Massive U(1) gauge field and their accompanying scalars in brane world
In brane-world scenarios, the effective action of a massless bulk \(U(1)\) gauge field preserves gauge invariance via couplings between massive vector Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes and scalar KK modes. In…

On the Flux Sectors of Matrix String Theory
We analyze the gapped flux vacua of 2D (8,8) SU(N) super-Yang-Mills theory. Based on the matrix string theory duality, we conjecture the spectrum of massive resonances in the gauge theory at large N…

Multipartite Non-local Magic and SYK Model
We investigate the structure of quantum magic in interacting disordered fermionic systems, quantifying non-stabilizerness via the fermionic stabilizer Rényi entropy (SRE). To resolve the distribution…

Bootstrapping the Finiteness of Leigh-Strassler Deformations and Uncovering Hidden Symmetries
In this paper, we follow a Bootstrap-like approach to determine the most restricted form the finiteness constraint F(q,g,h,κ), which relates the four parameters of N=1…

A note on dualities of F(4) type 3d N = 5 SCFTs
We suggest a new duality between a pair of 3d N = 5 SCFTs, one of ABJ type and one based on the exceptional superalgebra F (4). Our main evidence for the proposed duality is the matching of the…

Renormalization Group Is the Principle behind the Holographic Entropy Cone
We show that every holographic entropy inequality can be recast in the form: "some entanglement wedges reach deeper in the bulk than some other entanglement wedges." When the inequality is…

Quantum dynamics of cosmological particle production: interacting quantum field theories with matrix product states
Understanding real-time dynamics of interacting quantum fields in curved spacetime remains a major theoretical challenge. We employ tensor network methods to study such dynamics using interacting…

M5 brane to D4 brane via cyclification of rational relative 3-cohomotopy
In this article, we start by re-deriving the equations of motion and Bianchi identities for the abelian D4 brane worldvolume. Noting that the 4-flux in M-Theory is rationally flux quantized in a…

Axion Wormholes and the AdS/CFT Factorization Problem
This work investigates the relevance of Euclidean and complex axion wormholes to the AdS/CFT factorization problem. We use a framework that defines bulk gravitational path integrals by integrating…

Relativistic limit on the AdS3 × S3 × S3 × S1 string worldsheet
We study the relativistic limit of the worldsheet S matrix of AdS3 × S3 × S3 × S1 strings in the presence of mixed Ramond-Ramond (RR) and Neveu-Schwarz-Neveu-Schwarz (NS-NS)…

Color-kinematics duality from an algebra of superforms
Color-kinematics duality states that the kinematic numerators of the cubic tree-level Yang-Mills scattering amplitudes obey the same symmetry properties that the color factors obey due to the Jacobi…

Continuing past the inner horizon using WKB
Features of the black hole interior can be extracted from the analytic structure of boundary correlation functions. Working in the geodesic approximation, we find analytic continuations that probe…

On the temperature of the quantum black hole
A nontrivial peculiarity of general relativity is that when the horizon region of black holes is rendered harmless, the exterior doubles, resulting in a causally disconnected parallel universe. This…

Entanglement Viscosity: from Unitarity to Irreversibility in Accelerated Frames
We demonstrate that the unitarity of quantum field theory, through the positivity of spectral functions, underlies thermodynamic irreversibility for a subsystem separated by a horizon, in direct…

Wilson-'t Hooft classification and the perimeter law for dyonic loops in 3d monopole semiclassics
