New self-dualities involving two index tensors are derived.
These new self-dualities are used to build various duality
cascades. Both vector like and chiral cascades are presented. Aside
from ending in confinement, these duality cascades can also...
The covariant holographic entanglement entropy formula expresses
the entropy of a given region in terms of the area of a certain
spacelike surface in the bulk. In holographic models of
thermalization involving gravitational collapse, it has been...
In this talk, I plan to review some of the recent advances in
anomaly induced transport processes with a focus on the relation
between Lorentz anomalies and thermal transport. The focus will be
on an interesting observable called `thermal helicity'...
I will review a lattice gauge theory construction of N=4
super-Yang-Mills that has been developed over the last several
years. It starts from a "twist" of the original N=4 theory which
was explicitly written out by Marcus. This twisted theory is
re...
In this talk, I will present some results on the entanglement
entropy due to the insertion of a Wilson loop in N=4 SYM and ABJM
and will talk about the radiation emitted by a quark in these
theories.
The construction of Abelian gauge symmetries in global F-theory
compactifications has been more elusive than the well studied
non-Abelian case. In this talk, I present a systematic approach to
engineer Abelian gauge factors in F-theory, which are...
