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.

Blowup equations for refined topological strings
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2018 Göttsche-Nakajima-Yoshioka K-theoretic blowup equations characterize the Nekrasov partition function of five dimensional N = 1 $$ \mathcal{N}=1 $$ supersymmetric gauge theories compactified on a circle, which via geometric engineering correspond to the ...

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 ...

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.

Holomorphic supergravity in ten dimensions and anomaly cancellation
Journal of High Energy PhysicsWe formulate a ten-dimensional version of Kodaira-Spencer gravity on a Calabi-Yau five-fold that reproduces the classical Maurer-Cartan equation governing supersymmetric heterotic moduli.

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.

Spectral sequences in string topology [PDF]
Algebraic & Geometric Topology, 2011 In this paper, we investigate the behaviour of the Serre spectral sequence with respect to the algebraic structures of string topology in generalized homology theories, specificially with the Chas-Sullivan product and the corresponding coproduct and module structures.

Topological Phase Transition in a One-Dimensional Elastic String System
Crystals, 2019 We show that topological interface mode can emerge in a one-dimensional elastic string system which consists of two periodic strings with different band topologies.
