Species entropy and thermodynamics
We analyse particle species and the species scale in quantum gravity from a thermodynamic perspective. In close analogy to black hole thermodynamics,...

A solvable model of flat space holography
We propose an explicit realization of flat space holography in two dimensions where both sides of the duality are independently defined and the...

Anisotropy with respect to the applied magnetic field of spin qubit decoherence times
Electron spin qubits are a promising platform for quantum computation. Environmental noise impedes coherent operations by limiting the qubit...

Nonlinearity and Topology
The interplay of nonlinearity and topology results in many novel and emergent properties across a number of physical systems such as chiral magnets,... -
OPE statistics from higher-point crossing
We present new asymptotic formulas for the distribution of OPE coefficients in conformal field theories. These formulas involve products of four or...

Almost all extremal black holes in AdS are singular
We investigate the geometry near the horizon of a generic, four-dimensional extremal black hole. When the cosmological constant is negative, we show...

Carrier Transport in Low-Dimensional Semiconductors
Carrier transport in semiconductors with reduced dimensions is determined by the low-dimensional density of states. In two-dimensional systems such... -
On exact-WKB analysis, resurgent structure, and quantization conditions
There are two well-known approaches to studying nonperturbative aspects of quantum mechanical systems: saddle point analysis of the partition...

Partition functions of the tensionless string
We consider string theory on AdS 3 × S 3 × 𝕋 4 in the tensionless limit, with one unit of NS-NS flux. This theory is conjectured to describe the...

Wormholes and black hole microstates in AdS/CFT
It has long been known that the coarse-grained approximation to the black hole density of states can be computed using classical Euclidean gravity....

An elliptic integrable deformation of the Principal Chiral Model
We introduce a new elliptic integrable σ -model in the form of a two-parameter deformation of the Principal Chiral Model on the group SL ℝ ( N ),...

A perturbative expansion scheme for supermembrane and matrix theory
We reconsider the supermembrane in a Minkowski background and in the light-cone gauge as a one-dimensional gauge theory of area preserving...

Supersymmetry and trace formulas. Part I. Compact Lie groups
In the context of supersymmetric quantum mechanics we formulate new supersymmetric localization principle, with application to trace formulas for a...

Analytical evaluation of AdS4 Witten diagrams as flat space multi-loop Feynman integrals
We describe a systematic approach for the evaluation of Witten diagrams for multi-loop scattering amplitudes of a conformally coupled scalar ϕ 4 -theory...

Quantum Supermembranes and AdS/CFT Duality
AbstractWe review and extend some recent work on testing AdS/CFT correspondence between U ( N ) k × U ( N ) – k Chern-Simons-matter 3d gauge theory and...

A derivation of AdS/CFT for vector models
We explicitly rewrite the path integral for the free or critical O ( N ) (or U( N )) bosonic vector models in d space-time dimensions as a path integral...

Repulsive black holes and higher-derivatives
In two-derivative theories of gravity coupled to matter, charged black holes are self-attractive at large distances, with the force vanishing at zero...

D-brane Masses at Special Fibres of Hypergeometric Families of Calabi–Yau Threefolds, Modular Forms, and Periods
We consider the fourteen families W of Calabi–Yau threefolds with one complex structure parameter and Picard–Fuchs equation of hypergeometric type,...
