows a path mirroring the inflationary trajectory. Cosmic strings are thus an interesting theoretical

Electroweak axion string and superconductivity
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We study the axion strings with the electroweak gauge flux in the DFSZ axion model and show that these strings, called the electroweak axion strings, can exhibit superconductivity without fermionic zeromodes. We construct three types of electroweak axion

Real topological string amplitudes [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 We discuss the physical superstring correlation functions in type I theory (or equivalently type II with orientifold) that compute real topological string amplitudes. We consider the correlator corresponding to holomorphic derivative of the real topological amplitude $G_ $, at fixed worldsheet Euler characteristic $ $.

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

Matrix Models from Operators and Topological Strings, 2 [PDF]
Annales de l'Institute Henri Poincare. Physique theorique, 2015 The quantization of mirror curves to toric Calabi–Yau threefolds leads to trace class operators, and it has been conjectured that the spectral properties of these operators provide a non-perturbative realization of topological string theory on these ...

Topological stars, black holes and generalized charged Weyl solutions
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021 We construct smooth static bubble solutions, denoted as topological stars, in five-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theories which are asymptotic to ℝ1,3×S1. The bubbles are supported by allowing electromagnetic fluxes to wrap smooth topological cycles.

Topological Strings from WZW Models [PDF]
Phys.Lett. B352 (1995) 286-297, 1994 We show that the BRST structure of the topological string is encoded in the ``small'' $N=4$ superconformal algebra, enabling us to obtain, in a non-trivial way, the string theory from hamiltonian reduction of $A(1|1)$. This leads to the important conclusion that not only ordinary string theories, but topological strings as well, can be obtained, or ...
